Playing basketball can be a great activity whether you have a group of friends or just want to practice your free throws. But traveling to the rundown neighbourhood courts can be a bit of a drag, especially when they have fallen into disrepair. If you’re serious about playing hoops, you’ll want to explore installing your very own basketball court that’s low maintenance and made with synthetic turf. Choose from synthetic grass or soft fall rubber for the court that meets your exact needs.

At Surface Pro Group, we know a thing or two about basketball and how to design a court to suit any backyard setup. That’s why we’re the leading installer of synthetic turf for basketball courts on the Gold Coast, Brisbane and the surrounds. With over 50 years of combined experience, we know what layout will work best when you’re ready to do some layups.

Depending on your needs, you may choose to opt for synthetic turf or soft fall rubber for your court surface. Both have an advantage over tiles or concrete so that you don’t have to worry about dead spots, uneven surfacing, and uneven or unexpected bounces. 

Synthetic turf comes in a variety of different material and thickness options, making it a great choice for a basketball court that you might want to double up as another activity or entertaining space when you aren’t playing around. These surfaces add value to your property as well as flexibility and ease of use and maintenance. They often work great for shooting around and half courts for a bit of backyard fun.

If you’re looking for something that is more dedicated to the sport, then consider soft fall rubber, also known as wet pour rubber. These surfaces can be customised with different colours and layouts so that you can create the court of your dreams. The surface also has the added benefit of being hard wearing and high performing for use in back gardens to commercial applications. 

✔️ Convenience and ease of use

✔️ Low maintenance effort

✔️ Durable and hard wearing

✔️ Fully customisable options

✔️ Year-round usage

That’s going to be dictated by a few factors, namely size and material. If you’re looking to build a half court, that will obviously cost less because of materials and installation than if you want a full size court. Other factors that affect pricing include: 

• Access: How hard it is for the installers to reach and prepare the space you intend to use.  
• Base: Whether you need to prepare the ground with additional materials prior to install.
• Material: Costs for wet pour rubber can be higher than installing synthetic grass.
• Time: Synthetic grass takes one day whereas rubber installation can take up to four days.

You’re likely to benefit directly from the manufacturer warranties on the materials you choose for the court surface itself. Most fall into the 7-12 year range, but this can vary depending on the exact material. It’s also good to ask your installer if they offer any workmanship warranties on the installation itself. While your warranty might only last 7 years, the good news is that with proper installation and care, you can expect your court to last in excess of 10-15 years before you need to think about repairs or replacement. 

Installing a basketball court, even a half size one, is a great way to improve the aesthetic and usability of your back garden, council space or childcare centre. Plus, it’s a great space to spend time with family and friends and have a bit of fun along the way without having to pack up and use dilapidated and overcrowded public courts.

The key is making sure that you choose the right installer for the job so your court will be built to last. At Surface Pro Group, we have more than 50 years of experience installing surfaces of all shapes, colours, and sizes, so you’ll be sure to get the court you want at a price you can afford. What’s more, our manager has direct experience in his career working with concreting, drainage, and compliance requirements, so you can rest assured your court will be built to specification and your satisfaction. 

You can get started with your basketball court project for free today. Just call in on 1300 521 612 to request your no-obligation quote. We’ll take a trip out to your property or site to measure and discuss your options, then provide you with complete project details within 24 hours. 

While not every potential home buyer will be looking for a basketball court in the back garden, it can certainly add value overall to your property. The upgrade often makes use of underutilised space in a yard that would otherwise be left to maintain. 

Whether you go with synthetic grass or rubber court material, both are nearly zero maintenance once you have them installed by the pros. Feel free to give the surface a rinse with a garden hose or leaf blower to keep it clear of debris or dirt on occasion. Aside from that, you shouldn’t have to worry about care for the surface.  

They both have their pros and their cons. You’ll find that with synthetic grass, you get an even bounce while also dampening the sound with a layer that works to stifle the acoustics. Rubber surfaces, on the other hand, leave more room for creativity with lines and colour schemes. Both are viable surfaces for bouncing the ball and taking your shots. 

No. This is usually dictated either by personal preference or the space you have available in your garden to begin with. If you have the room and want to go big, go for it. If you only have the space for a 10m x 10m court, that can still be a great size for playing around.
