I am shocked at the prices that you guys are quoting.
Matt is just talking about a cement court. I am still sticking with my original guess somewhat.
I will increase it up to $2500, but I am not going any higher than that for a cement basketball court
And you would be wrong....again.
Obviously there are al ot of unknowns here with regards to location, grading requirements, etc. but if you want to hire the entire thing out, you're going to pay anywhere from $3-5 a square foot for even the most basic wire mesh reinforced, 4" thick, broom finished slab. (That price would cover minimal grading, form, pour and finish...no demo or hauling)
at 1,400 S.F. he's looking at 4 dimes at an absolute minimum. And that doesn't include the hoop or striping.
If you wanted to do all of the prep yourself....grading, base, forming, etc. the material alone is gonna run from $85-100 a square yard....at 28' x 50' x 4" that's about 19 yards including a 10% overage. Figure another $1 a foot for a competent finisher and add for a pump, forming lumber, mesh or rebar, hoop, paint etc.
$4,000 at an absolute bare minimum (doing much of the work yourself)
$5,000 minimum hiring it all out assuming the land is relatively 'concrete ready' (mostly flat, clean dirt, and easily accessible)
$6,000+ depending on how much landscape demo/grading/hauling needed beforehand.
Stick to selling Elvis chips, killing Mexicans and abandoning pets dude.
