Drainage Solutions — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Your pool deck in East Point doesn't have to turn into a mud pit every summer. We've spent years installing artificial turf around pools throughout Fulton County, and we've seen firsthand how that thick South Fulton clay—the kind that dominates yards from Downtown East Point to Jefferson Park—just doesn't play well with traditional sod or bare ground. One heavy rain, and you're either standing in standing water or tracking clay into your house. Artificial turf solves that problem completely. It gives you a clean, dry surface to walk on year-round, drains water away fast, and stays soft underfoot without the constant maintenance. We're based just 30 minutes away, so we know exactly what East Point pools need. Whether you've got a small corner lot near Camp Creek Marketplace or a bigger residential setup closer to the MARTA station, we can design and install a turf system that handles your local drainage challenges and keeps your pool area looking sharp. No more soggy ground, no algae blooms, no slipping hazards—just a comfortable outdoor space you'll actually use.
East Point's clay-heavy soil is actually the biggest reason pool owners in your area choose artificial turf. That dense, compacted earth doesn't let water permeate the way sandy or loamy soils do, which means puddles form fast around pool decks and patios. Our drainage solutions sit on top of a gravel base that directs water away from your pool equipment and foundation—critical in neighborhoods like Jefferson Park and Downtown East Point where lot sizes are tighter and grading matters more. The sun exposure varies depending on your property's orientation; homes near the MARTA corridor and Camp Creek area often have better afternoon shade from surrounding structures, which can actually extend your turf's lifespan by reducing UV stress. We also pay attention to slope and runoff patterns unique to Fulton County's topography. Most residential pools in East Point benefit from a slight crown in the turf installation—we angle it so water naturally flows away rather than pools at the deep end. Installation is straightforward on clay because we're not fighting against existing root systems or trying to remove hardpan. We excavate about 2-3 inches, lay our perforated drainage mat, add the base, compact, and install. The whole process typically takes 1-2 days depending on deck size.
Absolutely. That's exactly why it works so well here. Our drainage system sits on top of your clay base—the water doesn't have to soak through the clay itself. The mat and gravel base do the work, channeling water away from your pool and deck. We've installed systems throughout Fulton County that handle heavy summer storms without any pooling.
Most residential pools in the Downtown East Point and Jefferson Park areas take one to two days. We excavate, install the drainage base, and lay turf in a single visit. If your deck is larger or has complex grading needs, we'll schedule accordingly. Either way, you're back in your pool within 48 hours.
It gets warm in direct sun, but not dangerously so. Because we're just 30 minutes away in South Fulton, we install turf rated for Georgia heat and UV. Plus, pool water naturally cools the surrounding area. You can walk barefoot comfortably, and if it feels hot during peak afternoon, a quick splash cools it instantly.
We recommend professional installation, especially on clay soil. Getting the drainage base right—gravel depth, compaction, slope—is where most DIY projects fail. One mistake and you're back to puddles. Our crew handles the grading and site prep that your property specifically needs.
