Daycare Yard — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Your kids spend most of their time indoors or on concrete these days, right? A sport court in your Lawrenceville backyard changes that equation. Whether you're in the historic neighborhoods near the Gwinnett County Courthouse or over in the Collins Hill area, we've built dozens of these courts for families who wanted a real reason for their kids to get outside and stay active. The thing about Gwinnett County is that yards tend to be established—mature trees, older soil, quirky topography. That's actually perfect for sport courts because you don't need a massive footprint. A 20-by-40 court fits most residential lots and gives kids basketball, four square, badminton, or just open space to move. We've installed courts that sit beautifully alongside existing landscaping, drainage systems, and neighborhood aesthetic codes. The red clay soil underneath most Lawrenceville properties needs proper base preparation—that's where our process matters—but the payoff is a surface that'll outlast the trend. Your kids get a safe, durable space. You get your yard back from looking like a dust bowl after rain.
Lawrenceville's red clay base is a blessing and a curse. It holds water and compacts unpredictably, which means we spend extra time on grading and sub-base work before the synthetic surface goes down. If you've got an older lot—and most of Gwinnett does—expect tree cover on at least part of your yard. Sport courts handle partial shade better than you'd think, but full sun exposure keeps the surface cooler and extends its lifespan. Check your HOA guidelines before you call; some neighborhoods around the historic courthouse area have specific landscape approval processes, though courts are almost universally approved once they're framed properly. Typical Lawrenceville residential lots run 0.25 to 0.5 acres, so a sport court actually maximizes unused space without overwhelming the property. Drainage is critical here due to our rainfall patterns—we slope every installation to move water away from foundation and toward existing yard drainage. The turf itself is designed for Georgia's heat and humidity; it doesn't harbor mold like natural grass does during our wet springs.
Most Gwinnett County neighborhoods, including those near Collins Hill and the historic downtown areas, allow sport courts as long as they're set back appropriately from property lines and finished with standard framing. We handle the paperwork details and can show you examples from similar Lawrenceville neighborhoods. It typically takes 2–3 weeks for approval if required.
Yes, but it requires proper installation. We excavate and slope the sub-base to direct water away from structures, then use a compacted aggregate layer under the synthetic surface. Lawrenceville's clay means we take drainage seriously—every court we've built here handles our rainfall without pooling or muddy edges.
A standard court runs 20 by 40 feet—about 800 square feet. That fits comfortably in most Lawrenceville lots without crowding the house or existing trees. We customize smaller or larger sizes depending on your space and budget.
Absolutely. Most established Lawrenceville properties have mature oaks or pines that are worth keeping. We design around them, and the partial shade they provide actually helps manage court surface temperature during hot Georgia summers.
