Monthly Financing — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Marietta's red clay doesn't play nice with water. If you've got soggy patches in your yard—whether that's in East Cobb, out toward Whitlock, or anywhere near the Marietta Square area—you're dealing with a drainage problem that artificial turf can actually solve. We've been installing premium synthetic grass across all the ZIP codes here (30060 through 30068) for years, and drainage fixes have become one of our most requested services. Here's the thing: that beautiful Georgia clay that holds up our mature oak canopies? It also holds water like a bathtub. Natural grass struggles. Muddy spots come back every spring. Your kids track mess into the house. We fix that by installing a proper base layer under your new turf, and the difference is immediate. No more swampy spots. No more dead patches where water pools. Just a usable yard that actually drains. We're just 12 minutes away from downtown Marietta, so we've seen every drainage headache this county throws at homeowners. And yes, we offer monthly financing—because a solid drainage solution shouldn't require a lump-sum payment you're not ready for.
Cobb County's red clay is genuinely problematic for traditional lawns. It compacts easily, drains slowly, and under that oak canopy shade you've got throughout most of Marietta neighborhoods, you're looking at moisture that sticks around for weeks after rain. Artificial turf eliminates the grass-growth problem entirely, but the real payoff is the engineered drainage base we install underneath. We excavate, grade, and lay down a permeable base layer that channels water away from your home's foundation—critical on those sloped lots common to East Cobb properties. For Marietta's typical residential yards, we're usually working with 500–3,000 sq ft of turf space. Shade from mature oaks means you won't have the UV stress issues that plague natural grass, which actually works in synthetic turf's favor here. Many Cobb County HOAs (especially in the more established neighborhoods) have approved artificial turf for drainage purposes, since standing water and dead grass patches create liability and eyesore issues they'd rather solve. Installation takes 3–5 days depending on existing yard condition and how much grading we need to do. We remove old sod, address compacted clay, and install the complete system so water moves toward storm drains or away from your foundation—not into your basement.
Cobb County's red clay is dense and slow-draining. Combined with Marietta's mature oak canopy, which blocks sunlight and keeps soil moist, you get perfect conditions for water pooling. Natural grass roots can't compete—they rot or wash away. Artificial turf with proper base grading solves this permanently by channeling water instead of fighting it.
It does both. We don't just lay turf on top of bad drainage. We excavate, grade, and install a permeable base system that actively moves water away from your home and landscape. The turf itself is just the top layer—the engineering underneath is what fixes the actual problem.
Most do, especially when drainage failure creates visible problems like dead spots or mud patches. We help you navigate HOA approval in neighborhoods across East Cobb and Whitlock. Bring us your CC&Rs, and we'll walk through the process. Many HOAs actually prefer it because it solves water management issues that natural grass can't.
Costs vary based on yard size and excavation needs—typically $3,500–$12,000 for a complete drainage system plus turf. Yes, we offer monthly financing so you're not paying the whole thing upfront. We'll give you a detailed estimate after a site visit, then set up a payment plan that works for your budget.
