How Much Does a Custom Basketball Court Cost
Designing your own custom basketball court, whether for your backyard, school, or sporting facility, is an exciting investment. But one of the first questions most people ask is:
How much does a custom basketball court cost?
The short answer is that it depends on a range of factors, from size and surface type to hoop systems and accessories. We will break down the key elements that influence the total cost of a court so you can plan with confidence.
1. Court Size
The bigger the court, the higher the cost, not just in materials, but also in excavation, concrete and court surface.
For example, the following are starting price estimates based on DIY installation using our entry-level Cornerstone Courts tiles, which are available for immediate purchase through the Cornerstone Courts online shop.
Compact Backyard Court starts from 4 x 4m2 – starting from $880
3-point medium size court 4 x 7m2 – starting from $1540
3-point large 6 x 10m2 – starting from $3300
2. Cornerstone Custom Court Tile Surfaces
Different surfaces have different price points and range from entry level to competition grade court builds:
- TPE (rubber, competition-grade) sports flooring for elite performance, and
- PP (polypropylene – hard plastic, cost effective) flooring for durability and great value
3. Hoop Systems
A high-quality hoop is essential — especially for performance and safety.
Basketball hoop estimate pricing:
- Portable hoops: starting from $299
- Entry-level fixed hoop: $1,000–$2,500
- Mega Slam or pro-grade adjustable systems: $2,800 –$4,500+
