COURTSPORTS Hardwood sports flooring industry since 1997
Real courts. Real products. Real results. No BS. DM for collabs

While many gym floor contractors are buying stock artwork and sending files out to third parties, we’re designing courts from the ground up.

At COURTSPORTS, court design isn’t an add-on service—it’s one of our specialties.

We create custom court layouts, realistic digital renderings, and can show you exactly what your floor will look like from virtually any seat in your arena before a single line is painted. Want to see the view from center court? The upper bleachers? The scorer’s table? We can do that.

Behind the scenes, our large-format printers, plotters, and cutting equipment are running constantly—producing temporary decals, custom stencils, logos, lettering, and artwork for projects across the country. Every logo, every line, every detail is engineered for precision.

In fact, we don’t just design courts for our own projects. We provide design services, artwork, and stencil packages to other gym floor contractors as well.

Anybody can sand a floor.

Designing a court that turns heads, represents a school or organization with pride, and looks incredible under arena lighting takes a different level of expertise.

When it comes to custom court design, digital renderings, stencil production, and paintwork, we’re not following the industry—we’re helping define it.

🔥🏀 EVERGREEN STATE COLLEGE IS ABOUT TO GET ABSOLUTELY GLOSS’D TO THE MAX! 🏀🔥

Our crew is on site preparing this maple athletic floor for its annual maintenance coats. No shortcuts. No “good enough.” Just meticulous preparation and elite-level craftsmanship designed to keep this floor performing and looking its best year after year.

We’re finishing this court with an oil-modified urethane—the undisputed king of gym floor finishes. Nothing else delivers the same combination of crystal-clear appearance, deep reflection, incredible durability, and championship-level gloss.

While others chase trends, we’re sticking with what has proven itself on some of the most demanding athletic floors in the country. When players step onto this court, we want them looking down and seeing a finish so smooth and reflective it practically looks wet.

The secret isn’t just the finish—it’s the preparation. A great coating is only as good as the crew applying it. That’s why we obsess over every detail before the first drop ever hits the floor.

By the time we’re done, this floor won’t just shine…

It will GLOW.
It will POP.
It will be GLOSS’D TO THE MAX.

🎥 Check out the video and let us know:

Are you Team Oil-Based Gloss or Team Waterborne?

🏀 20,000 sq. ft. gym floor recoat completed at Pacific University in Forest Grove, Oregon.

💧 Wet screening. Why????

A lot of contractors believe you can't use a heavy-duty cleaning solution while screening a gym floor. Our experience has been the opposite. When done correctly—with immediate water extraction using an industrial squeegee vacuum—wet screening has become our preferred recoat method.

Why?

✅ Removes dirt and grime that dry screening can leave behind
✅ Helps break down oils, silicones, and cleaner residues that can cause coating issues
✅ Virtually dust-free process
✅ Creates a cleaner surface prior to coating

After screening, we also auto-scrub the floor for additional cleaning before applying two coats of OMU.

The question is:

👉 If you've done gym floor recoats, are you wet screening or dry screening—and why?

We've found that the amount of ground-in dirt removed during wet screening can be eye-opening, but we know there are strong opinions on both sides.

Let's hear it. What's your preferred recoat process, and what results have you seen?

14,000 sq. ft. of hardwood looking fresh again at WSU’s Cub Ballroom!

We drum sanded this floor a few years ago and returned today for maintenance coats. Using a satin-finish system from Advantage Coatings that dried in just 2.5 hours, allowing us to get both coats down the same day. No abrasion needed between coats within 48 hours, which saves a ton of time.

And that satin sheen? 🔥

FLOOR #16.
Another gym floor damaged by the Bona “craters.”

This time — University of Idaho’s Upper Gym.

We are now at SIXTEEN floors showing the same defect patterns after using defective batches of Bona Sport Poly. These aren’t application mistakes. These aren’t isolated incidents. These are widespread finish failures that continue showing up on floors all over the Northwest and across the country.

As contractors, this is devastating because the floor reflects OUR company name — not the manufacturer’s. Customers don’t see a “bad batch.” They see OUR work.

We’ve spent countless hours trying to repair, hide, screen, recoat, and in some cases completely resand these floors just to protect long-term relationships with our customers.

What’s most frustrating is the lack of accountability, support, and transparency from Bona throughout this entire situation.

Watch the video closely. These craters are everywhere throughout the finish film.

How many other contractors out there are still dealing with this?

Bushnell University - Gloss’d to the MAX!

Floor #15 with the BONA craters.

This one is University of Wyoming.

When these failures first started, we thought maybe it was contamination from cleaners, mop treatments, events, dirt, carts, etc.

But our process NEVER changed.

Wet screen.
Deep clean.
Auto-scrub.
Microfiber tack.
Coat.

Same process for years. Zero issues.

Now after 15 failed floors — including collegiate and NBA-level courts — it’s clear this was a Bona product failure.

Bona denied it until the new Portland Trail Blazers floor failed. Then Bona admitted product failure and paid to repair that court.

But they have not paid us for the labor, travel, repairs, lost time, and damage their product caused our company.

Instead, their attorneys threatened us over our posts.

They even offered a settlement — but only if we deleted our posts and stayed silent.

That’s not happening.

These posts have connected us with contractors across the country experiencing the SAME failures.
