Flex Court: Not Just For Basketball And Tennis Any More...
Roller rinks, play areas and patios are just a few of the ways to use a Flex Court Surface.
The same materials used to create the toughest, most consistent and easily cared for athletic surfaces are great for other indoor and outdoor applications around the home,” says Jeff Fraser, Owner of Flex Court Athletics of Madison. “We created playing surfaces for both indoor and outdoor use with great results. The great thing with this product is that it is so durable. This durability creates the opportunity to use it around the home in a very productive way.
Patios / Swimming Pool Decks
Flex Court protects like an umbrella over concrete, protecting it from the elements and extends the life of the concrete. You can select fromseventeen colors and can configure the pattern in any way you choose. Flex Court also has a UV protection so the sun will not break it down and is made of breathable materials so it resists mold and mildew.
Most beneficial in many people’s eyes is the fact that in direct sunlight, the surface temperature is between 10 to 20 degrees less than traditional paving (or roofing materials used on a second floor patio area).
Garages
In addition to all of the performance issues already mentioned, Flex Court can be used effectively in garages, protecting the floor and allowing you to style your floor to match your home and décor.
The tiles can support 210lbs/sq inch so cars, trucks and other heavy fixtures will not damage them. They are also oil and grease resistant and can be cleaned very easily. And, because it’s breathable, it can be hosed off to clean out accumulated winter mess, dust and dirt. What could be better than hosing out your garage to quickly clean it regularly?

Shingles are heavy. Flex Court tiles are lighter and there is less stress on your home. Lighter weight, heat reflective, UV and element resistant…they are perfect for patios on the second floor of your home, according to Fraser. “This type of product is great for athletic courts, but because it’s so tough, it can be used anywhere the floor is exposed to heavy use,” Fraser adds.
