Basketball Hoop Installation Service

Get the kids out of the house

Create memories that'll continue to be made for a lifetime with your new basketball hoop!

I am the only installer in the country offering a LIFETIME Labor Warranty on premium* in‑ground basketball hoop installations!

* Premium
A hoop with a manufacturers Lifetime Warranty.

The work required is no joke — digging a 4 foot deep‑hole, setting anchor bolts perfectly in 1,200 lbs–2,300 lbs of wet concrete, lifting a 200 lb glass backboard, micro‑leveling the whole system left‑to‑right & front‑to‑back and then calibrating it to 10 feet high.

What's the Installation Process?

Your in‑ground basketball system is a 2‑visit process*.

* Single‑Visit Options
If you only need the digging & concrete done, or only the assembly & calibration, there is now an option for this on my Pricing Request form to get an online quote.

Before I can start digging, underground utilities must be checked. There is no additional time or effort required on your end. I manage this entire process for you. Once you hire me, I will contact 811® and the clock will start on the they require to perform the check.

During my 1st visit, I will do a walk‑through with you and we'll determine where you want your hoop placed. We will take into account any utility lines that are marked, the size of your driveway or pad, and any cut marks in the concrete for aesthetic purposes. Once determined, I will use a custom template and start digging the hole.

The hole will then be filled with concrete. The rebar and anchor system will be embedded before the concrete dries too much. This is the most critical part of the installation process to get right, as it's the foundation for everything to come later.

The concrete then needs to dry. The drying times I require are in warm weather and up to in cold weather. After which I'll return for the 2nd visit to erect your system.

Under normal circumstances, concrete that's under something like a shed can be used within . Basketball systems are different...they are putting unusual stresses on the concrete with the heavy backboard hanging out from the pole 3' ‑ 5'. Visualize holding a bucket of water with your arm out horizontal. That's a lot of weight!

This whole process may sound like a lot, and I understand that. As you'll see from my reviews, it is made to be as seamless as possible. Once you hire me, there is very little to do on your part.

If you don't have a hoop picked out yet.

If you haven't purchased your hoop yet, contact me for a recommendation on size/brand for your needs. The biggest sized hoops do not fit all applications.

There is a select group of companies that offer Lifetime Manufacturers Warranties that include dunking and hanging, and these are not sold in retail stores. Using one of these hoops combined with my Lifetime Labor Warranty, it will be the last hoop you'll ever buy. Your great‑grandkids will be dunking and hanging on it someday!

There are 4 types of basketball systems

Some tips regarding backboard size to get you started:

54"
Tight Area, 1 Car wide
60"
Normal Driveway, 2 Cars wide
72"
Large Driveway, 3 Cars wide

Client Reviews

David Stultz, Murphysboro, IL Awesome experience from start to finish! Plenty of contact and updates through the process. Basketball goal looks great and kids love it! I highly recommend Precise Assemblies! Original review from David on
John Beyer, Springfield, IL My usual approach is, if you want it done correctly, do it yourself. The exception to this rule is if Jeremy from Precise Assemblies is working on your project. We needed help installing a basketball hoop anchor. Half of a week after contacting him, it was done, and correctly so.
Some other good signs: His shirt was tucked in, his work area looked professional, and he offered to tarp the install area in case of rain. Feeling like the person you hired for your project cares about how it turns out is a big plus!
Original review from John on
Phillip G., Harville, MO I had purchased a goal that I didn’t have the equipment or time to install myself. I did a lot of research to find the best company or person for the install. It turned out better then I thought it could have. Also, he painted the lane, free throw, and 3 point line. Worth every penny! Professional and great communication.
Shannon Kutz, Cape Girardeau, MO Basketball goal assembly and installation was great! I would highly recommend to anyone! Very responsible and good at what he does! Original review & photo from Shannon on

Keri Reid, Centralia, IL Jeremy installed an in ground basketball goal from Dick’s. The entire process was so easy from start to finish. He took care of everything.

