Backyard — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
A lot of Brookhaven homeowners tell us the same thing: they love their neighborhood's tree-lined streets and established character, but their backyards don't quite match that polish. Whether you're in Historic Brookhaven, Ashford Park, or Drew Valley, that clay-heavy soil and Georgia's humidity can make maintaining a lush lawn feel like a losing battle. That's where a putting green comes in. We've installed artificial greens for dozens of homes here over the past few years, and the difference is immediate. You get that manicured, country-club look without the weekly mowing, fertilizing, and brown patches that come with natural grass in DeKalb County. Most of our Brookhaven clients are thinking about this the same way: they want their backyard to be an extension of their home—a place where they can actually enjoy their property and maybe sink a few putts without staring at crabgrass. Your yard deserves better than fighting the clay. We're just 30 minutes away, and we know exactly what works in this area.
Brookhaven sits on some of the toughest soil in the metro Atlanta area. That heavy DeKalb clay doesn't drain well, especially during our wet springs, and it gets rock-hard and compacted by summer. Natural grass struggles with it, and trying to amend that soil for a putting surface can eat up your budget fast. Artificial turf sidesteps the whole problem. Your putting green will play true year-round, no matter what the weather throws at it. Most yards in your neighborhoods are quarter-acre to half-acre lots with mixed sun and shade from mature trees—actually ideal for a putting green installation. Shade won't kill artificial turf the way it kills St. Augustine or Bermuda. We'll assess your drainage situation during the site visit. If water pools near your home, we can slope the base properly to direct it toward your drainage system. Many Brookhaven properties also have HOA guidelines worth checking—though most of us find that a well-maintained putting green actually increases curb appeal and fits right into the neighborhood aesthetic.
Absolutely. DeKalb clay is dense and doesn't drain naturally, so we excavate properly and lay a perforated base before the turf goes down. This prevents standing water and keeps your green playable even after heavy rain. It's an extra step that matters on clay, but it's exactly what makes the difference between a green that lasts and one that becomes a muddy mess.
Yes—one of the real advantages. Artificial turf doesn't need sunlight, so those mature oaks and pines in Historic Brookhaven and Drew Valley won't be a problem. In fact, dappled shade keeps the surface cooler in summer. The only thing we watch for is heavy leaf drop in fall, but that's about maintenance, not playability.
Slopes are fine and actually more interesting for a golf green. A lot of Brookhaven lots have natural grade changes. We'll work with your terrain to create challenge and variety. Good drainage on a slope is actually easier than on flat ground, which helps in our clay-heavy area.
Most putting green projects take two to four days depending on size and ground prep. We're based about 30 minutes away, so scheduling and follow-up service is straightforward. We handle the whole project—excavation, base, drainage, turf installation—and we're familiar with Brookhaven properties and what works here.
