Vs Concrete — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
East Point homeowners often ask us about replacing concrete patios and hardscaping with something that actually feels like grass underfoot. We get it—those concrete slabs in Downtown East Point and Jefferson Park get brutal in the summer heat, and they're not exactly inviting for barefoot entertaining. A putting green changes that equation entirely. Instead of staring at cracked concrete or dealing with the maintenance headache of natural grass in our clay-heavy South Fulton soil, you're looking at a lush, functional green space that works year-round. The neighborhoods around Camp Creek Marketplace and near the East Point MARTA station are increasingly seeing homeowners make this switch, especially on smaller urban lots where traditional lawn care becomes impractical. We've installed dozens of putting greens across the area that give clients that resort-quality feel without the constant watering, fertilizing, and mowing. Concrete is dead space. A putting green with proper drainage actually works with East Point's soil conditions rather than against them, and it holds up better in our climate than most homeowners expect.
East Point's South Fulton clay is honestly one of the bigger reasons putting greens make sense here. Clay drains poorly, which means natural grass often struggles and requires aggressive soil amendment. With synthetic turf, drainage becomes controlled—we install a perforated base layer that handles our region's heavy summer rains without pooling. The clay underneath actually stabilizes the green better than you'd think, especially on those smaller residential lots common in Downtown East Point and Jefferson Park. Sun exposure varies wildly depending on your specific location. Homes closer to the MARTA corridor and Camp Creek area sometimes have mature tree cover that creates afternoon shade, while newer developments have full-sun yards. We design putting greens differently for each scenario—shade requires different nap heights and infill choices than full-sun installations. Urban lots in East Point tend to be tighter, which is perfect for putting green sizing. You're not trying to maintain a full acre; you're maximizing a 20x30 space or a corner section. Installation timing matters too—we avoid the peak humidity window in July and August, which affects the base cure time. Most East Point jobs are concrete replacement projects, so we handle removal and proper site prep to prevent the shifting issues you sometimes see when turf is laid over inadequate grading.
Absolutely. Concrete absorbs and radiates heat, making barefoot use miserable by mid-afternoon. Synthetic turf stays cooler and doesn't crack like concrete does during our heat cycles. The infill we use is specifically selected for Georgia's humidity—it drains properly and doesn't compact the way clay does under heavy use.
Clay is actually our advantage here. We compact a proper base layer, add a perforated drainage system, and lay the turf over that. The clay beneath doesn't shift like sandy soil, so your green stays level. We've done this in Jefferson Park and Downtown East Point for years—the consistency of our clay means predictable, stable installations.
That's basically our standard East Point job. We remove the concrete, grade the base, install drainage infrastructure, and lay the turf. Takes about 2–3 days depending on the concrete size. Many of our clients want that transition from hardscape to something livable, especially in tighter urban lots near Camp Creek.
Brushing weekly keeps the nap standing upright, and occasional rinsing handles dust. No fertilizer, no mowing, no clay mud tracking into the house during rainy season. Most East Point homeowners spend 15 minutes a month on upkeep versus hours on natural grass. It's genuinely low-touch once installed.
