Breakdown of Pricing
Before installing your new athletic flooring, your existing floor may require preparation such as leveling. Some old floors may need removal.
Costs can range from $0 to $10 per sq. ft., depending on the condition of your current floor and the necessary steps to prepare the space.
- Minimal Preparation ($0 per sq. ft.) – Your surface is ready for installation with little to no work required. Maybe just a good cleaning.
- Moderate Preparation ($1–$3 per sq. ft.) – Includes minor repairs, adhesive removal, or leveling adjustments.
- Extensive Preparation ($4–$10 per sq. ft.) – Could involve full floor removal, concrete grinding, or even hazardous material abatement (such as asbestos remediation in older facilities).
Please reference our flooring specifications or give us a call and we'd be happy to help assess your space to determine the best approach to preparing your space.
Many times, we refer you to flooring preparation/removal specialists as this can help you save costs.

One of the major benefits of Sport Court® flooring is its low maintenance and lowest lifecycle costs compared to traditional athletic flooring. Here's what to expect over the lifespan of your floor:
- Daily Light Cleaning – Simple damp-mopping or vacuuming to remove dust and debris. CourtClean towels drag works great! 1 Person, 1 Hour of work
- Monthly or Yearly Deep Cleaning – Auto scrubbing with a manufacturer-approved cleaner to maintain surface integrity. 2 People doing 2 hours of work
- Individual Tile Replacement – If damage occurs, modular tiles allow for easy replacement without costly resurfacing. Usually no cost, we leave you with closet stock and teach you how to do this yourself. $6 to $10 per sq foot if a larger area.
- Rescreening Costs – Unlike wood floors, standard Sport Court tiles never require sanding or refinishing, saving thousands in long-term maintenance. The UV Cured high gloss floors would not require rescreening for 20 years or more.
By choosing Sport Court®, you’re investing in a safe, durable, long-lasting flooring system that minimizes upkeep and extends the life of your facility’s surface.
Financing Options
