Fixer Upper — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Your backyard in Lawrenceville has potential—especially if you're sitting on one of those older established lots that needs some real work. We get it. You've got red clay soil that's tough to manage, maybe a yard that's been neglected, or just a vision for a sport court that actually gets used instead of becoming a mud pit every season. That's where artificial turf comes in. A properly installed synthetic court transforms those problem areas into something your family will actually enjoy year-round. No more fighting with Gwinnett's humidity, no more patchy grass that dies under foot traffic, and honestly, no more excuses not to shoot hoops or play with the kids. We've worked with plenty of homeowners around the Gwinnett Historic Courthouse area and Collins Hill who started with the same doubts. They wanted something low-maintenance, durable, and real. Artificial sport courts deliver exactly that—especially in neighborhoods where the soil is working against you and the weather doesn't take it easy. The best part? Once it's down, it stays down. No seasonal replanting, no drainage nightmares when the Georgia heat breaks and the rain comes. Your court is ready when you are, and it'll hold up to whatever you throw at it.
Lawrenceville's red clay is beautiful, but it's a nightmare for traditional grass. That clay-heavy soil holds water, compacts under pressure, and creates drainage problems that get worse every year. For a sport court, this actually works in your favor—we use that dense soil as a foundation instead of fighting it. The real consideration is sun exposure. Properties around the historic courthouse area and Collins Hill tend to have mature trees, which is great for cooling but means we're assessing shade patterns carefully before layout. Full-court installations on shaded lots might need different infill choices to handle moisture buildup. Gwinnett County's humidity is another factor. We build drainage into the base layer to keep water from pooling underneath, which keeps your court playable even after heavy rain. Lot sizes in established neighborhoods here vary wildly—some properties are deeper but narrower, others have wider frontage. We custom-measure everything. Older homes sometimes have HOA requirements too, so we'll talk through color and style options that fit your community's guidelines. The installation process requires proper grading, especially on slopes common to the area. Our crew accounts for that during the base prep phase.
Red clay is actually a solid foundation once we prepare it correctly. We grade it properly to ensure water runs off rather than pooling, then compact it with a stone base layer. The clay won't shift under you like sandy soil would. The main thing is making sure drainage is built in from the start—we're preventing that clay from trapping moisture underneath your court.
Yes. We install a perforated base layer that lets water move through instead of sitting. Georgia's humid climate means we're intentional about this. Proper grading directs water away from the court, and the infill material we choose is rated for wet conditions. Your court stays playable even after downpours.
Absolutely. We assess shade patterns and tree canopy before we design the layout. Shaded courts need slightly different infill to manage moisture. If roots are in the way, we can work around them without compromising your court's integrity. It's a conversation we have early on.
For a full sport court in the Lawrenceville area, expect 3–5 days depending on site prep. If we're dealing with significant grading or drainage adjustments due to slope or clay compaction, it might extend to a week. We'll give you a clear timeline during the walkthrough.
