2024 Indoor Basketball Court Cost

Basketball enthusiasts dream of building their own court in their home and with a little work, it can become a reality. Indoor basketball court cost around rs. 4,06,700 on average and you can build them in a garage, barn or an addition to your home. Depending on the size, materials and other factors, your costs can range from rs.1,57,700 to rs.11,95,200 Here we will explain a little about the cost of an indoor basketball court and the process of building it.

Indoor Basketball Court Costs Per Square Foot

On average, an indoor basketball court will cost Rs. 290.5 to Rs.1580 per square foot, depending on your material choices and labor costs. This is a large range, but the type of materials you choose and any existing structure you have makes a big difference.

Flooring and labor are your two biggest investments. Maple hardwood costs Rs.290.53.50 to Rs.500 per square foot and Rs.500 to Rs.664 per square foot for installation. This is the gold standard for basketball court floors, so for many serious players, it’s worth the price.

Laminate flooring costs Rs. 60 to Rs.126 per square foot and Rs90 to Rs150 per square foot for labor.

You can also skip the additional flooring altogether and just play on a cement slab. In this case, you’ll probably need an epoxy floor coating to protect the concrete. Materials and labor cost about Rs.500 per square foot.

Laminate flooring can give the appearance of a standard floor, but at a much lower cost of between Rs.60 and Rs.170 per square foot, plus RS.90 to Rs.200 per square foot for the labor. This flooring won’t be nearly as durable as maple hardwood, though.

Painting Coat Markings

If you’re going through the process of installing an indoor basketball court, you’ll at least want to know if you’ll actually be making those three-pointers. Expect to pay around Rs.29,000 to have a professional paint court markings on your flooring for a full-size court. You can expect to pay around RS.16,600 for a half court or 3-on-3 court, and somewhere in between these numbers for other sizes.

Basketball Hoops

You’ll also need to budget for one or two hoops to complete your court. For most indoor courts, you’ll want mounted hoops, which will cost between Rs.45,650 and Rs.2,49,000 each, not including installation. Fully installed, you’ll need to spend between Rs.83,000 and Rs.4,15,000 for each.

You can also opt for wall-mounted hoops, which will cost between Rs.33,200 and Rs.66,400 each. With installation, they will range from Rs.45,650 to Rs.83,000 each.

If you are installing something other than a half court or 3-on-3 court, remember that you will need to double these prices to hire a local basketball hoop installer.

Scoreboard

If you want to take your indoor game room idea to the next level and make the court look official, you should consider installing a scoreboard. You can purchase a rolling scoreboard for between Rs.83,000 and Rs.2,49,000 or you can step up your game a little more and purchase a wall-mounted, hardwired scoreboard with installation for between Rs.83,000 and Rs.4,15,000.

Bench

An indoor court can look incomplete without a bench to rest between quarters. Expect to pay between Rs.8300 and Rs.41,500 per bench to seat two to three people, or closer to Rs.83,000 per bench if you want to seat the whole team.

Lighting

One of the attractions of playing indoor basketball is that you can play at any time of day, and this will require you to add light fixtures to your court space. Expect to pay between Rs.16,600 and Rs.83,000 per light fixture.

A good estimate of the number of lights you will need is about 18 lights for a full professional court or about 10 lights for a half court. Thus, your total lighting costs will range between Rs.2,98,800 to Rs.14,94,000 for a full court or Rs.16,600 to Rs.8,30,000 for a half court.

Structural costs

The approach to your indoor court can have a huge impact on the cost. For example, an attached addition to house the court will cost more than a separate addition. If you already have the space built out, installing a basketball court will be in line with the pricing mentioned above. If you need to build a new space for the court, you will likely be looking at between Rs.12,45,000 to Rs.66,40,000 in addition to the total court costs mentioned above.

Depending on your structure and the climate in your area, you may want to add ventilation and ductwork for the HVAC system, which costs around Rs.91,300 on average.

Labor

Building an indoor basketball court is a very labor-intensive and time-consuming job, so you can expect about 55% of your total cost to be spent on labor. Labor costs can vary significantly depending on your location, the materials you use, and the experience of the contractor you hire. Labor charges will include the following, among other things:

  • Laying the floor
  • Painting any necessary floor lines
  • Applying protective sealant to the floor
  • Installing or mounting the hoops
  • Installing and wiring the scoreboard
  • Mounting the benches, if applicable
  • Installing new light fixtures

How to install an indoor basketball court: do it yourself or hire an expert

Labor costs are higher for this type of project, but that’s because the job requires time, specialized knowledge, and a variety of flooring and structural professionals. With that in mind, it’s best to leave this installation to the pros.

It’s possible to do some of the work yourself, like installing the hoops and benches in some cases, but in general, it’s best to leave everything to a professional. The equipment you’ll need to install is bulky and heavy, and you can easily damage it and end up paying twice as much for it if you make a mistake.
