Terms & Conditions

What you can rely on from this site, and what only a signed contract can promise.

Effective date: October 4, 2026

These Terms govern your use of flpicklecourts.com (the "Site") and the estimates, renderings, and proposals we provide through it. "We," "us," and "FL Pickle Courts" mean FL Pickle Courts, a Florida business operating from Sarasota. Using the Site or submitting a request means you accept what follows. If any of it does not work for you, please do not use the Site.

One theme runs through this whole document, so we will put it up front: nothing on this Site is a binding offer or a fixed price. A Florida court is priced from the ground under it, and we cannot see your ground from a web form. Only a written proposal signed by both of us commits either of us to anything.

1. Who you are dealing with

FL Pickle Courts designs pickleball courts and installs Laykold® acrylic surfacing systems on new slabs, converted slabs, and courts being resurfaced. We are an authorized Laykold installer and a design consultant.

We are licensed and insured. Where your project involves work regulated under chapter 489, Florida Statutes — structural concrete, electrical for court lighting, plumbing relocation — that work is performed under appropriate license, whether by us or by a licensed trade partner, and we will tell you plainly which parts of your project fall where. Certificate of insurance available on request.

We are an independent Florida business. We are not Advanced Polymer Technology Corp. (the manufacturer of Laykold), and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by USA Pickleball®, the Professional Pickleball Association, Major League Pickleball, the United States Tennis Association, or any tournament or governing body. Where we reference a tournament played on Laykold surfacing, we are describing the product, not claiming a relationship with the event.

2. What our instant estimate actually is

The estimator on this Site multiplies your selections by per-square-foot rates. It is a planning range, not a quote. It does not know what is under your lot, and in Florida that is most of the cost question. Every one of the following can move the real number, sometimes substantially:

  • Subgrade conditions — loose sand, muck or other organic soil that has to be excavated and replaced, or fill that needs compaction testing
  • Depth to the water table, and whether the slab needs an engineered drainage plan to shed a Florida wet season
  • Grade change across the pad, and how much cut and fill that implies
  • Site access for concrete trucks and equipment, and what has to be protected or removed to get them in
  • County and municipal permitting, engineering, and impervious surface limits
  • HOA or deed-restriction review, where applicable
  • Material availability and current concrete pricing

A binding price exists only in a written proposal signed by an authorized representative of FL Pickle Courts. If our on-site findings differ from what the estimator assumed, the signed proposal governs and the web figure is void.

3. Renderings, colors, and images

Images in our gallery and elsewhere on the Site are design renderings, produced to show layouts, surrounds, color schemes, and lighting. They are illustrative. They are not photographs of specific completed projects, and they do not depict any particular customer's property.

Colours shown on screen and in the 3D Court Designer are approximations. Installed color varies with your monitor, ambient light, surface texture, the number of coats, manufacturer batch variation, and product availability. Where color matters to you, ask us for a physical sample before you sign, and we will get you one.

4. Florida permitting, HOA review, and site conditions

Permitting for a residential court is set by your county or municipality, and requirements differ meaningfully across the areas we serve. Impervious surface ratio caps, setbacks from seawalls and easements, drainage review, and windborne-debris considerations for lighting and fencing are all local questions, answered from your survey and your parcel rather than from a general rule.

Nothing on this Site is a representation that a court can be permitted on your property, that it will fit within applicable coverage limits, or that an HOA or architectural review board will approve it. We will run those questions during design and give you a straight answer, including when the honest answer is that your lot will not take the court you were hoping for. Responsibility for HOA and deed-restriction compliance rests with the property owner unless your signed contract says otherwise.

5. If we sign a contract: Florida construction lien law

Work on Florida real property is subject to Florida's Construction Lien Law, sections 713.001–713.37, Florida Statutes. For a direct contract with an owner over $2,500 to improve residential property of up to four units, section 713.015 requires a specific statutory warning about construction liens, in capitalised bold type, signed and dated by the owner.

Where that requirement applies to your project, the disclosure will appear in your contract as the statute prescribes. Florida's lien law is genuinely complicated, and the statute itself recommends you consult an attorney. We agree with the statute. Your signed contract — not this page — sets payment terms, lien releases, change-order procedure, scope, and schedule.

