A basketball court refurbishment is a capital improvement project to pour new life into an existing court. These projects involve a structural component to repair damages to the asphalt, prime the court, and upgrade equipment, and an artistic component leaving behind a painted mural and powerful art expression. Both components typically require a level of specialized expertise and equipment to be done correctly.

Unfortunately there is no “one-size-fits-all” approach to court refurbishment and art murals. Each court is unique to it’s own situation: its size, location, state of equipment and state of its surface all vary considerably.

Costs also depend on resources available, these projects involve manual labor that frequently includes working with specialized equipment or some level of construction know-how, the art murals necessitate skilled painters. An artist that can paint a mural, or a church, school or community center that can coordinate volunteers (particularly those with needed skills) may be able to find considerable saving in labor costs.

As a rule of thumb, consider that a single court can cost between $45,000 and $75,000 for refurbishment and muraling.

It all starts with an idea! Fill out the form above and one of our team members will get in touch with you.

Hoopbus, for now, is incredibly selective at applying direct project funding towards requested court refurbishment projects.

If no funding is available, our purpose-driven team is happy to advise how an individual or organization can fundraise, plan, and even execute a court refurbishment with or without our team. Everybody wins the more courts are invested in. For more resources, we highly recommend checking out the open source manuals for court refurbishment available on Project Backboard’s website.

Please fill out our volunteer form under the get involved section! The more you can share about your experience (or lack thereof) the better we can offer opportunities.
