Before After — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Sandy Springs North homeowners have figured something out that the rest of Fulton County is catching up to: a sport court in your backyard changes everything. We've transformed yards across the Abernathy corridor and near the Dunwoody border—places where families actually live and want to play, not just scroll through their phones. The thing about North Fulton is that your soil is heavy clay, your summers are humid, and your lot might be tucked between mature oaks or sitting in full Georgia sun. A standard grass court? It doesn't hold up. It turns into a muddy mess after rain, or it dries out and cracks. That's where artificial turf for sport courts comes in. We've installed courts for basketball, pickleball, and multipurpose play within 28 minutes of our shop, and we know exactly how to make them work in Sandy Springs North's climate and soil. Your before-and-after doesn't just look great—it actually performs through the humid springs, the intense summers, and the occasional winter freeze.
Sandy Springs North sits on North Fulton clay, which drains poorly and holds moisture—great for old-growth trees, terrible for natural grass courts. If you've tried to maintain a basketball court or play area on native soil here, you know it gets slippery, compacts under foot traffic, and takes forever to dry after rain. That's why we size your subsurface drainage carefully. We're also working with either full sun exposure or dappled shade depending on where your lot sits—some yards near Morgan Falls have significant tree cover, while others along the Abernathy corridor get blasted with afternoon heat. Both situations matter for turf selection and infill type. HOA rules in the neighborhoods around here tend to be reasonable about backyard improvements, especially when they're contained and well-maintained, but we always review covenants first. Lot sizes in Sandy Springs North typically run 0.5 to 1.5 acres, which gives us good flexibility for a 20-by-40 or 30-by-50 court. Installation is straightforward once we grade and compact—no surprise rock layers or underground utilities we haven't seen before. We'll handle the site prep, base installation, and turf seaming so it looks like one seamless playing surface, not a patchwork.
Our subsurface drainage system is built specifically for North Fulton clay. Water doesn't sit on top of the turf or get trapped underneath—it percolates through the base layers and disperses. Humidity won't damage the turf itself, and because there's no live grass to rot or mold, you skip the fungal issues that plague natural courts in humid climates. You'll get consistent playability year-round.
Not really. If you've got oak cover like many yards near Dunwoody, that's actually fine—artificial turf doesn't require direct sun to stay functional. Full-sun courts in the Abernathy area do get warmer underfoot in July and August, so we can recommend infill options that keep the surface cooler if that matters to you. Either way, the turf won't thin out or develop bare spots.
Most residential courts in this area take 5 to 7 days from start to finish. We schedule site prep (grading, base compaction), base layer installation, seaming, and infill in sequence. Since we're 28 minutes away, scheduling is easy. Once we start, you'll see the transformation happen fast—that before-and-after usually shocks homeowners.
Most HOAs here allow backyard courts as long as they're setback from property lines and well-maintained. We review your covenants before you sign on and can adjust court placement or size to comply. In the 15+ years we've worked in this area, we've rarely hit a hard 'no'—HOAs know these courts boost property value.
