Uv Protection — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Out here in Kennesaw, we know what summer heat does to a regular grass court. You've got nearly 80 days a year pushing past 90 degrees, and that Georgia sun doesn't take breaks. If you're thinking about adding a sport court to your backyard—whether that's in Legacy Park, over by Stilesboro, or anywhere around Due West—artificial turf with genuine UV protection isn't just nice to have, it's basically essential. We've been installing courts right here in Kennesaw for years, and we've seen firsthand how standard turf fades and deteriorates when it's not engineered for our climate. A properly installed sport court with UV-stabilized fibers will keep its color, its playability, and its durability through those brutal summer months. Whether your kids are shooting hoops, practicing tennis, or just running around, you want a surface that won't bake out or wear thin. That's where quality matters—and that's exactly what we build.
Kennesaw sits on heavy Cobb County red clay, which is both a blessing and a challenge for any outdoor installation. The good news: proper base preparation on clay is doable and actually gives you excellent drainage control. The tricky part is that clay shifts with moisture and temperature swings, so your sport court needs a solid, compacted foundation to stay level and play true year after year. Most residential properties here run anywhere from quarter-acre to half-acre, which gives plenty of room for a dedicated court without eating up your whole yard. Shade patterns matter too—if you're looking at a spot near KSU or up toward Kennesaw Mountain, tree coverage varies dramatically throughout the day. We always recommend a site visit to map sun exposure, because even with UV protection, some afternoon shade helps extend turf life and keeps players from baking. HOA communities in Legacy Park sometimes have specific guidelines about court placement and finish color, so we factor that in from day one. The red clay also means we're extra careful about proper grading and drainage—the last thing you want is water pooling on your court during spring rains.
With 78+ days above 90 degrees annually and intense Georgia sun, unprotected synthetic turf degrades fast—colors fade, fibers break down, and playability suffers within a few years. UV-stabilized turf resists this degradation and keeps its color and performance through our climate. We've seen the difference between quality and budget installations here, and it's dramatic by year three.
Red clay requires careful base prep—compaction and proper drainage are non-negotiable. We dig down, compact in layers, add crushed stone base, and ensure water moves away from the court. Skip this step, and you'll have settling and standing water issues by next spring. It's worth doing right the first time.
Most Cobb County HOAs allow sport courts, but they often have rules about placement, size, and color. We work with your HOA guidelines from the planning phase—no surprises later. Many communities actually appreciate courts because they're low-maintenance compared to grass and improve property appearance.
Full sun is typical, but some afternoon shade from trees helps extend turf life and keeps the court cooler for play. We assess your lot's sun patterns and can design placement to balance playability with longevity. Even with UV protection, a little natural shade works in your favor during our hot summers.
