Backyard Sports Court Cost

  

A comprehensive guide to the cost components that go into building and installing a genuine Sport Court Game Court. This download will help you understand the cost of installing a game court and/or a backyard basketball court. There are several key considerations when pricing a game court; it's not just about the game court surface selection. A court can also significantly increase the value of your property. However, knowing how much a backyard basketball court costs is essential before deciding on building one in your backyard. On average, a backyard basketball court shall cost from 10000 to 80000 dollars. The pricing depends on the type, size, and standard of the court.

When determining the cost of your Sport Court, there are a variety of factors that comes into play when designing building your court. One major factor that affects pricing is the size of the court. The larger the court is, the higher the cost of the sport court installation. It is essential to consider the size of the court as well as other factors that can alter the cost of the construction.

There are five major components to your basketball court costs, including:

Site Preparation

Before building your sport, there needs to be a flat surface to build on. The first step of the installation process is to prepare your property. This can include leveling, excavating, grading, and any other work that is needed to make your installation site hard and flat to provide a stable foundation for your sport court. The accessibility of your property is another factor that can affect costs. If your property is difficult to access and can’t accommodate specific equipment, it can draw out the preparation process and require specialized equipment to get the job done.

The more work that is required to prep the site, the higher the cost can become.

Base/Foundation Material

The base material is the material used as a foundation for your court. The base material may include asphalt, concrete, modular bases, or crushed stone. In many cases, courts are built on tops of a 4” concrete slab, using ½” rebar reinforcements. If you plan to keep your sport court as a permanent structure on your property, concrete is the ideal base material. Asphalt, on the other hand, can deteriorate through repeated freezing and thawing cycles in areas like Pittsburgh Pittsburgh, requiring repair and maintenance over time.

Modular bases give you a less permanent base if lot coverage or zoning restrictions are an issue.

Sport Court Surface

The surfacing of your court can be paint, modular, or acrylic surfacing, each with their own cost and benefits. Depending on the type of surfacing you choose, it can lower or raise the price. At Sport Court of Pittsburgh, we can help you choose the best kind of surfacing to ensure you get a sport court that best suits your needs.

Sport Court Components

The components are the exciting part of the court construction and provide the accessories that make your backyard sport court unique. Sport court components include things such as basketball hoops, containment netting, lighting, rebounders, ad net systems. Prices for these accessories vary. Whether you are an avid tennis player and want a net installed or are looking for a basketball hoop to enjoy with family, Sport Court of Pittsburgh can accommodate your needs with a wide range of court components.

Sports Court Installation

Installing the court and its components is the final step to the process. The cost of labor for your court installation and line painting takes roughly 1-2 days. As long as no issues arise, the only cost associated with the installation is the cost of labor.

Your backyard sport court is a significant investment, requiring a lot of your time, money, and energy. Don’t let your efforts go to waste by using a contractor that is uninsured, unlicensed, or inexperienced in building sport courts. Without an experienced contractor, you will not receive the support, care, and quality that you need to avoid future issues.

Cost of a full court basketball court can range from $10,000-$24,000*

Half-court cost can range between $2,700-8,300*

  • This may seem rather obvious, but the larger your court, the more costs you will incur for excavation, base preparation and court tile. While budget or space limitations may dictate the size of court you can build, it is important to keep in mind that plastic court tile courts can expand and contract by 2-3 inches and that it is nice for players to have some space beyond the edge of the courts. You will also need room for basketball hoop to be mounted and it is ideal to have some space around the basket so that players doing layups have some room.

  • The ideal base for a VersaCourt basketball court is a 4” thick concrete slab using 3000 PSI concrete and #4 rebar reinforcements. You can learn more about base and subsurfacing options, but for the purpose of this analysis, we are highlighting the most popular and most highly recommended base. Concrete slabs built to our general specifications typically run $4 to $10 per square foot* but can vary based on the following:

    • Are there any grading, excavating or drainage issues that need to be addressed?
    • Can a pump truck reach the area where the concrete is being poured?
    • Do building codes or the environment require thicker edges, vapor barriers, expanded foam subsurfacing or the use of wire mesh?

    While VersaCourt provides general concrete specifications for each of their court systems, local state and building codes vary and should be taken into consideration when determining the cost of a backyard basketball court base.

    Once again, most VersaCourt customers find that their local concrete contractors can provide a bid on this aspect of the project. They can also typically bid on pouring the piers for the goal post, net post sleeves, fencing and lights for multi-sport game court applications.

    *This price could vary depending on the specifics of your project. This price does not include site prep.

  • No basketball court is complete without at least one basketball goal while full size courts typically utilize two goals.

  • Building a basketball court requires an extremely flat, hard surface. Depending on your space, making an area flat may be one of your biggest costs as there are many variables:

    • How big is the space that needs to be excavated?
    • Who will do the excavation…you, a landscape company, a concrete company?
    • Can the space be easily accessed by a skidsteer?
    • Will any retaining walls need to be constructed?
    • Will any drainage issues need to be addressed?

    Most VersaCourt customers find that their local concrete contractors can provide a bid on this aspect of the project for those not wishing to engage in this aspect of the project.

  • Once you get the costs for installing the concrete base, determining the costs for the VersaCourt tile surfacing and its assembly is relatively easy. Simply view our standard court kits or call us for pricing on a custom court size. VersaCourt basketball courts are completely designed, assembled and painted prior to shipment so when you receive your shipment, you basically just need to lay them out on your concrete slab according to the enclosed diagram and click them together.
