Money Back Guarantee — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Drainage problems in Lithonia aren't just about standing water in your yard—they're about the land itself. East DeKalb County sits on clay soil that's practically designed to trap moisture, especially near granite outcrops like the ones you'll find around Arabia Mountain. Add our Georgia humidity into the mix, and you've got a recipe for soggy lawns, eroded patches, and frustrated homeowners. That's where artificial turf drainage solutions come in. Unlike natural grass that dies when the water table rises, quality synthetic turf paired with proper subsurface drainage actually thrives in our local conditions. Whether you're in Downtown Lithonia, the Stonecrest area, or anywhere in the 30038 and 30058 zips, we've installed systems that handle the clay, the seasonal rains, and the unpredictable weather that comes with living in this part of Georgia. Our money-back guarantee means you're not gambling on a fix—you're investing in a yard that finally works the way you want it to.
Lithonia's clay soil is both a blessing and a curse. It holds nutrients well, but it doesn't let water move through easily. When we install artificial turf with proper drainage, we're essentially creating a system that works against your soil type, not with it. We lay down a compacted base, add a perforated drainage layer, and channel water away from your foundation—critical stuff in the Stonecrest and Downtown Lithonia neighborhoods where older homes sometimes have inadequate grading. The granite-heavy landscape around Arabia Mountain also means shallow digging can hit rock, so we assess each property individually. Yards in DeKalb County tend to be anywhere from a quarter-acre to half-acre, and the mix of sun and shade varies wildly depending on your tree canopy. We size drainage systems accordingly. Winter's mild here, but spring rain is relentless, so we always overspec capacity rather than underestimate. Most Lithonia properties benefit from edge-draining systems that push water toward street curbs or into French drain trenches.
Absolutely. Clay drainage issues are exactly what artificial turf was designed for. Once we install the subsurface drainage layer—which we customize based on your yard's slope and the intensity of runoff—water moves through the synthetic fibers and perforated base instead of pooling. In the Stonecrest area where we've done dozens of installations, homeowners see results immediately during the next heavy rain. Your guarantee backs that performance.
Depends on how severe your situation is. If water's pooling for days after rain, drainage fabric under the turf helps but might not be enough. We typically recommend a French drain or pop-up drain system in Lithonia properties, especially near Arabia Mountain where groundwater sits high. Most yards in your zip codes benefit from both—fabric for subsurface moisture plus a drain line to move water away from your home's foundation.
A typical residential job runs three to five days depending on yard size and complexity. We remove existing sod (or work around it), excavate and prep the base, install drainage infrastructure, add the turf, and finish grading and cleanup. Since we're 35 minutes from Downtown Lithonia and the Stonecrest area, we schedule jobs efficiently so you're not waiting weeks.
That's why we offer a money-back guarantee. If your yard still holds water after we've installed and tested the system, we'll refund the drainage portion of your investment and troubleshoot further. In six years of DeKalb County installations, we've only had to invoke this once—it works.
