Backyard — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Johns Creek homeowners in neighborhoods like Country Club of the South and St Ives are discovering what a sport court can do for a backyard—and honestly, it changes the game. Whether your kids are into basketball, pickleball, or just want a smooth surface that doesn't turn into a mud pit after rain, an artificial turf sport court is the answer. The thing is, our clay-heavy Fulton County soil doesn't drain the way you'd want it to, especially after a Georgia downpour. A properly built sport court solves that problem while giving you a maintenance-free surface that looks sharp year-round. We've installed these throughout the Johns Creek area, and the difference between a DIY attempt and a professional installation is night and day. You're not just laying down turf—you're building a base system that handles our humidity, our occasional heavy rains, and the wear that comes with regular use. Most families tell us they wish they'd done it sooner.
The clay soil around Johns Creek and Fulton County presents a real challenge for drainage. If you've ever noticed puddles lingering in your yard after rain, that's the clay at work. For a sport court installation, this means we're not just placing turf on top of existing ground—we're building a proper foundation with drainage layers underneath. The upscale subdivisions here typically have larger backyards, which is perfect for a full-size court, but we also work with tighter spaces in established neighborhoods. Shade can be an issue depending on your lot's tree coverage and orientation. Near Autrey Mill and Newtown Park, properties vary widely in sun exposure. We factor that into material selection because some turf performs better in partial shade. Your HOA may also have guidelines about court dimensions, color options, or perimeter edging—we're familiar with how these communities operate and make sure your installation stays compliant. The Georgia heat and humidity mean we size the base thickness appropriately and ensure proper drainage is built in from day one.
Absolutely. Clay is actually why you need a sport court. We install a proper drainage base system—crushed stone and perforated layers—that prevents water from pooling the way it does on raw clay. This keeps your court playable even after heavy Fulton County rain. The base we use is proven to handle our soil type and humidity.
Most homes in Country Club of the South and St Ives have room for a half-court (about 47' x 25') or full court (94' x 50'). We also design custom-sized courts for smaller yards. We'll visit your property, assess the space, and show you realistic options that fit your lot and HOA rules.
From site prep to finished court, plan on 2–3 weeks depending on weather and ground conditions. We work around Johns Creek's typical spring and fall schedules. If you're planning for summer use, starting the process in early spring gives us the best window before the heat hits hardest.
Most Johns Creek subdivisions require approval. We help navigate that process and provide HOA-compliant designs. Country Club of the South and St Ives have specific guidelines we're familiar with. We'll work with you to ensure your court meets those standards before we break ground.
