Before After — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Sport courts have become the centerpiece of Brookhaven backyards—and we've watched the transformation happen across Historic Brookhaven, Ashford Park, and Drew Valley. Homeowners in these neighborhoods are tired of patchy grass that can't handle regular basketball, tennis, or pickle ball play. That's where artificial turf sport courts come in. The established lots around here—many backing up to mature trees or facing the afternoon Georgia sun—need a surface that actually performs year-round without turning into a muddy mess during our humid summers. We've installed dozens of these courts within 30 minutes of Brookhaven, and the before-and-afters tell the story: a dead or dying lawn transforms into a low-maintenance, professional-grade playing surface that holds up to daily use, competitive play, and the unpredictable weather patterns DeKalb County throws at us. Your kids can practice their jump shot without waiting for the ground to dry. Your family can host weekend tournaments without worrying about divots or bare patches. And unlike natural grass in our clay-heavy soil, artificial turf won't compact or thin out under foot traffic. Whether you've got a small corner lot in Ashford Park or a larger property near Town Brookhaven, a sport court is an investment that actually pays back in how your family uses the yard.
Brookhaven's soil profile—predominantly that dense DeKalb urban clay—creates real drainage challenges for traditional grass. Water sits, roots struggle, and high foot traffic turns yards into hardpan pretty quickly. That's exactly why sport courts work so well here. Our artificial turf systems account for the area's moisture patterns and come with engineered subsurface drainage so water doesn't pool during our wet springs or after the afternoon thunderstorms we see in summer. Sun exposure varies significantly depending on where your property sits. Historic Brookhaven lots tend to have mature tree canopy, which is beautiful but tough on grass. We design court orientation and turf pile height to maximize performance whether you're in dappled shade or full afternoon sun. Most Brookhaven residential lots—especially in Drew Valley and Ashford Park—range from 6,000 to 15,000 square feet, which gives us good flexibility for court sizing without eating up your entire yard. Installation on established properties requires careful planning around underground utilities and existing hardscape. We always call 811 before breaking ground, and we've navigated the specific utility patterns in these DeKalb neighborhoods dozens of times. The result is a court that performs like a professional facility while fitting naturally into your property's footprint.
Most Brookhaven HOAs—whether Historic Brookhaven, Ashford Park, or Drew Valley—permit sport courts as long as they're properly designed and screened. We've worked extensively with local covenants and can help you navigate the approval process. Modern sport court surfacing looks clean and intentional, not like random turf. We recommend presenting a site plan and material samples to your HOA before installation. In nearly every case, communities appreciate a well-maintained court over a struggling natural grass yard.
DeKalb's heavy clay actually works in our favor. It provides excellent base compaction and stability, which means your court foundation won't shift or settle unevenly. The real benefit is drainage—our engineered subsurface system routes water away from the court surface itself, preventing the pooling and mud that plague natural grass in clay-heavy yards. We've installed courts throughout DeKalb, and this soil type consistently delivers long-term durability.
Absolutely. Most Brookhaven residential properties—6,000 to 15,000 square feet—have room for a half-court or full court depending on your space and priorities. We custom-size every installation. A half-court fits nicely into side or back yards in Ashford Park and Drew Valley without dominating the landscape. During your site visit, we'll show you realistic options and help you choose a footprint that works with your home's layout and existing trees.
Georgia's humidity and occasional heat can actually be managed with minimal effort. We recommend occasional rinsing in summer to keep the surface cool and free of debris, and light power-washing once or twice a year. Unlike natural grass in our clay soil, you're never watering, fertilizing, or reseeding. Most Brookhaven homeowners spend 30 minutes per month on maintenance—mostly just clearing leaves from nearby trees and the occasional hose-down.
