Dink Pro Courts Guide

Choose a delivery model that matches capability

A referral is the simplest model when the landscaper does not want to carry court construction risk. A managed subcontract creates one client contract but requires stronger estimating, coordination and warranty administration.

The landscaper may self-perform compatible site and planting work while the specialist handles court-critical construction. Do not blur responsibilities simply to make the proposal look turnkey.

Design the backyard as one system

Coordinate court elevation, drainage, access, pool interfaces, walls, irrigation, lighting, planting, seating and shade. The court should not be dropped into leftover space after the landscape is designed.

Reserve the construction route and locate underground work before hardscape and planting restrict access.

Sell a complete but accurate scope

Describe the client outcome, then list what is included and by whom. Use a schedule of values and labelled options for fencing, lighting, multi-sport lines and upgraded surfaces.

Avoid promising fixed timelines, permit handling, referral benefits or warranty terms until the specialist confirms them in writing.
