Spring Special — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Stone Mountain homeowners know the drill: spring arrives, the kids want to shoot hoops or set up a badminton net, and suddenly your yard needs to do more than just look nice. That's where a sport court comes in. We've been installing artificial turf courts across DeKalb County for years, and we've seen firsthand how they transform backyards in Stone Mountain Village and Smoke Rise. The granite-heavy soil around here doesn't always cooperate with traditional grass, especially under the kind of foot traffic a sport court takes. Plus, with Stone Mountain Park just down the road drawing families outdoors year-round, your backyard becomes the go-to spot for weekend games. Spring is the perfect time to get this done—weather's cooperating, kids are energized, and you'll have the court ready for the entire warm season. Our team knows the drainage quirks of DeKalb clay and how to prep a foundation that actually lasts. We're just 30 minutes away, and we're running a spring special that makes this the right time to stop talking about it and start building.
Stone Mountain's soil profile is unique—you've got that dense DeKalb clay mixed with granite outcroppings that affect drainage in ways most installers from other areas don't anticipate. When we prep a sport court here, we're not just leveling ground; we're accounting for water runoff patterns that the local geology creates. Properties in Stone Mountain Village and Smoke Rise vary wildly in size and sun exposure, especially with mature tree coverage. Some yards get solid afternoon shade near the memorial areas of the park; others bake in direct sun most of the day. Both conditions matter for court performance and how the artificial turf holds up. We also pay attention to HOA guidelines in Stone Mountain—some neighborhoods have specific landscape rules about court placement, borders, and fencing. The mixed drainage means our base preparation is critical; we use a gravel and sand combination that works with, not against, the local water table. Spring installation is ideal because the ground isn't frozen, and you avoid the summer heat that can complicate base settling. Your court will be game-ready by early summer.
It can, which is why we don't treat Stone Mountain installs like cookie-cutter jobs. Dense clay near granite outcrop areas needs strategic base design—we layer gravel and engineered sand to encourage water movement rather than pooling. Proper slope matters too. We've installed dozens of courts across DeKalb, and the ones that perform best are the ones where we respected the local soil upfront.
Depends on your lot and what you're playing. Stone Mountain Village lots tend toward smaller yards where a 20x40 half-court fits perfectly. Smoke Rise properties often have more room for a full 30x60 court. We measure your space, talk about your actual usage, and design something that feels generous without overwhelming your landscape or violating HOA setbacks.
Spring weather in Stone Mountain is usually cooperative, so a typical residential court takes 3-5 days start to finish. We handle site prep, base installation, turf laying, and line marking. Since we're local and familiar with permitting in DeKalb County, we handle those details smoothly. You'll be ready to play within a week.
Absolutely. Artificial turf performs well in shade and sunlight alike. If you've got afternoon shade near mature trees, that's actually an advantage—it keeps the court cooler in summer. We just make sure drainage still works under those conditions. Stone Mountain's tree-heavy neighborhoods are perfect for this.