Kyle Sanborn, Creve Coeur (St Louis), MO Precise Assemblies is amazing. I just moved and have a lot of services helping me install and repair and Precise Assemblies is the best by far. Hands down amazing. Jeremy is precise, prompt, polite, clean and super helpful. He installed a professional grade basketball hoop and even helped fix some other things that other companies left hanging. I give the highest recommendation. Original review from Kyle on
Brent Pontious, Columbia, IL I contracted with Precise Assemblies to install an in‑ground basketball hoop (MegaSlam 60) and had a fantastic experience. Overall Jeremy was extremely professional (easy to work with, very punctual, very organized) and did a great job installing the hoop. I would say his attention to the fine details are one things that would set him apart from most contractors that I've worked with over the years (I've worked with many) and I could tell he has a true passion for what he's doing. Jeremy was even willing to come out an install my hoop in early February during a very chilly snowstorm in order to finish the project and not have me wait. Highly recommended. Thanks again Jeremy! Original review & photo from Brent on
John Mayo, Webster Groves (St Louis), MO Jeremy, owner/operator of Precise Assemblies, did an excellent job installing my Pro Dunk basketball goal. He was professional in all of his communication with me throughout the process and was on time during the installation process. He clearly had installed many in‑ground basketball hoops in his career based on his efficient and high quality work. I would recommend him to anyone and will look to hire him in the future for additional projects. Original review from John on
Boyd G., Sikeston, MO Knowledgeable about basketball goals, helped me pick out the right one. And great at installing them too. Very professional. Would recommend to anyone.
Matt Holthaus, Highland, IL Jeremy did an awesome job on our ProDunk basketball goal assembly. He did it all, concrete, pole, backboard, hoop, calibration, etc. all by himself! His skills and inventions for the work was impressive! I highly recommend him. Original review & photo from Matt on
Dustin Koester, O Fallon (St Louis), MO Original rating from Dustin on

