Fast Turnaround — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Sport courts are becoming the go-to backyard upgrade for West Cobb families who want a dedicated space for basketball, pickleball, or multi-sport play without the maintenance headaches of natural grass. We've installed dozens of these in the Lost Mountain and Mars Hill areas, and the response is always the same: parents love having a reliable surface that handles Georgia's humidity without turning into a muddy mess after rain. The newer construction homes around Harrison High School often have the yard space to accommodate a court, and honestly, it's one of the smartest investments you can make if your kids are into sports or if you just want a solid entertaining surface. Unlike seeding and reseeding natural grass every couple years, a synthetic sport court handles our Cobb County clay base beautifully—no settling, no bare patches, no Saturday morning watering. We're based just 12 minutes from your neighborhood, which means we can get your project done quickly and handle any questions that pop up during installation. Whether you're thinking 20x40 for serious basketball or something smaller for mixed-use play, we'll walk you through sizing, surface options, and what actually works for your specific yard. Most families in West Cobb see their court as an investment in time with their kids and a reason to keep the neighborhood kids coming over. Let's talk through what makes sense for your space.
West Cobb sits on that dense Cobb County clay that most of us here know well—it drains slowly and compacts hard, which is actually perfect for sport court installation because we get a rock-solid base without a ton of prep work. That said, we always assess your yard's drainage patterns before we start, especially in the Lost Mountain area where some properties slope toward retention areas. Our crews are used to working with the red clay subsoil and know exactly how to grade and compact it so water doesn't pond under your court surface. Sun exposure varies a lot depending on whether your yard faces the tree line or gets afternoon western heat—we factor that into material recommendations because lighter-colored surfaces reflect more heat, which matters during our hot Georgia summers. Newer construction neighborhoods often have consistent soil profiles, which makes our job easier, but we still take time to check for any buried utilities before breaking ground. A lot of West Cobb homes have HOA guidelines around yard improvements, so we coordinate with your association requirements and make sure color choices and court placement align with deed restrictions. Yard size obviously matters—Lost Mountain lots vary, but we work with whatever square footage you've got, whether that's a full-sized court or a compact pickleball-focused setup.
Most courts take 3-5 days from start to finish, depending on size and site prep. Since we're based just 12 minutes away, we can schedule efficiently and usually move through the project without delays. Cobb County clay is straightforward to work with once graded, so we don't typically hit the kind of drainage or soil issues that slow down other neighborhoods. Weather can shift timelines—heavy rain might push us back a day—but we'll give you a clear schedule upfront.
Absolutely. That clay base is actually ideal for sport courts because it's dense and doesn't shift around like sandy soil. We grade it properly, compact it, and lay down your court surface—no sinking or settling. The challenge is drainage, but that's manageable with the right slope and subsurface prep, which we handle in our installation process.
We recommend lighter colors if your court gets afternoon western exposure—they stay cooler underfoot during summer. Some families choose darker colors for aesthetics and accept the heat trade-off. Polypropylene tiles handle our humidity better than some alternatives, and they shed water quickly in those afternoon thunderstorms we get. We'll walk through options based on your exact sun pattern and how you plan to use the space.
Many West Cobb neighborhoods have deed restrictions on yard improvements, so yes, check your HOA guidelines first. We help navigate that process and can show you approved color palettes and placement options. Most associations approve sport courts if they're set back appropriately and match neighborhood aesthetics. We've worked through this with Mars Hill and other local developments.
