Teacher Discount — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Teachers in Dunwoody deserve a yard that doesn't demand constant maintenance—especially when you're already managing a classroom full of demands. That's where a synthetic sport court comes in. Whether you're in Georgetown, Winters Chapel, or near Dunwoody Village, we've installed courts for educators who wanted to reclaim their weekends and give their kids (and their kids' friends) a legitimate place to play basketball, pickleball, or just run around without tearing up the natural grass. The DeKalb clay underneath most Dunwoody lots doesn't play nice with constant foot traffic anyway. We've spent the better part of a decade figuring out how to build courts in this area that handle our humidity, our occasional ice storms, and the shade from all those mature trees. As educators, you know the value of an investment that pays dividends for years—a sport court is exactly that. We're just 28 minutes away, and we work directly with teachers to make sure the project fits your budget and timeline.
Dunwoody's clay-heavy soil is actually one of the first things we assess when a homeowner calls about a sport court. Clay compacts unevenly and holds water, which means proper base preparation is non-negotiable here. We've learned to account for this in Georgetown and around Winters Chapel, where lot sizes vary but drainage challenges are consistent. The mature oak and pine canopy in many Dunwoody neighborhoods creates shade patterns that shift seasonally—we factor that into court placement to avoid moss buildup and surface degradation. Most residential lots in the 30338, 30346, and 30360 zip codes sit on slopes or have tree root systems we need to work around. HOA guidelines in some Dunwoody neighborhoods have specific requirements about court dimensions and fencing, so we always pull those early. The humidity here means we recommend slightly different surface compositions than inland Georgia—our synthetic turfs are engineered to shed moisture quickly and resist algae. Installation typically takes 5–7 days depending on base work, and we schedule around school calendars because we know summers are precious family time.
Absolutely. We excavate and remove the upper clay layer, then compact a crushed stone base in stages. This prevents the settling and cracking you'd see if we laid turf directly on DeKalb clay. The extra prep costs more upfront but keeps your court level and playable for 15+ years. We've learned this the hard way with early jobs in the area.
Partial shade is fine—modern synthetic courts handle it. Heavy, all-day shade can trap moisture and promote algae, though. We walk your property first and recommend court orientation. Sometimes we trim lower branches to improve air circulation without harming the trees that make Dunwoody beautiful.
We offer 10% off the total project cost for active K–12 educators and retired teachers in DeKalb County. Bring your school ID or recent pay stub. We also offer flexible payment plans and sometimes bundle multiple services (court + drainage work) for additional savings. Call us directly to discuss your situation.
Minimal. Sweep monthly to remove pine needles and debris. Rinse it down a few times a year, especially after heavy rain when our humidity spikes. No mowing, no fertilizing, no watering. Most Dunwoody homeowners spend maybe 2–3 hours per year on upkeep—compare that to maintaining natural grass in this clay.
