Front Yard — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Union City's been growing like crazy, and a lot of homeowners in the Shannon and Flat Shoals areas are realizing their front yards need to work harder. That's where a sport court comes in. Instead of fighting clay soil and Georgia's humidity to keep grass alive, you get a durable playing surface that handles basketball, pickleball, or multi-sport use year-round. We've worked with plenty of families in Fulton County who wanted their kids to have a place to shoot hoops or practice without waiting for the grass to dry out after a rain. The thing about South Fulton clay is it doesn't drain like you'd hope, and it gets compacted fast when kids are running on it. A sport court solves that problem completely. Your front yard becomes functional, looks sharp, and honestly, adds real value to your property. We're based just 35 minutes away, so we know exactly what works in your neighborhood and what doesn't. Whether you've got a smaller lot near the Georgia International Convention Center corridor or more space in the developing areas, we can size and design a court that fits your property and your family's actual needs.
Union City's clay-heavy soil means drainage is a real consideration—that's why a proper base layer under your sport court matters so much here. We've seen yards that pool water after heavy rain, and the court sits above all that. The sun exposure varies depending on whether you're in the Shannon area or closer to Flat Shoals; some lots get afternoon shade from mature trees, others bake in full sun. That affects color fading and surface temperature, so we talk through orientation during the design phase. Most front yards in this part of Fulton County range from 1,500 to 3,500 square feet, which gives us good flexibility for court sizing—you're not squeezed for space like some urban lots. Installation here is straightforward because we're not dealing with heavy rock or unusual grading. The humidity and seasonal temperature swings are manageable; our surfaces hold up well through Georgia's hot summers and occasional freeze-thaw cycles. HOA rules in some Shannon-area developments do have landscaping requirements, so we always confirm those upfront before we break ground.
Absolutely. Clay actually helps us because it compacts well and provides a stable base. The real benefit is that a sport court eliminates the drainage headaches clay creates for grass. Water moves through the court surface and the engineered base, so you avoid the pooling and muddy spots that plague natural lawns in South Fulton.
Our surfaces are UV-stabilized and rated for Georgia's intense summer sun. Yes, there's some gradual color shift over many years—that's normal. Depending on which Flat Shoals or Shannon side you're on, afternoon shade from trees can actually slow that process. We can recommend colors that age gracefully.
Most homes in this area have plenty of room. A quarter-court for shooting hoops needs roughly 30x20 feet; a full multi-sport court runs closer to 50x30. We assess your lot during the consultation and design something that fits without overwhelming your property or violating any HOA rules.
Typically 5 to 7 days from site prep through finish. We're 35 minutes away, so scheduling is flexible. Weather and site conditions matter—if we hit a rainy spell, we might extend the timeline slightly, but we keep you updated throughout the process.
