OLD GREENWOOD · SINCE 1965

Courts, playgrounds, and sport surfaces in Old Greenwood.

Old Greenwood is a short run east from the yard, right off the Interstate 80 corridor through Truckee. Robert E. Sutton Co. works out of Truckee, licensed in California and Nevada, and court and playground striping is one of the three things we do. Call (530) 587-4161.

What the work involves

Court lines, playground layouts, and game surfaces painted to the right dimensions. Mountain courts take the same UV and freeze punishment as everything else, so the surface underneath usually needs attention before the lines go down.

Why it matters at this elevation

Layout accuracy is most of the job. Accurate dimensions, correct spacing, and markings placed where they are supposed to be matter more than the brand of paint. Getting that right on fresh sealcoat, while the old lines are gone, is the easiest it will ever be.

In the low 6,000s the season is real but not generous. Pavement at this elevation usually needs the snow gone and the base genuinely dry before sealer will bond, which in most years puts the start in June. Fall closes the window early too, so crack work is the piece that has to happen before the weather turns.

How the job runs

On a resealed surface the striping goes onto fresh black, which is both the best looking and the best bonding version of the job. On existing pavement we work over the ghost lines. Either way the paint needs dry pavement and enough warmth to set before traffic returns.

Old Greenwood pavement specifically

Private road networks, clubhouse and amenity lots, cart paths, and member driveways. The mix means a season here often combines sealcoating on the roads with striping on the lots and crack work across everything.

Proximity to the freeway makes this one of the more accessible communities we work, which matters at the end of a season when the calendar is tight and weather is closing the window on higher ground.

Old Greenwood is a short run east from the yard, right off the Interstate 80 corridor through Truckee.

Markings here have to survive plow blades and months under snow, so the restripe cycle runs shorter than an owner would expect from a lot down the hill.

Old Greenwood sits at roughly 5,900 feet, and the pavement around it behaves accordingly. More on the area on our Old Greenwood service area page. We work the same corridor through Gray’s Crossing, Truckee, Glenshire, Prosser, and the pavement guides go deeper on the physics if you want it.

Questions

Do I need anything done before the court and playground striping?

Usually cracks. Sealing a surface without closing the cracks first leaves the water a way in under a nice new finish. We handle both, and we sequence them in the right order.

How often should this be repeated in Old Greenwood?

Crack work is close to annual up here because every winter opens something new. Surface and striping work runs on a cycle measured in a few years, shorter on plowed and heavily used pavement.

Is there a minimum job size?

No. Driveways are a large share of what we do and small jobs get grouped efficiently on the schedule. The thing that makes a small job hard is calling in late August, not the size of it.