6. SMS Communications and Consent

By providing your phone number and checking an applicable SMS consent box, you consent to receive text messages from FL Pickle Courts at the number provided. Depending on the box you select, messages may include project alerts, estimate and appointment updates, service communications, or marketing and promotional messages. Consent applies only to the message category you select and is not a condition of purchase. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply.

You can cancel the SMS service at any time by texting STOP to (941) 369-8525 or replying STOP to any FL Pickle Courts text message. After you send STOP, we may send one SMS confirming that you have been unsubscribed. After that confirmation, you will no longer receive SMS messages from that messaging program. To join again, sign up through the same consent process you used originally.

If you are experiencing issues with the messaging program, reply HELP for assistance, email hello@flpicklecourts.com, or call (941) 369-8525.

Wireless carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. Message and data rates may apply to messages sent to you from us and from you to us. Contact your wireless provider with questions about your text or data plan.

For information about how we handle personal information and SMS consent records, read our Privacy Policy.

7. Using this Site

To request services through the Site you must be at least 18 and able to enter a binding contract. Please give us accurate information — an estimate built on a wrong court size or a wrong address is useless to both of us. Do not attempt to interfere with the Site: no malware, no bulk scraping, no accessing it outside the interfaces we provide, no probing for vulnerabilities.

8. Our content, and other people's marks

Text, graphics, photographs, renderings, 3D models, estimator logic, and code on this Site belong to FL Pickle Courts or our licensors. You may view the Site for your own non-commercial purposes. Republishing it, or building something derivative from it, needs our written permission first.

Laykold® and Laykold Chill® are registered trademarks of Advanced Polymer Technology Corp. Dominator™ is a trademark of its respective owner; we are an independent reseller and installer of those net systems. We use both marks only to identify products we are authorized to supply and install. All other marks belong to their owners.

The Site links to third-party sites we do not control, including manufacturer pages. We are not responsible for their content or practices, and a link is not an endorsement.

9. Warranty

Nothing on this Site is a warranty. Estimates, renderings, color previews, and descriptive copy carry no warranty of any kind.

Installed work is covered by the warranty terms written into your signed contract. Two distinct warranties are usually involved and they are worth keeping separate in your head:

  • Manufacturer warranty on the surfacing system, offered by Advanced Polymer Technology Corp. on Laykold products, subject to their published terms. Manufacturer warranties generally depend on the system being installed to specification, which is what our authorization is for. Net systems carry their own manufacturer warranty.
  • Workmanship warranty on our installation, stated in your contract.

Manufacturer terms are set by the manufacturer and can change without notice to us. Ask for the current warranty documents before you sign and we will provide them. Ordinary wear, settlement from causes outside our scope, storm and flood damage, neglected cleaning, and unapproved coatings or repairs applied by others are typically excluded — your contract will say exactly what is and is not covered on your court.

10. Disclaimers and limits on our liability

THE SITE AND ITS CONTENT, ESTIMATES, DESIGNS, AND RENDERINGS ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, OR UNINTERRUPTED AVAILABILITY.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT FLORIDA LAW PERMITS, FL PICKLE COURTS AND ITS OWNERS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING FROM THE SITE OR FROM RELIANCE ON ANY ESTIMATE, RENDERING, OR OTHER CONTENT ON IT. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SITE WILL NOT EXCEED ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100).

This section is about the Site. It does not limit liability for installation work, which is governed entirely by your signed contract, and it does not waive any right you cannot waive under Florida law.

11. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless FL Pickle Courts and its owners, employees, and agents against claims, damages, liabilities, and reasonable attorneys' fees arising from your misuse of the Site or your breach of these Terms.

12. Governing law and where disputes are heard

Florida law governs these Terms, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. Any dispute arising from these Terms or your use of the Site will be brought exclusively in the state courts of Sarasota County, Florida, or in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida, and you consent to personal jurisdiction there. If your project is under a signed contract, any dispute-resolution clause in that contract controls over this section.

13. Changes, severability, and the whole agreement

We may revise these Terms by posting an updated version with a new effective date; continuing to use the Site after that means you accept the revision. If a court finds any provision unenforceable, the rest stays in force. These Terms are the entire agreement between us regarding the Site, and they do not modify a signed construction contract.

Florida's construction lien law and telephone solicitation rules in particular carry consequences worth discussing with an attorney before you sign anything.
