Tennis Court Resurfacing and Repair - Mid Atlantic Asphalt
First, we lay the foundation - asphalt or concrete. The most important part is that sport courts need a solid, stable base made of the finest asphalt mix or the most durable concrete. We make sure to add two asphalt layers. A tennis court is not merely a patch of asphalt or concrete painted green. These layers are necessary for surface durability.

Surface asphalt, which contains smaller, fine stone in the asphalt mix, is less porous then binder asphalt which helps prevent water infiltration of the pavement. Because surface asphalt is not as strong as binder, it is usually the first layer to deteriorate. In this instance, asphalt resurfacing is a good option.

Asphalt Paving - Binder & Topcoat » Alpha Paving
The topcoat is the layer of asphalt that is visible on the surface of the pavement, so it is sometimes called the finish course. To create a surface that is smooth and aesthetically appealing, smaller aggregate is used for the topcoat than for the binder. Most topcoats contain aggregate that is slightly smaller than a half an inch.
