Fire Pit Area — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
A putting green in your Doraville backyard isn't just a luxury—it's a practical escape from the redevelopment hustle happening all around the Assembly area and Buford Highway corridor. We've installed plenty of greens for homeowners who want to carve out a quiet retreat without the maintenance nightmare of natural grass in DeKalb's clay-heavy soil. The neighborhoods around here, from the MARTA-adjacent properties to the Assembly district, have yards that benefit hugely from artificial turf. You get a tournament-grade playing surface that handles Georgia's humidity, doesn't compete with root systems fighting through compacted urban clay, and honestly, it just looks sharper than struggling with the soil conditions most Doraville lots were dealt. Whether you're thinking about a full 18-hole setup or just a 10-by-15 practice green, we can build it in a way that drains properly, stays true through summer storms, and gives you something genuinely fun to use year-round. No brown patches, no divot repair, no re-sodding every spring.
Doraville's got that classic DeKalb urban clay underneath most properties, which means drainage is always a conversation we have early on. Natural grass struggles with it; artificial turf thrives. The redevelopment happening in the Assembly area has brought a mix of older residential yards and newer builds, and yard sizes vary significantly—some lots are tight, others have room to work with. Sun exposure matters here too. Depending on whether your property is on the Buford Highway side or tucked into a quieter residential pocket, you might get full southern exposure or dappled afternoon shade. We design the green's orientation around that. Installation itself is straightforward once we clear the existing surface and address any drainage issues—we've learned what works in these conditions. A lot of Doraville properties sit near the MARTA corridor or in HOA-governed neighborhoods, so we always confirm any landscape guidelines before breaking ground. The clay actually works in our favor for base preparation, and the turf itself handles the heat and moisture swings without the fungal issues that plague natural grass here.
Absolutely. We use premium-grade synthetic blends rated for Georgia's climate—they're engineered to flex in heat, drain fast during storms, and won't develop the mold or fungal problems natural grass gets in humid DeKalb summers. The backing we use has built-in drainage, so water doesn't pool on that clay base. You'll get consistent putting conditions even in July.
Clay compacts and holds water, so we don't install directly on it. We excavate to proper depth, install a perforated base layer, add crushed stone for drainage, and then lay down the turf. It's the difference between a green that plays true and one that gets soggy. We've done this hundreds of times in similar DeKalb neighborhoods.
Yes. We design greens for yards of all sizes—we've built 8-by-12 practice greens that look professional and play great. Even in tighter redevelopment-area properties, we can create a functional, attractive space. It's about smart placement and using your existing landscape.
Most do, because it's still grass—just maintained better and greener year-round. We recommend confirming landscape guidelines with your HOA first (many in the Assembly area have them), but we haven't run into restrictions. We can show you examples of approved installations in similar Doraville neighborhoods.
