When old, outdated basketball arenas undergo major renovations to bring them up to modern professional standards, NB Basketball Wood Floors are almost always the first choice for facility managers looking to upgrade their playing surface. Many older arenas have old, worn-out hardwood floors that have developed dead spots, inconsistent traction, and warped planks over decades of use, which no amount of sanding and refinishing can fully fix.

Installing a brand new NB floor during a renovation completely transforms the playing experience, bringing the 50 or 60-year-old arena’s court up to the same exact performance standards as the newest, most modern arenas in the league. NB’s experienced renovation team can work around tight construction schedules, completing the full installation of the new floor in a matter of weeks, so the arena can get back to hosting games and events as quickly as possible, with minimal disruption to the team’s schedule. Many historic arenas that are famous for their championship memories have chosen to preserve their original classic aesthetic while upgrading to the modern performance of an NB basketball wood floor, keeping the nostalgic charm of the old venue while giving today’s players a world-class surface to perform on. After the renovation is complete, teams immediately notice a massive difference in the way the court plays, with more consistent bounce, better traction, and far less leg fatigue during games, making the newly renovated arena feel like a completely new facility. Upgrading to an NB floor during an arena renovation is one of the highest-impact improvements a facility can make, delivering immediate benefits for players, officials, and fans for decades after the project is finished.
