The cost to construct, surface or resurface a basketball court, varies depending on the requirements. However, Premier Sports and Leisure prides itself on supplying all customers with multiple options that allow the client to customise the extent of works to be completed, therefore also allowing them to be in control of the overall price.
Asphalt:
Asphalt has a lower initial cost of installation but will begin to deteriorate quickly. At five years, structural cracks have developed or are developing, as well as birdbaths, which are depressions in the asphalt. Major restoration work of the courts surface will be required after 20 years. Asphalt can become damaged easier than concrete by ground movement. The asphalt can also become damaged by bad drainage and tree roots which is why it is essential that the base preparation is perfect before laying the base.
Concrete:
Reinforced concrete courts need to be 100mm thick. The concrete to pumped in with F82 reinforcing mesh placed on 50/65 bar chairs. All courts should be poured simultaneously. This is the most structurally sound method of construction. And after many years there should be no structural damage to the court.
There is a selection of high quality cushioned acrylic systems available in Australia. A cushioned court is designed to reduce sports related injuries i.e. ankle, knee and lower back areas through Force Reduction (FR) whilst also returning the energy to the athlete reducing fatigue through Energy Restitution (ER). This means better performance and more endurance.
Premier Mat Cushion is a pre-fabricated rubber mat designed to float and bridge cracked and moving substrates. This is an ideal solution to permanently hide cracks on courts and have a premium cushioned system.
