Money Back Guarantee — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Building a sport court in Clarkston means creating something your family will actually use—not just another yard feature gathering dust. We've spent enough time around DeKalb County to know that compact urban lots here demand smarter solutions than traditional grass. Downtown Clarkston and the Milam Park area have plenty of families who get it: you want a surface where kids can shoot hoops or practice tennis without worrying about mud, dead patches, or maintenance that eats your weekends. Artificial turf does exactly that, and when it's installed right for Clarkston's clay soil and weather patterns, it holds up beautifully for years. Our money-back guarantee isn't just marketing talk—we stand behind every court we build because we live and work in your community. We've seen what works on these lots, and we've seen what doesn't. That's why we're confident enough to put our money where our mouth is. A sport court here isn't a luxury; it's an investment in your property's value and your family's quality of life. Let's build something that actually performs.
Clarkston's compact urban lots and DeKalb clay soil create specific challenges we've learned to work around. That dense clay doesn't drain like sandy soil does, so proper base preparation is non-negotiable—we slope and prepare sub-surface drainage before any turf goes down. You'll see a lot of shade in the Downtown Clarkston and Milam Park neighborhoods thanks to mature tree coverage, which actually works in your favor for a sport court. UV-rated synthetic fibers hold their color longer in filtered light, and they don't get scorching hot like turf in direct sun all day. Many Clarkston homeowners discover their yards sit in mixed sun-shade conditions, which is ideal for synthetic courts. One thing we always address upfront: HOA landscape rules. Some neighborhoods have specific requirements about court dimensions, fencing, or setbacks, so we coordinate with your community guidelines before breaking ground. Most residential lots here range 5,000 to 8,000 square feet, which limits court size but rarely eliminates it—we've built full-size basketball courts and multi-sport surfaces in tighter footprints than you'd expect.
Yes, but it requires the right base. DeKalb clay compacts heavily, so we install a sloped gravel base layer with perforated drainage beneath the turf. Without this prep work, water pools—we've seen it fail before. That's why our installation includes site-specific grading and drainage design. It's extra work up front, but it's why courts built correctly last 10+ years in Clarkston.
Georgia heat is real, but Clarkston's tree coverage in neighborhoods like Milam Park helps. Full-sun courts do get warm—surface temps can reach 130°F+ on black days. We recommend lighter-colored turf fibers and strategic shade from trees or structures. Many families play early morning or evening anyway, which works perfectly for Clarkston's schedule.
DeKalb County and Clarkston do require permits for structures and significant yard modifications. We handle the legwork—submitting site plans, coordinating with your HOA if applicable, and ensuring setbacks meet code. It's built into our timeline, so there's no surprise delays or fines down the road.
We're 25 minutes from Clarkston, not hours away. We live in this community, work with these soil conditions constantly, and build long-term relationships. If a court fails under normal use, we fix it or refund you. We don't have to—we choose to—because we know what we're doing and we stand behind it.
