Sub Base Types — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
A putting green in your Dunwoody backyard changes everything about how you spend your free time. Instead of driving out to a course, you're rolling putts from your patio in Georgetown or Winters Chapel while the neighbors watch in envy. The reality is that most Dunwoody lots—especially the tree-lined properties around Brook Run Park—get a mix of sun and shade that makes real grass putting surfaces temperamental. You'd be reseeding, fighting fungus, and cursing brown patches every other season. Synthetic putting green turf solves that completely. It stays true year-round, handles the Georgia humidity without getting spongy, and gives you that tournament-quality surface without the maintenance nightmare. We've installed dozens of greens across DeKalb County, and Dunwoody homeowners consistently tell us it's the best upgrade they've made to their outdoor space. Whether you're in the Dunwoody Village area or closer to Perimeter, a properly installed putting green becomes the focal point of your yard—and honestly, the most-used feature in most homes we work with.
Dunwoody sits on DeKalb clay, which is dense and doesn't drain the way you'd want for a natural putting surface. That clay base actually works in your favor with synthetic turf because we engineer proper sub-base layers to manage water and ensure a level, stable platform. Most of the residential lots here are shaded by mature trees—a blessing for summer comfort, but something real grass struggles with. Our synthetic greens perform identically in full sun or dappled shade, so tree coverage isn't a limitation. The suburban lot sizes in Georgetown and Winters Chapel typically allow for 300 to 500 square feet of putting green space, which is ideal for a feature green with a practice chipping area. Spring and fall humidity in the Atlanta area can be high, but synthetic turf doesn't develop the fungal issues that plague natural greens in these conditions. We compact and level the sub-base with crushed stone to account for the clay underneath, ensuring proper drainage and preventing settling. Most Dunwoody HOA communities have minimal restrictions on artificial turf putting greens, especially when they're integrated thoughtfully into the landscaping design.
Not at all—actually, clay is stable for building on. We excavate, compact a recycled asphalt base, add crushed stone for drainage, then lay the turf. The clay prevents settling, so your green stays level longer than yards with sandy soil. We've done this hundreds of times across DeKalb County and the sub-base handles it beautifully.
No. Unlike natural grass, synthetic turf performs identically in shade or sun. Dunwoody's mature trees are an asset—they keep your green cooler in summer and don't cause the fungal problems you'd get with real grass in damp, shaded conditions. Shade is actually a non-issue here.
Our sub-base design includes 4 to 6 inches of compacted crushed stone beneath the turf, with proper slope. Water drains through the synthetic backing into the base and disperses into your yard. You won't see pooling, even during heavy Dunwoody spring weather. We size the system based on your lot's natural drainage patterns.
Most Dunwoody HOA communities approve artificial turf greens readily, especially when installed as a landscaping feature rather than a full-yard replacement. We handle all the conversations and can show your HOA examples from similar neighborhoods. Rarely is this a blocker.
