Concrete Doesn't

Forgive Mistakes.

Built Below the Surface.

What separates a hoop that lasts decades from one that leans within a year happens before the pole ever goes in the ground — correct excavation depth, a properly poured and cured concrete footing, and utility markings already completed before any digging starts. Then it's precision: pole alignment, backboard mounting, and rim leveling calibrated for real, regulation play. Getting any one of those steps wrong shows up later as a wobble, a lean, or a hoop that was never quite square. That precision, start to finish, is the whole job.

Common Questions. →

Do I need to call 811 before installation?
Yes. The customer is responsible for contacting 811 and having underground utilities marked before our crew arrives. Once the utility markings are complete, we can begin the excavation and installation work.
How deep do you dig for the pole?
We follow manufacturer specifications, typically 36–48 inches deep depending on the system. Hole width and concrete volume are calculated for maximum stability.
How long before we can use the hoop?
We recommend waiting 24–48 hours for the concrete to fully cure before heavy use. Light shooting can typically begin sooner, but dunking or hanging on the rim should wait for full cure.
What about drainage around the pole?
We grade around the installation to prevent water from pooling — that protects both the concrete foundation and the surrounding landscape.
Can you remove or replace an existing system?
Yes — we remove old basketball systems and can install the new one in the same spot or a different location, whatever works best for your yard.
