Garage Floor — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Here's the reality: Chamblee backyards are tight. Whether you're in Downtown Chamblee or along the Peachtree-Chamblee corridor, most residential lots don't give you much room to work with. That's exactly why sport courts have become such a smart move for families around here. You get a dedicated space for basketball, pickleball, or just shooting hoops with your kids—without needing a sprawling yard. The DeKalb clay soil we deal with in this area doesn't drain like you'd want for a natural grass court anyway. Artificial turf eliminates the muddy mess that comes with our humidity and rain, and it holds up year-round without the maintenance headaches. We've installed dozens of sport courts throughout Chamblee, and homeowners consistently tell us the same thing: they wish they'd done it sooner. Your garage-adjacent or side-yard court becomes the neighborhood hangout spot, and unlike grass, it actually gets better with age instead of wearing down.
Chamblee's compact lots and dense urban layout mean your sport court installation is probably going to be a side-yard or garage-adjacent project. That's good news—it means we can work efficiently in tight spaces and tie the court into your existing hardscape. The DeKalb clay underneath is dense and doesn't absorb water well, so proper base preparation is non-negotiable. We'll handle drainage right so you're not dealing with puddles after our typical summer thunderstorms. Sun exposure varies dramatically depending on whether you're nestled near the Chamblee Rail Trail (shadier) or out toward the Buford Highway corridor (more open). We size the court and orient it based on your actual site conditions—no generic layouts. Most Chamblee properties run between 2,000–4,500 square feet, and we've gotten really good at maximizing court dimensions without looking cramped. HOA restrictions in some neighborhoods affect color choices and border materials, but we know those rules and work within them. Since we're just 25 minutes away, we can swing by for a quick site visit and give you an honest assessment before quoting.
Absolutely. We've built courts on properties all over Chamblee that people swore were too small. A half-court setup fits nicely in most side yards, and you'd be surprised how functional it is. We'll visit your property, measure the space, and show you exactly what fits without looking ridiculous. Lot size rarely kills the project—it just changes the design.
It's actually a factor we plan for. Clay compacts hard and doesn't drain naturally, so we build in a gravel base layer and slope the court slightly to move water toward your property's natural drainage. This prevents standing water and keeps the court playable after Chamblee's regular rain. It's extra work upfront, but it prevents problems down the road.
Some neighborhoods do, some don't. We're familiar with the rules in Downtown Chamblee and the Peachtree-Chamblee corridor. We can advise you on what's likely to fly before you invest time in an application. Most HOAs care more about border materials and color than the court itself, and we work within those guidelines.
A standard half-court takes 3–5 days depending on base prep and weather. Since we're local (25 minutes away), we can schedule multiple visits without long gaps. We'll give you a realistic timeline during the site visit and stick to it.