Ryan Mumford, St Charles, MO On Monday I filled out the pricing request form on the Precise Assemblies website, and by 3:00 PM Friday Jeremy was wrapped up with the job. His professionalism and responsiveness is unlike any other contractor or handyman I've dealt with. He installed the pictured adjustable basketball goal in just a few hours as well. I highly recommend Precise Assemblies and Jeremy for any of the jobs that he has listed on his site. It could not have gone any smoother. Original review & photo from Ryan on
Kelly Miller, Hickory, KY We had a basketball goal installed and lines painted. Jeremy did an awesome job. Everything looks great! Would highly recommend him! Original review from Kelly on
Angie Cleaver, Murray, KY We have used Jeremy twice. Once for an indoor furniture assembly and a basketball goal installation. His overall performance and professionalism exceeded our expectations. He is very thorough and detail oriented. We would highly recommend him for any installation and would definitely use him again. Original review from Angie on
Jeremy L., Paducah, KY Jeremy did another fantastic job with our portable basketball goal. Came out and got it done in a couple of hours! Always a pleasure working with his company!
Pete H., Edwardsville, IL Jeremy did an excellent job of installing our ProDunk Basketball hoop. He was responsive, conscientious and extremely professional. We could not be happier with his preparation and execution of the installation project. I'd highly recommend him to anyone looking to install a basketball goal at their home. Original review from Pete on
Chad Walton, Webster Groves (St Louis), MO We just moved and the one must‑have from our kids was installing a new basketball goal like we had at our previous home. So this is our 2nd Pro Dunk Hoop & install. The person that installed our previous hoop was very good. Jeremy with Precise Assemblies was beyond good, however. Professional, outstanding quality & attention to detail.
Arrives with all his equipment, loaded in his professional trailer, he even worked his arrival time around other contractors we had at the house that day. After day one (digging and pouring of foundation) he placed cut out tennis balls over the protruding steel bolts on base so no one was hurt before the post is attached the following week. Also thoughtfully arranged all the post/hoop boxes in the garage so they were out of the way for our movers the next day.
On goal post assembly day, Jeremy leveled everything to a T and made sure we were completely familiar with all the working aspects of raising and lowering the goal, even why the safety pin is needed at a certain height.
Again, having a previous install experience that was good ‑ it was easy to see how Jeremy stands out, the very best person I could recommend for basketball hoop installs.
Original review from Chad on
David C., St Louis, MO Jeremy did a great job and great personality and would use him again for sure!
Michelle A., Gillespie, IL Jeremy is nothing short of wonderful. We found him online and he followed through immediately with everything. He did an amazing job and we couldn’t be happier! Original review from Michelle on
Zack Cuddy, Imperial, MO Wanted to give a huge shout out and thanks to Precise Assemblies for installing our driveway basketball hoop!
Jeremy’s work and professionalism was unmatched and we are so happy with the final product!
He was transparent and clear with all pricing and expectations. Check out his website for an instant and free quote on any of your upcoming projects that require complex assembly. He is your guy!
Original review from Zack on
Angela Fitzpatrick, St Louis, MO Jeremy installed our ProDunk basketball hoop. He arrived early and did a great job. With all the heavy pieces and hardware, I thought the installation would require at least three people. But, Jeremy’s ingenious pulley and other mechanical gadgets made it a safe, precise and efficient one‑man job (that my kids loved watching!). Original review from Angela on
Jim McCormack, Chesterfield, MO Jeremy really knows what he’s doing and is organized. Did not have one issue. I’ve had two basketball hoops installed before this one, and now I can tell the two guys that installed those had no idea what they were doing. If you’re going to purchase your product, sometimes the product is only as good as the installer. He is top‑of‑the‑line when it comes to installing basketball hoops, in‑ground or portable. Original review from Jim on
Ken D., Hillsboro, MO Jeremy was absolutely amazing from his communication to most importantly the quality of his work. I’ve never seen anyone take as much pride in his work as he does. He has the proper tools to get any job done you may need and his professionalism is unmatched. Worth every penny and more in my opinion.
Scott Skornia, Creve Coeur (St Louis), MO It was a pleasure working with Jeremy. Despite a global pandemic and dealing with his own family tragedy, he kept me posted on his status, arrived on time, completed the work with care and precision, and was even kind enough to share his secrets on the proprietary systems he has created to help with installation efficiency. Highly recommended for any installation!! Original review from Scott on
Jarrod Brissenden, Highland, IL Jeremy did a great job installing our basketball goal. Extremely professional and knowledgeable. Original review from Jarrod on
Lee Fauntleroy, Greenville, KY Has all the right tools and knowledge to do a professional job and clean up after. Original review from Lee on
Garrett C., Jackson, MO Great work, great communication, kids love it. Highly recommend for basketball goal assembly! Original review from Garrett on
Tim W., St Louis, MO Everything about his set up was awesome. From day one I felt confident that this was going to work out great. Jeremy works hard and really helped decide on the best location. I read his reviews and went with him. Glad I did. Thanks Jeremy Original review from Tim on
