Military Discount — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Clarkston's compact urban lots come with a real drainage challenge—especially around the Milam Park area and Downtown Clarkston where DeKalb clay sits thick and water pooling is basically guaranteed after a heavy rain. We've spent years working on yards in your neighborhood, and we know that poor drainage doesn't just ruin your landscape plans; it kills your foundation peace of mind and creates mosquito breeding grounds nobody wants. Artificial turf is a smart solution, but it only works if the base is right. That's where we come in. Our team handles the full drainage repair process—regrading, installing proper subsurface systems, and laying down quality turf so water moves where it should instead of collecting in your yard. For military families stationed nearby or veterans in the Clarkston community, we offer service discounts that reflect our respect for your service. Whether your yard floods after spring storms or stays soggy weeks after rain, we'll diagnose the problem, fix it properly, and get you a beautiful, functional outdoor space that actually drains.
DeKalb clay is dense and compacts easily, which is exactly why drainage repair matters so much in Clarkston. The soil doesn't naturally move water downward—it tends to hold it, especially in the tighter residential lots common around Downtown and Milam Park. When we install artificial turf, we're building from the ground up: removing old sod, regrading to create subtle slope (even 1–2% makes a difference), and laying down a perforated base layer that lets water escape instead of pooling underneath. Clarkston's urban footprint means most yards are moderate-sized with mixed sun exposure and mature trees overhead. That actually works in your favor for turf installation—less UV stress on the synthetic fibers, and drainage systems don't get as stressed by water runoff in shaded areas. Many properties here have older underground drainage that's either failed or was never installed correctly. Our crew inspects and repairs or replaces these systems to ensure water flows toward storm drains or a designated swale, not into your crawlspace or basement. Summer heat can still be intense, so we recommend 8mm or thicker infill and UV-stable fibers rated for Georgia's climate.
DeKalb clay doesn't drain naturally—it seals water in rather than letting it percolate down. If your yard sits low or lacks proper grading, water collects and stays. We assess your soil profile and drainage slope, then install corrective systems (subsurface drains, regrading, or both) so water moves away from your home and into storm infrastructure instead of pooling for weeks.
Yes. We honor military service with dedicated discounts on all drainage repair and artificial turf installation. Bring your military ID or proof of service, and we'll apply your discount to the full project cost. It's our way of saying thank you to active-duty and veteran families in the Clarkston community.
Turf alone won't fix drainage—but the right turf system will work perfectly once we repair the underlying problem. We regrading, install perforated base, and route water properly. Then your new turf sits on a solid, draining foundation that lets water through instead of trapping it like natural sod often does.
Most projects run 3–5 business days depending on yard size, soil removal, and subsurface work. We typically start Monday and finish by Friday. We're based just 25 minutes away, so scheduling and follow-ups are quick. We'll give you a firm timeline before we begin.
