Large Yard — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Building a sport court in your Kennesaw backyard is one of the smartest moves you can make—especially if you've got the space and kids who actually want to stay home instead of glued to screens. The neighborhoods around Legacy Park and Stilesboro have some beautiful large lots, and we've installed courts in plenty of them. Here's the reality: that red clay we deal with in Cobb County is heavy stuff, and it doesn't drain well when it rains. A real sport court with artificial turf solves that problem completely. You get year-round playability without the mud, without the maintenance headache, and without watching the thing turn into a swamp every time summer thunderstorms roll through. We're based right here in Kennesaw, so we know exactly what works on local soil and what doesn't. Whether you're thinking basketball, pickleball, or just a multipurpose play surface, we'll build you something that lasts and actually performs through Georgia's brutal heat and humidity.
Kennesaw's Cobb County red clay is beautiful but terrible for drainage. If you've ever dug in your backyard near Due West or Stilesboro, you know what we're talking about—clay compacts hard and holds water like a sponge in reverse. That's why a properly installed sport court here needs a solid base layer and excellent subsurface drainage. We slope everything correctly and use the right aggregate to keep standing water away. Sun exposure varies wildly depending on whether you're near Kennesaw Mountain or tucked into a shaded lot. Some yards face south and get blasted 78+ days a year when temps exceed 90°F; others have tree cover that actually helps moderate afternoon heat. We'll assess your specific yard during the site visit—shade patterns matter because artificial turf in full sun gets hotter but also dries faster after rain. Most large-lot homes in this area run 40×60 or bigger, so we're usually working with room to build a real court, not a squeezed patch. HOA rules vary by development, so check your covenants first; most allow sport courts, but some have specific material or height restrictions.
Yes, it does get warm—surface temps can hit 140°F+ on peak days. But here's the thing: so does real grass, and grass also dies. Our turf is designed for Georgia's climate and won't brown out like sod does during droughts. It's still safe for kids to play on, and you can cool it down with water before use if you're paranoid about it. Better than mud.
Most do. But you need to check your CC&Rs before you call us. Some developments have restrictions on court size, materials, or lighting. A quick call to your HOA office takes five minutes and saves headaches. We've worked with dozens of Kennesaw developments and can usually work within their guidelines.
Depends on lot size and how much prep work the red clay needs. A 40×60 court with standard drainage usually takes 4–6 days. If we're dealing with major grading or poor soil conditions, add a few days. We'll give you a timeline after the site visit.
Absolutely. Shade is actually your friend here given Georgia's heat. We work around trees and existing landscaping. Just know that heavy leaf drop in fall means a bit more cleanup, but it's nothing compared to maintaining real grass under a canopy. Tree roots are usually fine; we've got experience with that.
