Sports Flooring Costs
Various factors can impact performance and overall cost when choosing rubber flooring for sporting facilities such as baseball, softball, combat sports, lacrosse, football, soccer, hockey, and ice skating. The type of resilient sports flooring you select will impact the space’s safety and long-term maintenance expenses.
In this guide, we’ll explore the costs and considerations associated with sports flooring, share product recommendations, and provide valuable insights to help you make informed decisions for your sports facility.
Baseball and Softball Flooring Costs
If you seek cost-effective dugout rubber flooring or a rubber floor for a softball facility, consider our VersaTREAD rubber rolls, DuraRUBBER® rubber sheets, or VersaRUBBER® sport and fitness mats. All are built to handle high-traffic dugouts and training facilities of any size. Manufactured for optimal safety and comfort, rubber baseball rolls, rubber softball sheets, and rubber dugout mats all feature anti-shock, anti-fatigue, and cushioning characteristics to keep athletes protected from unnecessary strain.
If an artificial turf playing field is what you’re after, GatorFIT® artificial athletic turf (designed for indoor use) offers a much more comfortable option for athletes over traditional artificial turf. Thanks to its impact-absorbing ActionBACK 5mm foam backing, GatorFIT® fake sport grass provides a safe base for athletes whether practicing or playing, helping reduce the risk of injury due to impact. Available in a variety of colors to suit any team aesthetic, GatorFIT® synthetic sports turf is completely customizable, from game lines to hash marks to logos. If you can dream it, we can do it!

Combat Sports Flooring Costs
The two key components of a high-performance combat sports floor are durability and safety- nothing less will do. Although low-quality flooring might be cheap at the start, the typical need for constant maintenance and repair increases overall costs in the long run. As Benjamin Franklin famously said, “The bitterness of low quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.” At Perfect Surfaces, we focus on providing high-value, high-quality combat sports flooring products so that your investment will serve you well into the future. Our RivalMATS vinyl rolls are great in commercial facilities and residential applications as wrestling mats, boxing mats, mixed martial arts (MMA) mats, or Taekwondo mats. RivalMATS vinyl mats are lightweight, durable, and firmly stay in place when taped down.
RivalMATS vinyl wrestling mats are also a cost-effective flooring option for MMA, BJJ and jiu-jitsu facilities. These heavy-duty mats are easy to install and store and versatile enough for commercial and residential martial arts applications. RivalMATS vinyl rollout mats can be easily fastened together with a hook and loop system to create larger mats of any size for practicing BJJ, jiu-jitsu, and other martial arts. The hook and loop connection system is built right into the product, limiting the need for additional tape on the seams.
Athletic Artificial Turf Cost
Various factors can impact the overall cost of artificial athletic turf in training facilities and sports fields, including the base preparation requirements, whether professional installation is required, any maintenance requirements- and the cost of the synthetic athletic grass itself.
Even with the upfront investment, GatorFIT® athletic turf offers great value over natural grass. Synthetic grass is safer, offers better drainage, requires less maintenance, and is cleaner! Our ActionBACK 5mm foam backing reduces the impact on joints; perforations in the turf backing allow for better drainage than the dirt beneath natural grass; artificial turf is always in peak condition since it does not need to be watered, fertilized, or mowed; and artificial grass blades don’t stain clothing and secondary thatch and infill eliminate the messy dirt. Additionally, GatorFIT® athletic turf is available in multiple colors and is fully customizable with hash marks, game lines, and logos- eliminating the need to repaint natural grass before each game!
Hockey and Skating Rubber Flooring Cost
Many factors can influence the overall cost of rubber hockey and ice skating flooring in arenas, including the required subfloor preparation, whether professional installation is utilized, any necessary maintenance, and, of course, the cost of the material.
Despite the initial investment, both VersaRUBBER® ICE mats and VersaTREAD hockey & arena rubber flooring offer great value: they are long-lasting, durable, and hard-wearing rubber flooring options that resist skate incision, are easy to clean, and are built to withstand the cold and moisture common in ice rinks without the risk of degradation.
