What Types of Surfaces Can You Install Sport Court Floor Tiles On?
Sport court floor tiles are highly versatile and can be installed over many different surfaces. Whether you’re looking to install these tiles indoors or outdoors, the tiles are suitable for many different applications.Over Wood
Indoor sport court floor tiles can be installed over flat, firm surfaces, which means you can install them over a wood subfloor. Wood is a durable surface, but it’s also highly firm underfoot, so it’s not always ideal for court sports.
Installing court tiles on top of the wood can add a bit of cushion and shock absorption for athletes. Sport court tiles also offer the advantage of helping to absorb some of the sound that can echo off wood floors, making the environment more enjoyable.
Over Rubber
Similarly, you can install sport court floor tiles over rubber subfloors. Rubber underlayments provide extra cushion and shock absorption for your court, creating a safer and more comfortable surface for athletes. Rubber underlayments are supremely durable, and they help buffer sound and cold for a more enjoyable space.
Rubber is available in roll and tile forms, so you can easily install a rubber underlayment in both smaller and larger spaces.
Over Concrete and Asphalt
Multiple styles of these tiles can go directly over the top of a hard surface, such as concrete. When adding these tiles to a space such as a basement, pole shed, garage, or sports complex, they yield a surface for successful athletic training for nearly any type of sport.
These surfaces are far safer for the athletes than the harsh concrete, protecting the lower body joints of the athlete.
In an indoor gymnasium, basketball is a popular sport to play. Consider the VersaCourt Pro Wood Grain Court Tile to create a safe space that has the firmness needed for the running, jumping, starting, and stopping that’s required in basketball. It works over concrete, hard surfaces, or a rubber underlayment.
Over the VersaCourt Outdoor Court Foundation Panel
If you want to install sports tiles outdoors but don’t have a hard, flat surface available, the VersaCourt Outdoor Court Foundation Panel may be the right underlayment choice. You can install these tiles over gravel to create a firm surface to serve as the base for your sports tiles. There’s no need to install a concrete or asphalt pad, so you can save money and time on the installation.
These foundation panels offer more shock absorption than concrete, plus they’re permeable to allow for drainage. They interlock together for an easy, DIY-friendly installation, and you can place your sports tiles directly on top.
