Drainage Solutions — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
East Point homeowners are catching on to something we've been installing for years: a backyard putting green transforms how you use your outdoor space, especially in neighborhoods like Downtown East Point and Jefferson Park where lot sizes run tight and outdoor living matters. The thing about putting greens is they're not just for golf nuts. We're talking about a manicured, low-maintenance practice area right outside your back door—perfect for those rainy Georgia afternoons or quick rounds before work. Here's what makes East Point ideal for this kind of project: your South Fulton clay soil actually benefits from the drainage system we build into every green. We've been doing this work in your area for years, and we understand the specific challenges that come with Fulton County's landscape. Whether you're in a subdivision near Camp Creek Marketplace or closer to the MARTA corridor, we design greens that work with your existing yard, not against it. Our crew handles everything from the base preparation to final installation, and we're just a short drive away—meaning faster service and follow-up care when you need it.
East Point's South Fulton clay presents both a challenge and an opportunity. That heavy clay soil doesn't drain naturally, which is exactly why proper subsurface drainage matters so much when building a putting green. We install a gravel and perforated-pipe system beneath the turf that channels water away from the playing surface—critical in a region that gets consistent rainfall. Your neighborhood matters too. Downtown East Point lots tend to be smaller, so we often design compact greens (think 400–600 square feet) that maximize usable space without eating up your whole yard. Sun exposure varies depending on whether you're surrounded by mature trees or in a more open development. We assess this during the site visit because shade patterns affect both turf health and playability. Most East Point yards we work on have utility lines running underneath—we always call 811 before we dig, and we coordinate with local contractors if needed. The clay also means we sometimes need to build up the green slightly to ensure proper water runoff. It's not complicated work, but it has to be done right from the start.
Yes. South Fulton clay doesn't drain on its own, so every green we install in East Point includes a subsurface drainage layer—perforated pipe running beneath crushed stone. Without it, your green would stay wet and develop moss or soft spots. We've built dozens in Fulton County and always account for this. It adds a day or two to installation but prevents headaches later.
Most homes in Downtown East Point or Jefferson Park have enough room for a 400–600 square foot green, which gives you two or three holes to practice on. We've done smaller greens (300 sq ft) on tight lots near Camp Creek Marketplace. During a free site visit, we'll map out what works best for your yard's layout and sun exposure.
Putting-green turf needs at least 4–6 hours of direct sun daily. East Point yards vary a lot—some are tree-heavy, others more open. We'll evaluate your specific sun patterns before recommending placement. If shade is heavy, we might relocate the green or suggest a smaller practice area in a sunnier spot.
A typical backyard green takes 3–5 days, depending on site prep and drainage work. East Point clay means we spend extra time on the base layer, but it's worth it. We handle everything in-house and can usually complete your project within a couple of weeks of scheduling.
