Backyard — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Mableton's got that classic suburban feel—tree-lined streets, solid neighborhoods, and families who actually use their backyards. A lot of our customers out here in the Heritage Park area and surrounding neighborhoods are realizing that the clay soil and Georgia heat make maintaining a natural grass court pretty exhausting. That's where a sport court comes in. Whether your kids are into basketball, pickleball, or you just want a multipurpose play surface that doesn't turn into mud after rain, we've installed dozens of these across Cobb County. The nice thing about Mableton is the mix of lot sizes—some homeowners have tight spaces, others have room to go bigger. We customize based on what you're actually going to use it for. Most of our clients tell us the same thing: they wish they'd done it sooner. No more watering, no brown patches, no excuses not to play. We're only about 18 minutes from your neighborhood, so we know the area, the drainage patterns, and exactly what holds up best in South Cobb's climate.
Mableton sits on clay-heavy soil, which is honestly the best argument for synthetic turf. That red clay holds water like nobody's business, and without proper drainage underneath a sport court, you'd have pooling issues during our typical Georgia summer storms. We always factor in a proper base layer and drainage system—it's not optional here, it's essential. Sun exposure varies quite a bit across Mableton depending on tree canopy and lot orientation. Some of the Heritage Park area properties sit shaded by mature oaks, while others get full afternoon sun. We assess each site individually because it affects ball response and wear patterns. Most Mableton yards range from quarter-acre to half-acre, which gives us good flexibility for court sizing. We've done everything from 20x40 basketball courts squeezed into tighter lots to full multipurpose setups on larger properties. HOA restrictions in some Mableton neighborhoods are pretty reasonable about backyard improvements, but we always recommend checking your covenants first. The transition zone climate means our synthetic turf handles temperature swings well—hot summers and mild winters mean less stress on the material compared to northern climates.
Absolutely. Clay is actually why we see so much demand here. We install a compacted base, drainage layer, and proper slope so water moves away from the court. During heavy Cobb County downpours, you'll stay dry while natural grass yards turn into swamps. We've done this hundreds of times in South Cobb—it's our bread and butter.
Depends on what you're building. A half-court basketball setup takes roughly 25x45 feet. A pickleball court runs about 20x44 feet. We've squeezed courts into surprisingly tight spaces across Mableton neighborhoods, and we've also built multi-sport setups on larger lots. We'll measure your property and show you what actually works.
Our premium turfs are specifically rated for heat and UV. Mableton summers get hot, but quality synthetic handles it fine—it won't melt or degrade like budget material. You'll actually get more consistent performance in heat than natural grass, which burns out or goes dormant.
Some Mableton HOAs are strict about exterior improvements, others are fine with backyard additions. Always check your covenants first. We've worked with enough local HOAs to know which ones need variance requests and which ones don't. We can help navigate that conversation if needed.
