Fixer Upper — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Your backyard putting green doesn't have to be a pipe dream—and honestly, in Augusta, you've got some real advantages working in your favor. Whether you're in Forest Hills dreaming about hosting weekend matches, or over in Summerville where the lots tend to be a touch smaller, artificial turf gives you that tournament-quality surface without the years of maintenance headaches. The sandhill soil around here drains better than what folks deal with down in Atlanta, which actually makes installation cleaner and faster. We've worked with homeowners across all five ZIP codes in Richmond County—30901 through 30909—and the pattern is always the same: once people see a finished synthetic putting green in their yard, they wonder why they waited so long. You're not locked into watering schedules, fighting divots, or dealing with bare patches come summer. Artificial turf plays true year-round, holds up to Georgia heat, and frankly, it costs way less than you'd think to get it done right. If you've got an underused corner lot or a sad patch of grass that never quite cooperated, this is your chance to turn that space into something you'll actually use.
Augusta's sandhill terrain is legitimately perfect for putting green installation. That sandy loam base you've got means drainage happens naturally—we're not fighting the clay-heavy soil that makes other Georgia regions tricky. The actual prep work moves faster because of it, which keeps your labor costs down and gets you playing sooner. Sun exposure matters here, especially in summer months when the heat can be intense. If your yard in Forest Hills or Olde Town gets hammered by afternoon sun, we'll spec a turf with UV protection built in; if you're more shaded, there's a different grade that performs better. Lot sizes across Augusta's neighborhoods vary quite a bit. Summerville homes tend toward tighter footprints, so we often work with 8x12 or 10x15 putting greens there. West Augusta and Forest Hills sometimes have room for something closer to 15x20. We also check local HOA guidelines—not all neighborhoods have restrictions, but some do care about landscape changes. We handle that conversation upfront so there are no surprises down the road. Installation typically takes 3-5 days depending on base preparation and complexity.
That sandhill base you've got naturally sheds water instead of pooling like clay does. We don't have to build elaborate drainage systems underneath—the native soil does the work for us. Prep gets cleaner, faster, and cheaper. Contrast that with Atlanta's clay-heavy yards, and you're looking at real cost savings before we even lay turf.
Some neighborhoods have landscape review boards, others don't. We pull those details before we quote you so there's zero guesswork. Most HOAs across Richmond County are fine with putting greens since they're maintained synthetic surfaces—actually neater than natural grass. We'll handle the conversation if one's needed.
Size matters, but so does slope complexity. A 10x15 flat green is straightforward. A 20x30 layout with multiple tiers and break lines plays more like actual Augusta National greens. We design based on your space, skill level, and budget. Smaller yards still get that satisfying roll and challenge—it's just contained.
Typically 3-5 days from site prep through final turf install. Our crew handles base work, drainage setup, and top-surface installation. The sandy soil here actually speeds things up compared to other regions. You're usually putting within a week of scheduling.
