Veteran Discount — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
A sport court in your Duluth backyard isn't just a nice-to-have—it's a game-changer for families in Sugarloaf and the Parsons area who want their kids playing basketball, pickleball, or tennis without the drive to Infinite Energy Arena every time. We've been installing synthetic courts across Gwinnett County for years, and we know exactly what works in our red clay neighborhoods. Here's the reality: natural grass wears out fast under intense foot traffic, especially during Georgia's humid summers. You end up with bare patches by July, mud after a rain, and a constant maintenance headache. A quality artificial sport court gives you year-round playability, zero watering, and a surface that actually performs better the more it's used. Whether you're in an established neighborhood near Downtown Duluth or further out, we can design a court that fits your space and your budget—and if you're a veteran, we've got you covered with a discount that reflects our gratitude for your service.
Duluth's Gwinnett red clay is beautiful, but it presents real challenges for traditional grass courts. That clay base holds moisture, which means drainage becomes critical when you're installing an artificial surface. We always recommend a proper sub-base with perimeter drainage—it keeps water from pooling and extends your court's lifespan by years. The neighborhoods in Sugarloaf and around the Parsons area tend to have established tree cover, which is great for shade during summer, but you'll want to assess whether your court location gets morning sun. That affects how quickly the surface dries after rain and influences which infill material we recommend. Lot sizes in these communities vary considerably, so we work with what you've got—whether that's a 40x60 basketball half-court or a full 30x60 multipurpose setup. HOA landscape guidelines do apply in some areas, and we'll review those with you upfront. Installation in Gwinnett clay requires proper base preparation and sometimes soil amendment, which is work we factor into every quote. The good news is that once it's in, you're not dealing with seasonal dormancy, erosion, or the compaction problems that plague natural courts in our climate.
Yes, we strongly recommend it. Gwinnett red clay doesn't drain naturally, so water sits. We install a compacted base layer with perimeter drainage channels that route runoff away from the court. It's an upfront investment that prevents soft spots, algae growth, and premature surface failure. Worth every penny in our climate.
A half-court runs about 40 by 50 feet and fits most established Duluth lots. Full court is 50 by 94 feet and requires a bigger footprint. We visit your property, measure your space, and show you options scaled to what actually works. HOA setback rules apply in some neighborhoods, so we check those first.
Modern synthetic surfaces are designed for southern heat. We recommend lighter-colored infill and proper surface materials that stay cooler than asphalt. Early morning and evening play is comfortable. The tree cover many Duluth properties have also provides natural shade—another reason we assess your specific lot during consultation.
We offer 10% off the total cost for all veterans—active, retired, or separated. Bring your DD214 or military ID, and we apply it at contract. It's a small way to say thank you. Just mention it when you call or email for your free estimate.
