New Construction Home — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
So you just closed on a new home in Chamblee—maybe in the Peachtree-Chamblee corridor or closer to Downtown—and you're staring at this patch of dirt in your backyard wondering what comes next. Around here, especially in DeKalb County's urban clay soil, getting grass to actually thrive can be a battle. Between the compact lot sizes a lot of Chamblee homes sit on and the shade patterns from mature trees, a traditional lawn can turn into a brown, muddy headache before your first summer ends. That's where a putting green comes in. A synthetic turf installation gives you that manicured, golf-course look without fighting the clay, without watering constantly, and without watching it die off in July. We've installed dozens of putting greens in neighborhoods like yours throughout the area, and we know exactly what works in Chamblee's specific conditions. The drive from our shop is quick—about 25 minutes—which means faster turnaround on your project and easier follow-ups if you ever need adjustments. Your new construction home deserves landscaping that actually performs, not just looks pretty on move-in day.
Chamblee's DeKalb urban clay is notoriously dense. Standard sod struggles because water either pools on top or doesn't drain properly, and that clay compacts even more over time—especially on the smaller lots common throughout the Peachtree-Chamblee corridor. A putting green sidesteps that problem entirely. We install proper base layers and perforated drainage systems that handle the clay situation, so you're not dealing with soggy spots come fall or winter. Sunlight varies a lot in Chamblee depending on where you're situated. If you've got mature trees (which a lot of homes here do), afternoon shade might be heavier than you'd expect. Synthetic turf doesn't care—it stays green and uniform whether you get four hours of direct sun or eight. We also see a lot of HOA considerations in new construction developments around Chamblee. Most are totally fine with artificial turf for putting greens, but we always check your community rules upfront to make sure the specifications fit. Installation on compact lots is actually one of our strengths. We work with tight spaces, existing hardscaping, and drainage constraints that come with urban infill and newer subdivisions in this area.
Absolutely. We actually prefer working with clay because it's predictable—we install a proper base system with drainage fabric and perforated pipe that prevents pooling. The turf itself sits on top of that system, so the clay underneath doesn't matter. We've done this hundreds of times in DeKalb County, and Chamblee clay is standard for us.
Even modest yards work. We've built greens as small as 200 square feet in tight Chamblee backyards and as large as 1,500. The size really depends on your layout and budget. During a site visit, we'll show you exactly what fits your space and complements your new home's layout.
Yes, proximity to the trail doesn't affect installation. We just need to make sure drainage flows correctly away from neighboring properties and that we're not disturbing any easements. We handle that in our initial site assessment—it's a standard consideration for us in this area.
Most putting greens in Chamblee take 3–5 days from start to finish, depending on size and base prep needs. Since we're 25 minutes away, we can schedule efficiently and usually finish before you know it. Weather might add a day or two, but that's rare.
