Christian Park Indianapolis
Christian Park is a good example of how much debris can accumulate on a tennis court over time. This debris will form damns against the fence line of the courts. Left unchecked these dams will prevent water drainage and decay to feed mold growth on the courts.

Eastern Illinois University
The courts at Eastern Illinois University were cleaned in preparation for a new surface to be applied. In these cases far higher pressure is used than other forms of cleaning. This is also a good example of how blue court surfaces will stripe easier than other colors. This is likely due to blue pigments oxidizing in sunlight at a higher rate than other pigments.

Cleaning for a new surface
The Bridgewater Club
The Bridgewater Club in Carmel presents a good example of the difference between cleaning types. On the left the courts were cleaned in preparation for a new surface. On the right, 2 years later the courts were cleaned with our normal chemical and low pressure process. The difference is clearly visible in the blue sections of the courts.
