Mizzou Arena floor replacement to cost $907,500

COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

The floor replacement at Mizzou Arena will cost the University of Missouri $907,500, according to the contract for the winning bid.

The contract – which was obtained by ABC 17 News on Tuesday through a records request – was awarded to and signed by Reinhardt Construction LLC on Feb. 17, 2026. The final figure came in a bit higher than the athletic department expected, which was $700,000-$785,000, according to previous reporting.

Work could not begin until May 28 because of a series of graduations that took place in the arena, according to the contract.

The contract says work will need to be “substantially completed” by Aug. 23, with final completion occurring on Sept. 4. “Substantial completion” means the court is available for “full practice” and the shot clocks work, per the contract.
