Outdoor Basketbal Court & Backyard
Sports Flooring

Yes! Many customers choose to do these projects on their own. If you already have a concrete or asphalt pad in place and are looking to spruce it up by overlaying our tile system, DIY is the way to go. Or, you can hire your trusted local contractor to build the base for the court and install the tiles to keep your costs down.

Yes! Matéflex ships worldwide. Please contact a representative about your project and we will be able to assemble your pricing with international freight included.

Game lines are masked out using quality tapes then treated with specialized primers and an application of a high-performance, specialized 2-part polyurethane paint.

Small DIY courts can be painted in-house in our controlled paint room setting, but larger court layouts are typically painted on site.

The cost of a backyard basketball court varies based on a number of factors. Some variables to consider when estimating the cost are excavation to prepare the site, basketball floor size, outdoor basketball court tile choice, accessories such as basketball hoops, containment netting, and lights.

The cost to build a tennis court in your backyard can vary dramatically depending on the existing terrain and what options you would like for your tennis court surface and amenities. Roughly speaking, a ground-up build of a new tennis court can cost between $50,000 and $100,000.

It varies based on site preparation, surface choice, and whether you're building from scratch or converting existing space. DIY installations with Matéflex can be completed at a fraction of the cost of traditional construction. Contact us for a custom quote tailored to your specific project.

When plastic is put out into the elements, it will expand and contract with varying temperatures and sun conditions. If this is not accommodated for in the design and installation of the modular tile surface, several issues can arise. The surface can shift over time, buckle in extreme heat, and cause inaccurate game line dimensions, just to name a few. Matéflex accounts for all of this with its unique expansion joint technology.

This technology is what sets our outdoor court flooring surfaces above the competition for all sports. The expansion joints allow the tiles to be flexible and conform better to uneven sub-surfaces, providing more consistent ball bounces than any other outdoor tile on the market.

The expansion joints also allow the court to be fastened to the subsurface around the perimeter of the court. This is done for several practical reasons, the first being to prevent physical or thermal movement of the surface throughout its long service life. When properly fastened, the tiles are designed to expand and contract within their own footprint, eliminating any concerns with thermal expansion. This allows the tiles to be trimmed tightly to any vertical obstruction, giving the court a very clean and finished look. It also ensures that your game line dimensions will be accurate regardless of temperature and sun conditions.

The expansion joint technology is one of many reasons Matéflex flooring surfaces are the perfect balance of performance and durability for your next outdoor sports court project.

Our courts come with a 15-year warranty but the life expectancy is more than 20 years.

First, decide what size court you want and how much space you have available. A good starting point is a 30'x60' court, which gives you room for a full 3-point line on a half basketball court and room for many other popular applications like pickleball, shuffleboard, badminton, and more.

Next, contact Matéflex with your court dimensions. We may have a representative in your area who can help build your court from the ground up, or if you have a local contractor who can get your base installed, Matéflex can provide a fully painted DIY kit. 

Either way, Matéflex can walk you through the process for the most cost-effective solution. We can also provide any basketball goals, lights, containment netting, and other court amenities for your project.

Concrete or asphalt is preferred, but any solid, smooth, and level surface will work. Please note: Our tiles can be put over crushed stone outdoors, but it is not advised for long-term performance and durability.
