Benefits — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Here's the thing about Lilburn backyards: you've got space, mature trees, and that red Gwinnett clay that gets hard as concrete in summer and slick as ice when it rains. A lot of homeowners around Killian Hill and near Lilburn City Park wrestle with natural grass that either burns out or turns into mud. We build sport courts that handle what Georgia throws at them—and they're built to last through your kids' basketball tournaments, your neighbors' pickup games, and whatever weather decides to show up. A sport court isn't just about looks (though they look sharp). It's about creating a durable, low-maintenance surface that actually gets used year-round. Whether you're thinking half-court for dunking or a full court setup, we'll work with your existing yard layout and build something that fits how your family actually plays. Most Lilburn properties have the room for it, and we know how to navigate around your established landscape and any neighborhood guidelines. We're local—just 30 minutes away—so we understand the soil, the drainage challenges, and exactly what holds up in suburban Gwinnett.
Lilburn sits on heavy Gwinnett clay, which is beautiful for supporting tree roots but terrible for surface drainage when you've got heavy Georgia rains. That's why sport court base preparation matters here—we build proper grading and drainage into every installation so water doesn't pool and create soft spots. The tree coverage around neighborhoods like Killian Hill is a real asset for shade, but it also means you'll have dappled sun and shade patterns throughout the day. We factor that into court orientation and material selection, since some areas get intense afternoon sun while others stay cooler. Most Lilburn lots are deep, mature suburban properties with established landscaping, so we work around what you've already got rather than tearing things up. The soil composition means we can't just pour a slab and call it done—we're digging out clay, layering in proper base materials, and compacting to create a stable foundation that handles freeze-thaw cycles. Depending on your property's elevation relative to nearby Yellow River drainage patterns, we might recommend additional subsurface prep. HOA rules in some Lilburn neighborhoods have specific requirements about court dimensions and visibility from the street, so we pull permits early and make sure your installation checks all those boxes.
Absolutely, but you have to respect the clay. We excavate, compact, and lay a crushed stone base that prevents water from sitting in that heavy Gwinnett clay underneath. Proper drainage is non-negotiable around here. The clay actually gives us a stable subgrade once it's prepared right, which keeps your court from shifting or developing soft spots over time.
Half courts run about 47 feet by 50 feet, and most Lilburn lots have that depth, especially in the Killian Hill area and around Lilburn City Park neighborhoods. We'll do a site visit, measure your available space, account for setback requirements, and show you exactly what size court fits your property and any HOA rules.
Shade is actually a benefit in Georgia summers—your court won't get as hot underfoot. It doesn't damage the playing surface. The only consideration is leaf debris and keeping nearby branches trimmed back. We design court orientation to maximize usable light during peak play times, especially if you're planning evening games.
Most sport courts take 2-3 weeks from start to finish, depending on site prep and weather. Lilburn's clay means we spend extra time on grading and base work—that's time well spent preventing problems later. We work around your schedule and local weather windows to keep the project moving smoothly.
