We supply three different types of Hinged Ruby Post Lifters two of which require the use of a tractor.  If you are unsure which suits you best then please Contact Us to discuss your requirements.

Tennis Court Grit

grit for tennis courts

An excellent surface for private tennis courts with benefit that it can be “adjusted” to suit your style of play as the proportion of loose grit changes the speed of the play, height of bounce and degree of slip. It is also kinder on the knees!
