You can use this code to change the background color:

FloatingActionButton button = findViewById(R.id.your_button);
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT == Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP && button instanceof AppCompatButton) {
    ((AppCompatButton) button).setSupportBackgroundTintList(ColorStateList.valueOf(*your color in integer*));
} else {
    ViewCompat.setBackgroundTintList(button, ColorStateList.valueOf(*your color in integer*));
}
