If you take care of a ballfield around Roswell, Marietta or Buford, you can get most of what you need from a Georgia business. That includes infield mix and mound clay, a crew to laser grade the skin, a contractor to rebuild a field that won’t drain, and someone to paint lines before a tournament. This page lists the metro Atlanta and north Georgia suppliers and contractors on InfieldFinder, grouped by what they do.
Two of these businesses are in Roswell, one is in Sugar Hill in the Buford area, and one is in Smyrna, near Marietta. The rest are spread from Carrollton in west Georgia and Dalton in the northwest to Talmo and Watkinsville in the northeast, and several are in Atlanta’s northern suburbs. Each entry gives the city so you can judge the drive.
Infield mix and mound clay
River Sand Inc. (Alpharetta) supplies red clay and infield mix to ball fields across metro Atlanta. It sells high-density red mound clay for pitcher’s mounds and batter’s boxes, where the footing has to hold up under cleats. It sells loose by the ton. Alpharetta borders Roswell, so for north Fulton fields it’s a nearby materials source.
Levinson Athletics (Roswell) is an athletic facility supplier and installer. It distributes DuraEdge engineered infield soils and Turface conditioners, along with Rawlings Hollywood bases and field-marking supplies. It also supplies and installs custom netting, protective padding and windscreens, and repairs pitching and training machines such as Sports Attack and ATEC.
The Stone Store (Athens) is a stone and landscape materials yard with a dedicated sports field materials line. It sells infield mix, clay-based infield conditioner and brick dust for baseball and softball fields, and delivers around Athens, Oconee County and Braselton.
Looking for a “baseball sand supplier”? Plain sand isn’t the answer for a skinned infield. The skin needs an engineered blend of sand, silt and clay, and a mix with too much sand won’t hold together. Despite its name, River Sand’s listing describes clay and infield mix, not plain sand. The best supplier for your field is usually the nearest one that can tell you the sand/silt/clay percentages of what it sells. For more options, browse infield mix suppliers and mound & plate clay sources.

Call one of these when the field won’t drain, the grade is off, or you’re starting from bare ground. Ask for a site visit before you ask for a price.
Ongoing maintenance
Field and Fairway Unlimited, Inc. (Talmo) is an athletic field maintenance contractor for baseball and softball facilities across the Southeast. It does GPS-guided laser grading to move water off the skin and away from the grass edges, and aerification to relieve compaction from foot traffic.
Laserturf SE also does annual tilling and laser grading of infields and laser top dressing, so it can handle the rebuild and the yearly upkeep.
Sports Turf Services (Roswell) also does infield laser grading, along with topdressing, aeration and fraise mowing for sports fields.
A yearly grading visit doesn’t replace dragging and raking after every game. It fixes what your drag mat can’t.

Windscreens, padding and netting
The Windscreen Factory (Powder Springs) makes custom windscreen, netting, fencing and fence cap, padding and signage for athletic facilities. Its baseball and softball line covers backstop and outfield windscreen, dugout padding and field branding. Powder Springs is in Cobb County, the same county as Marietta, so for Cobb fields it’s a close source for windscreen and dugout padding.
Levinson Athletics (Roswell) also supplies and installs custom netting, protective padding and windscreens.
Batting cage netting and repair
One Georgia listing covers batting cages directly. Atlanta Batting Cage (Smyrna, near Marietta) is a family-owned batting cage company with more than 25 years in business. It sells and installs batting cages, custom baseball and softball netting, backstops, dugout rails and cage turf, and it provides 3D CAD layouts for cage projects. None of the Georgia listings mention cage repair specifically, so ask whether it works on an existing cage. The Windscreen Factory does make netting, so it’s worth a call. Ask directly whether it builds or replaces cage nets.
Otherwise, these netting companies list batting cage products. None of them is in Georgia (Atlanta Batting Cage is the local option), so ask about shipping and whether they install in your area:
- West Coast Netting, Inc. (Kingman, Arizona, with a second location in Cocoa, Florida): batting cage nets, plus design, engineering and installation.
- Carron Net Company, Inc. (Two Rivers, Wisconsin): batting cage nets and frames, made to order.
- Cimarron Sports (Tulsa, Oklahoma): batting cage systems, plus custom netting and installation for cages.
- NETEX Sports USA (Cedar Park, Texas): designs, fabricates and installs batting cages.
- Batting Cages Inc (Everson, Washington): cage frames, nets and hardware packages, plus custom cage configurations.
Before you call about a torn cage, measure the frame’s length, width and height. Take photos of the damage and of where the net attaches. It speeds up any quote.
For bases, drags, tarps and hand tools, American Sports Fields in Knoxville, Tennessee lists the Southeast as its service area. Closer to home, Levinson Athletics in Roswell distributes Rawlings Hollywood bases and field-marking supplies. For national catalog suppliers, browse all equipment dealers.
How to pick a local supplier
- What’s your delivery radius, and what does it cost to reach my field? Mix and clay are heavy, and freight can eat a small budget fast. That’s the main reason to buy local.
- Is there a minimum order? If a supplier sells by the ton, ask whether they’ll deliver a small top-dress load before you plan around it.
- Do you install, or just deliver? Some businesses on this page build and maintain fields. A materials supplier may only drop a pile, so know who will spread and compact it.
- What’s in the mix? A good supplier can give you the sand/silt/clay percentages.
- Where can I see your work? A nearby park or school field you can walk tells you more than a brochure.
- How far out are you booked? Get on the schedule well before opening day.
