Basketball floors: Upgrade your court. Elevate the game

Yes, Junckers works with a nationwide network of certified installers and dealer partners. We can recommend a trusted local installer experienced in sports flooring, ensuring proper installation and long-term performance.

Installing a basketball floor involves careful planning, certified materials, and professional expertise to ensure performance, safety, and longevity. Best practices include working with certified sports floor installers to ensure compliance, avoid costly errors, and meet technical specifications.

With the right sports floor contractor, you can customize your basketball court with custom markings, center logos, sponsor branding, and wood finishes in beech, ash, or maple—available in our Champion, Premium, and Club gradings.

The best flooring for a basketball court depends on your facility’s needs, but solid hardwood sports floors remain the gold standard worldwide. Hardwood—especially maple, beech, and ash—delivers superior ball bounce, natural shock absorption, and long-term durability. Junckers manufactures all sports floors from 22 mm solid hardwood, available in multiple gradings (Champion, Premium, Club) and finishes (lacquered, oiled, or untreated) to match both performance and aesthetic requirements.

The question “how much does a basketball gym floor cost” can’t be answered with a single figure. The final price depends on several key factors, each of which shapes the overall budget and performance of your court. Read about the key factors behind pricing here.

The best way to clean and maintain a basketball floor is to use a dedicated basketball floor cleaner designed to protect the finish, ensure safety, and extend the floor’s lifespan. Junckers recommends daily sweeping or dust-mopping, routine damp mopping with a pH-neutral cleaner, and immediate spot-cleaning of spills and sweat. Periodic deep cleaning and reapplication of protective finishes keep hardwood and synthetic surfaces in peak condition.
