Older Home — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Augusta's got character—especially in neighborhoods like Summerville and Forest Hills, where older homes sit on properties that have seen plenty of wear and tear over the decades. If you've got a patch of yard that's more bare spots than grass, or you're tired of fighting the sandhill soil every spring, a putting green might be exactly what your home needs. We're talking about a low-maintenance green space that actually looks intentional, not neglected. A lot of homeowners in the Olde Town area and West Augusta have discovered that artificial turf gives them back their weekends without sacrificing curb appeal. The beauty of a putting green is it works whether you're a serious golfer wanting to sharpen your short game or just someone who wants a clean, manicured look without the constant battle against our regional drainage quirks. It's an investment that pays dividends in property appearance and your own peace of mind.
Augusta's sandhill region has some advantages over the red clay you'll find further north. Your soil drains better naturally, which actually works in favor of artificial turf installation—we don't fight the same pooling issues Atlanta contractors deal with. That said, the sandy loam base means we pay attention during site prep to ensure proper grading and base layer compaction. Older homes in Forest Hills and Summerville often have established shade patterns from mature oak trees; we take those into account because even quality artificial turf performs best with decent sun exposure. Many properties here are smaller, tighter yards—common in post-war neighborhoods—so we design putting greens that maximize the space you've got without overwhelming the landscape. HOA rules vary across the county, and some communities have specific guidelines about synthetic turf. We always verify local regulations before breaking ground. Installation typically takes a few days depending on yard size and prep work, and our team handles everything from removal of old sod to final seaming and infill.
Absolutely. Modern synthetic turf is engineered for exactly this climate. Our infill materials and backing systems breathe properly, so you won't get the mold or moisture issues you might worry about. Augusta summers are hot, but that actually helps the material cure and settle faster after installation. We've installed dozens of greens throughout Richmond County without durability complaints.
Your sandhill soil already gives you a head start compared to other Georgia regions. We'll still install proper base layers and ensure grading directs water away from your home's foundation, but we're not fighting the heavy clay retention issues you'd encounter in Atlanta. Most Augusta installations require standard drainage prep, nothing exotic.
Even 200–400 square feet makes for an enjoyable practice area. Older neighborhoods like Olde Town and Forest Hills have varied lot sizes, so we work with whatever you've got—backyard corner, side yard, or dedicated space near a patio. Bigger isn't always better; a well-designed smaller green is better than a poorly configured large one.
It's doable as a DIY project if you're handy, but professional installation ensures proper compaction, seaming, and grading—especially on older properties where the ground may have settled unevenly over decades. We guarantee our work and handle the heavy lifting, so you're not spending weekends fighting infill and seams.