Scott Manny, Edwardsville, IL Precise assemblies puts a huge emphasis on attention to detail. When installing my hoop, they ensured that the backboard was parallel with the driveway, the backboard and rim were level, and let me know that the sticker indication hoop height was calibrated to the top of the line on the sticker. The line was about two millimeters in thickness and he went through the trouble to calibrate it to the top of the line folks. Think about that. It should tell you everything you need to know. If they’re more expensive than other installers, it’s because they’re worth it. Original review from Scott on
Wes C., Richmond (Lexington), KY Great transaction value for value! Very seldom you can say thanks for the value I paid for! You will not be disappointed with this company! A professional job.
Arnold M., Florissant (St Louis), MO Jeremy was everything we expected and more. Five stars for his attention to detail, professionalism, knowledge, cleanliness, and all‑out work ethic. I also had him paint my court as well. The lines are perfect and my home court looks amazing. He had all of the proper tools to get the job done in a timely manner. I was very impressed to see him pull up the old cement and cut the big boulder into smaller pieces to haul off. He took my old goal, all of the boxes, and the pallet that it came on. If you need a basketball goal installed, I highly recommend Jeremy for the job. I am very satisfied with the excellent professional job Jeremy has done installing my goal and painting my court. Five‑star service hands down. If you want it done right and looking great, Jeremy is the man for the job. Big Smile.
Ron Elder, Fenton, MO Jeremy at Precise Assemblies did an excellent job installing my Pro‑Dunk basketball hoop. He had a challenging job digging a large hole through very rocky ground and hard clay. He was able to successfully align and calibrate the basketball goal to my existing court markings. He was very meticulous and detail oriented and made sure the job was done right. He spent additional time explaining to me how to adjust and lock the system. He also disposed all the large boxes and wood pallet off my hands, even though that was outside the scope of his work. I highly recommend Jeremy for your install needs! Original review from Ron on
Paul Schimpf, Waterloo, IL Jeremy did a fantastic job! His attention to detail was the best I've seen, but what I appreciated the most was how he interacted with my boys. He took the time to explain the steps in putting up our basketball hoop. I will definitely seek his help again with future installation projects. Original review from Paul on
Mary‑Ann M., Cape Girardeau, MO We couldn’t be more pleased with Precise Assemblies. Jeremy is knowledgable, efficient, and conscientious. He’s done some audio/visual work for us and he just installed a very cool basketball goal that our boys love (if you’re looking to upgrade your b‑ball court, Jeremy is your guy). He shows up on time, explains what he’s going to do, and works nonstop to get the job done. A bonus for me is how neat he is. I swear his work area is cleaner when he leaves than when he arrived. We highly recommend Precise Assemblies and will continue to use the company. Original review from Mary‑Ann on
Patrick Rosa, Danville, KY I am very, very pleased with Precise Assemblies! I asked Precise Assemblies to install a Produnk Diamond model hoop for me. After I read the reviews of the various installers, I decided I wanted to go with him even though that meant paying extra for the travel time, as I was outside his regular service area. It was worth every penny. Jeremy is very professional, very meticulous, prompt, and responsive. His work is flawless. I absolutely recommend Jeremy for any assembly or installation work. He has tremendous experience and he puts great thought into the work he does. He is excellent! Original review & photos from Patrick on
Craig S., Cape Girardeau, MO We are extremely happy with our basketball goal! Jeremy does great work! I would highly recommend him! 5 stars
Bo Yarbrough, Bowling Green, KY Jeremy was very knowledgeable and professional. I would highly recommend him and Precise Assemblies. Original review from Bo on
Peter W., St Louis, MO Jeremy has superb attention to detail and researched our installation very thoroughly. He came back to troubleshoot. He is excellent and we recommend him!
Molly & Derek H., Centralia, IL Jeremy was extremely reliable, professional, and timely in assembling and installing our basketball goal. We will absolutely call him again—without hesitation!
Kurt Lancaster, Cape Girardeau, MO Professional and fast. I plan on using Jeremy for future projects. I highly recommend him! Original review from Kurt on
Brent Pfeiffer, Jackson, MO Jeremy helped me very quickly when I was in a bind and needed assistance with a basketball goal installation. He was extremely professional and easy to talk with. Greatly appreciate his help!!! Original review from Brent on
Paul G., University City (St Louis), MO I found Jeremy to be a perfectionist. No detail was overlooked. I often thought as he was working..."that's good enough", but I realized it would not be for him until it met his high standard. His work was both organized and concise. I enjoyed seeing how he had thought through every phase of the goal installation process. He developed custom/specialized tools for the job and had improved upon others. It was quite fascinating to see his ingenuity. The end result was a perfectly installed in‑ground basketball hoop! Would certainly recommend his services.
Chris R., Cape Girardeau, MO I am not receiving anything for my promotion below and this recommendation is long overdue. Jeremy is very professional and will assemble anything that you need. He did everything that he promised, responded promptly, was very professional, organized, kept his work site very clean, and was very detail oriented. He installed our basketball goal and it looks awesome. Post from Chris on
