Money Back Guarantee — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Atlanta's red clay doesn't play nice with water. Whether you're in Buckhead, Virginia-Highland, or over near Grant Park, most yards here deal with serious drainage headaches—especially during our heavy spring and summer downpours. That pooling water that won't go away? It's not just ugly. It kills grass, erodes your soil, and can actually damage your foundation over time. That's where artificial turf with proper drainage installation comes in. We've spent years working with Atlanta's unique soil conditions, and we've learned exactly how to solve drainage problems that other contractors overlook. Our system isn't just laying down fake grass and calling it a day. We're building a complete drainage solution underneath—one that handles Fulton County's clay-heavy soil and Atlanta's unpredictable weather. From the moment we assess your yard to the final walkthrough, we're solving the root problem, not masking it. Your money-back guarantee isn't just marketing language. We're confident enough in our work to back it with real accountability. If your new turf doesn't drain properly or hold up the way we promised, you get your money back. No arguments. That kind of guarantee only works when you actually know what you're doing, and we do.
Atlanta's Fulton County clay is famous for one thing: holding water like a bathtub. Add in our summer thunderstorms and the city's varied topography—from the neighborhoods around Piedmont Park down to lower-lying areas in Grant Park and along the BeltLine corridor—and you've got drainage challenges that generic turf installers just aren't equipped to handle. Lot sizes vary wildly too. Buckhead estates sit on sprawling properties, while Inman Park and Midtown homes often have compact yards squeezed between neighbors. Each situation needs a different approach. Our installation accounts for Atlanta's specific clay composition by building multiple drainage layers beneath the turf. We're not just thinking about your backyard either—we're considering how water moves across your entire property, where it naturally wants to go, and how to direct it safely away from your foundation and your neighbors' yards. Sun exposure changes dramatically depending on your neighborhood's tree canopy and building density. Virginia-Highland's tree-heavy blocks need different turf specifications than Westside properties. We assess these conditions during our initial walkthrough and design a system that works with Atlanta's climate, not against it.
Fulton County's red clay has extremely low permeability—water sits on top of it instead of soaking through. Our standard drainage installation includes a gravel base layer and a permeable backing that prevents water from pooling on your artificial turf. We've installed hundreds of yards across Atlanta neighborhoods where conventional solutions failed. The clay isn't going anywhere, but a properly engineered system works around it completely.
Absolutely. In fact, artificial turf with proper drainage beats natural grass for compact urban lots. We remove the old grass and soil, install our drainage system with the right slope and base materials, then lay the turf. Midtown's tight lot sizes mean we often can't grade the entire yard, so our system focuses drainage toward your storm drain or away from your foundation. It works even in tight spaces.
Our drainage system is designed to handle Georgia's intense summer thunderstorms without backing up onto your turf. Water moves through the artificial grass, through the backing layer, into the gravel base, and drains to your designated outlet—usually your existing storm drain or a slope away from your house. We size the system for Atlanta's typical rainfall patterns, and it performs consistently year-round.
Slope matters, but it's not everything. Sloped yards in Grant Park let us use gravity to our advantage. Flatter properties in other Atlanta neighborhoods need more engineered solutions—we might add a French drain or direct water toward a specific outlet. Every yard gets a custom assessment. There's no one-size-fits-all answer in Atlanta, which is why we design each system individually.
