One of the most frequent questions we are asked is “should I use a garage flooring product or a containment mat?” Many people confuse garage floors with containment mats but in reality they are two different products.
A containment mat, by definition is a lightweight mat that is placed on the garage floor to contain liquid and debris. A containment mat can not be used as garage flooring but can be used on top of garage flooring.
Garage Flooring, can be used (in some cases) to contain liquid or debris, but the key difference is that garage flooring is designed to withstand the every day use of being the main covering for your garage floor. Many garage floor products, such as the BLT ribbed pattern garage mat can be used to contain liquid and debris.
Choosing between the two is a simply question of how you intend to use the product. If you are simply looking for a mat to place under your vehicle to contain water, oil, snow and debris then a containment mat will work just fine. If however you are looking for a decorative garage floor covering that can protect your floor from the elements while also improving the aesthetics of your garage than a garage flooring product will be a better choice.

Gentlemen,
I am the owner of Cookeville SportsPlex in Cookeville, Tennessee. I installed 4 full size basketball courts using the Sport-Court flooring in 1999.
I had been trying to sell my building the past few years and now have done so. I will be taking the floors, goals, etc. up as I have now sold my building to a company that will be using it for a distribution facility. I will be taking all down in a few weeks. Therefore, I do have storage space in another large building I own that I am storing these. If you have someone that wants these, I will make you a good deal or will take offers. My original intention was to put them on E Bay, but I have two church facilities interested in at least two of these courts. But I will sell on a first come, first serve basis.
I have the following: (for each court)
BPI goals, retractable, with breakaway rim, clear glass, adjustable heights
Volleyball post and nets for each floor with painted boundaries
Bleachers, rollaway type with 5 rows (3 with 24’ length , and 1 at 16 feet length)
Vinyl divider curtains on rollers.
I will sell all four courts, or separate. Price will include taking down and loading on truck. So if you have any one that cannot afford a new Sport Court floor and gym, and maybe looking for a good used gym floor and equipment, please keep this in mind and get in touch with me.
