Drainage — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Living out here in Chattahoochee Hills means you've got space—real space. Those rolling estate lots in Serenbe and the Rico area are perfect for families who want room to play, but they also come with challenges that flat suburban yards don't have. A sport court needs to handle Georgia's weather, the clay-heavy soil we're dealing with in South Fulton, and the drainage realities of hillside properties. We've installed courts for homeowners throughout the area who realized that just laying down artificial turf without thinking through water management is a recipe for soggy, unusable courts come spring. That's where proper drainage becomes non-negotiable. Whether you're looking to give your kids a dedicated basketball or tennis space, or you want a multi-sport surface that handles the wet season without pooling, the setup matters. We work with the terrain you've got, not against it.
Chattahoochee Hills sits on South Fulton's rolling topography, which is both a blessing and a challenge. Your soil tends toward clay, especially on the larger estate lots common in Serenbe and Rico—that's dense, slow-draining material that'll trap water if your court base isn't engineered properly. The good news is your elevation changes actually help us work with gravity instead of against it. We design drainage systems that account for slope, directing water away from the court surface and into proper retention areas or French drains that won't turn your yard into a swamp. Georgia's humidity and afternoon thunderstorms are facts of life here; we size our sub-base and permeable layers accordingly. Since your properties tend to be larger with mature trees, sun and shade patterns vary significantly—this affects how quickly courts dry after rain and influences turf material selection. Most Serenbe and Rico homeowners appreciate courts that blend with the natural landscape aesthetic too, so we work with colors and finishes that complement the wooded, rolling-hill character of the area.
Yes, but it requires the right foundation. Clay-heavy soil like what you've got in South Fulton doesn't drain naturally, so we install a properly engineered sub-base—typically crushed stone layers—beneath the court. We also slope the court slightly and often integrate French drains or surface channels to move water away from play areas. Your property's natural slope actually helps us direct drainage downhill. This is standard for us in Fulton County.
Not necessarily different turf, but definitely different drainage engineering. Georgia's wet season can be brutal—we see courts fail because they're installed flat or on poor-draining base materials. We use premium artificial turf with excellent permeability and pair it with a sub-surface system designed for high rainfall. Your Serenbe or Rico property's terrain actually gives us good options for managing runoff naturally.
We service Chattahoochee Hills regularly, so scheduling is straightforward. The installation itself typically takes 5–10 business days depending on court size and site prep needed. Clay soil and slopes sometimes require extra excavation and drainage work, but we build that into our timeline upfront.
Serenbe has design guidelines, and we're familiar with them. Most sport courts fit within those standards, especially if you work with natural-looking materials and colors. We've completed multiple installations in Serenbe and Rico and can help you navigate approval requirements before you commit.
