Standard & Premium Tiles

Before installing your half-court basketball in Melbourne, Cornerstone Courts has the following steps for your information:

GETTING IN TOUCH. Call, email, or enquire about how Cornerstone Courts can help you install a court on your premises. We will entertain all enquiries ranging from DIY tile installation to fully customised court or court-and-hoop packages!

CONSULTATION. We will have a thorough discussion of your specifications for your court (custom court and in ground hoop, half court package, or full court package), from colours to dimensions, etc.

DESIGN. Our expert designers will draft a design of the court you have envisioned, based on your specs. Once the design is done, we will show it to you for your approval.

APPROVAL. Revisions may be made to the design before final approval. Once approved, we will need a 50% deposit for supply and install packages to begin production of your court.

PRODUCTION. Once paid, the production starts. There can be no changes at this time. Payment is non-refundable as every court is 100% customised. 7 days before the installation, we will require a further 40% payment; and the final 10% upon the completion of the installation. It takes around 4-5 weeks from sign-off to delivery, depending on shipping/freight times.

DELIVERY AND INSTALLATION. Once the court’s finished, we will pick it up from our Port Melbourne warehouse and schedule the installation.

Depending on the size of the court you have chosen, it will take our installers between a few hours and a day to install the court completely. If we are supplying and/or installing a hoop, this will also be done at the same time. Once installation is completed, you can now all play ball!

FAQ's

1.  Do you Install the court tiles?

Yes we sure do, a flat $15/m2 for install for smaller courts, pricing is cheaper for larger courts, refer to our pricing section

2.  Do you Install the Hoops?

Of course, refer to our Install and pricing section for the in ground hoops.  If you are purchasing a portable hoop in addition to a court we can also assemble this for you, simply ask us for a price.

3.   What type of surface do I need?

Preferable a concrete slab/base is the best, however asphalt will also suffice.   If you have an old tennis court that is in good nick that could also work.  These systems are not suitable to put on grass, crushed rock or anything else.

4.  Does Cornerstone Courts provide a slab?

Yes of course we can arrange this, being a property group this is easy!  Would would need to arrange a site visit as there are a number of factors at play.  Typically a 100mm slab with SL72 mesh would be suffice

5.  What is the warranty on the court tiles & Hoops?

  • 8 years for the tiles
  • 12 months for hoops
  • 12 months for logos and lines (discretion can be used an easily touched up)
  • 6 years in ground hoop installation

6.  What happens if I break or damage a tile?

Every order we fulfil always comes with a few spare tiles for this very need!  If there is more damaged or required we are also receiving orders from our supplier so replacements are no issues

7.  Can I view the products?

We have a court & hoop set up in our Port Melbourne warehouse you can demo the surface (bookings required) and we can also arrange sample tiles to view

8.    Is there any maintenance required?

No, all you need to do is sweep or hose any dirt, leaves and debris away and the unique drainage system will take care of the water.  The lines and markings will fade over time and may need repainting.

9.  Can you provide netting and landscaping?

Yes, we can provide a total packaged solution for you

10.  What tools do I need if I am installing my own tiles?

You can get away without any tools (using your foot to lock the tiles in works well!) however we do recommend using a rubber mallet.  You can pick one up at bunnings for $5 if you don’t have one

We do recommend pinning (anchoring) the court down with some Ramset Shure drive anchors (Nailed into the concrete) if your tiles are installed on a smooth surface as it will move around a little with play.  As the tiles are essentially plastic they will also expand on contract with the weather, this is normal.

11.  The perimeter gaps between my court and my edge of slab or building keep changing, is this normal?

Yes, as the tiles are essentially plastic they expand and contract (heat & cool) with the weather and thus you will notice some differences.  Unless the slab has been prepared for the exact court size we also leave a slight buffer around the perimeter.

12.  My court moves when being used?

This is quite normal as it is not fixed to the slab at all.  If this is annoying or you want to lock it down we would recommend using some Ramset Shure Drive anchors to fasten the tiles to the slab.  We would only recommend doing this on one edge (the baseline edge)

13.  If I buy a 2nd court for my friend or family can we get it cheaper?

Unfortunately not, as we have a price beat and our prices are low our price is our price.  We work of small margins and keep prices low so all families can afford a court!

Court Installation Info & Pricing

The court tiles are designed to be easy to install by one person

The system includes a plurality of interconnected floor sections. Each floor section includes a wear layer, an upper subfloor panel, a lower subfloor panel and a plurality of parallel spacers sandwiched between the upper and lower subfloor panels. The parallel spacers extend into the recesses of adjacently located floor sections, alongside the corresponding spacers of those floor sections, along the longitudinal sides. At the transverse sides, each section has a spacer that extends into an adjacently located section in the same row and also receives a spacer from an adjacently located section in the same row. The sections have hardware connections that are concealed from view, and connecting each subsequent section will be quite easy

Our install pricing is a standard $15/m2 for metro Melbourne (up to 30 mins travel time based on peak travel times) for all courts up to approx. 165m2 (the 3 on 3 court), then a reduced price for half and full courts

Follow the below tips for your DIY Install;

  • Use your approved mock up diagram as the basis for your install (tiles are not numbered or ordered at all)
  • Start by removing all the tiles from the packaging and assorting or laying the tiles out flat into colours, line markings etc (kind of like doing a jigsaw puzzle)
  • Remember to leave at least 50mm gap from your edges so that the border tiles can be installed last
  • Start with the outer (end) pieces of the court (just like a jigsaw) and then work your way in once the perimeter is done
  • Simply clip the tiles in together (interlocking system and can only go one way) and tap with a mallet to complete the interlocking
  • If you need to take a tile/s up simply bend them in a convex way and they will unclip easily
  • It’s important to get the perimeter right first as once the floor is all locked together it can be tough to move
  • Tiles simply clip together, we recommend using a rubber mallet to clip them in
  • Ones all tiles have been laid (before the border/edge tiles) you can choose whether to anchor the floor to the slab to prevent movement or leave it as floating.  Generally you only need to use anchors if the slab or surface is smooth.  If you have a broom finished slab or even painted slab this isn’t necessary.  Simply hammer in some Ramset Shure Drive Anchors along the baseline edge (do not do on multiple edges! the the holes in the interlocking tile ends
  • Install edge/border tiles last to complete

In Ground Hoop Installation Info & Pricing

We first preface this by saying unless you are a capable DIYer or have someone that is, or a tradie we don’t recommend doing this yourself.  Incorrect installation of Basketball Hoops has taken many children’s lives and it’s not something a “She’ll be right attitude’ can be applied to!  At some point in time the kids will lower the hoop and start dunk contests with their friends so the correct installation is vital!

If you are going to do this yourself please see below our minimum recommendations;

If you would like the professionals (us) to install it with a 6 year warranty on the install (you have made a good decision!) then this will set you back around $2300.00.  This includes preparing/digging the footing, leaving to cure and then assembling and installing your hoop.  This is based on metro Melbourne (standard 30 mins travel time) and level easy site access (wheel barrow access to hoop location)  For more complex installs these can be priced on application
