Starter Home — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
A sport court in your Tyrone backyard isn't just a luxury—it's the fastest way to get your family off screens and into active play without leaving home. Whether you're in the Shamrock area or closer to Tyrone Town Park, backyard courts are transforming how suburban families in Fayette County spend their evenings and weekends. We've installed dozens of these across the region, and homeowners consistently tell us the same thing: they wish they'd done it sooner. Your kids get better at basketball, tennis, or pickleball. You get a reason to step outside. And honestly, your property value gets a real boost. Tyrone's quiet, family-friendly neighborhoods are perfect for this kind of investment—lots of space, great sense of community, and neighbors who appreciate seeing active yards. The soil here in Fayette County can be tricky, but that's exactly why professional installation matters. We handle the base preparation, drainage, and surfacing so your court plays perfectly year-round, through our hot summers and occasional frost.
Fayette County clay is the big conversation starter here. It holds moisture and can shift slightly with seasonal changes, which means your sport court foundation needs proper drainage and a solid subbase—not something you can cut corners on. The good news is we've done this hundreds of times in your exact soil conditions. Tyrone's rolling terrain also means we assess each yard's natural slope before we break ground. A lot of homes in the Shamrock and Tyrone areas sit on generous lots with plenty of sun exposure, which is ideal for court performance and longevity. We typically see good afternoon sun in most yards, though mature trees along property lines can create partial shade zones—worth mapping out early. HOA rules vary by neighborhood, so we always pull those details upfront. Most Tyrone residents find their covenants are pretty reasonable about recreational improvements, especially when the court's screened by landscaping or positioned to blend with the property. Installation typically takes 5–7 days depending on grading needs, and the clay base prep is where we invest the most time and precision.
Most residential courts under 2,000 square feet don't require a separate permit in Fayette County, but it depends on your neighborhood's HOA rules and whether you're making grading changes. We pull all that information before we start. It's one less thing for you to worry about—we handle the legwork with the county and any homeowner associations in your area.
Clay compacts well but needs careful drainage design so water doesn't pool under your court. We excavate, add a crushed stone base layer, compact it properly, and install perimeter drainage. It takes longer than sandy soil, but the payoff is a rock-solid, stable playing surface that holds up through Tyrone's weather swings.
Acrylic or polyurethane surfaces both handle our heat fine—they'll expand and contract slightly with temperature, which is totally normal. The key is quality installation with proper sealing and joint spacing. We use products rated for Georgia's humidity and UV intensity, so your court stays playable and looking good for years.
Absolutely. Slope isn't a deal-breaker; it just needs smart grading. We cut and fill to level the playing surface, then route drainage to the low side. Some of our best Tyrone installations are on sloped lots—they often have better aesthetics because the court sits naturally in the landscape.
