Contractor — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Dunwoody's got some beautiful residential spaces, especially around Georgetown and Winters Chapel where families are looking to maximize their outdoor real estate. A sport court isn't just about having somewhere to shoot hoops or play tennis—it's about reclaiming that backyard from the Georgia heat and unpredictable weather without sacrificing the natural look that keeps your neighbors and your HOA happy. Here's the thing: most yards in this area sit on DeKalb clay, and that red clay gets slick when it rains and hard as concrete in summer. Traditional courts crack. Artificial turf courts don't. We've installed courts throughout Dunwoody—from the smaller lots near Perimeter Mall to the more generous properties in Winters Chapel—and the consistency is night and day compared to concrete or asphalt. You get year-round usability, minimal maintenance, and a surface that actually handles the Georgia humidity without turning into a moisture trap. Whether you've got teenagers who need a basketball court, a family that wants a multi-sport surface, or you're just tired of watching your backyard turn into a mud pit during spring rains, artificial turf sport courts are the pragmatic move. No resurfacing every five years. No weeds creeping through cracks. No seasonal downtime. Just a functional, durable court that works as hard as you do.
DeKalb clay is dense and drains poorly—that's your biggest consideration in Dunwoody. When we install a sport court, proper base preparation matters more here than in sandy areas. We're grading for drainage and using a compacted stone base that works *with* your soil type, not against it. Shade is another real factor. Properties in Georgetown and around the more established neighborhoods often have mature trees. That's great for curb appeal and summer cooling, but it affects court performance. Artificial turf in heavily shaded areas doesn't dry as fast and can develop algae growth. We factor that into material selection and surface recommendations. HOA guidelines in Dunwoody tend to be moderate—most communities approve sport courts as long as they're set back appropriately and blend with the landscape. Dunwoody Village and Winters Chapel residents should check their specific covenants, but we've worked with those boards and know what typically gets approved. Yard sizes vary significantly. Some properties near Brook Run Park have generous space; others are tighter. Sport courts are flexible—we build everything from 30x40 half courts to full 94x50 configurations. We'll work within your lot lines and make sure the court orientation, fencing, and lighting (if you want it) all make sense for your specific property.
Georgia humidity is real, but modern artificial turf is engineered for it. Our courts have built-in drainage and antimicrobial treatments that prevent moisture buildup and algae. The key is avoiding installation in deep shade where moisture lingers. We'll assess your yard's sun exposure during the consultation and recommend materials and drainage solutions specific to your property's microclimate.
Absolutely. DeKalb clay actually requires more careful base prep than sandy soil, but that's standard for us. We excavate to the right depth, compact a stone base layer that accommodates clay's poor drainage, and ensure water moves away from the court. Your clay base is stable once properly compacted—that's actually an advantage for court longevity.
We work throughout Dunwoody, including neighborhoods closer to commercial areas. Distance from landmarks isn't a limiting factor—it's setbacks from property lines and HOA guidelines that matter. Georgetown, Winters Chapel, and Dunwoody Village all have different rules. We'll pull your plat, review covenants, and handle the site planning so the court meets local requirements.
Most residential courts take 1–2 weeks from start to finish, depending on site prep complexity. DeKalb clay sites sometimes need extra grading and curing time for the base, which we build into the schedule. We'll give you a realistic timeline during the free consultation so you know exactly when you'll be ready to play.
