Pool Deck Edge — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Hiawassee sits in one of Georgia's most beautiful mountain settings, and a lot of homeowners here are discovering that artificial putting greens transform their outdoor spaces—especially around pools and deck areas where natural grass struggles. The lake-influenced weather patterns and that rich North Georgia mountain soil create challenging conditions for maintaining a flawless lawn, particularly when you're trying to keep a putting surface pristine. We've installed dozens of synthetic putting greens throughout Towns County, and we've learned exactly what works in this elevation and climate. Whether you're in Downtown Hiawassee or out near the Lake Chatuge shoreline, an artificial putting green gives you year-round playability without fighting the soil moisture and shade from surrounding trees. You get the putting experience you want, the look you're after, and zero fuss with drainage or seasonal die-off. It's become one of our most popular requests from homeowners who already have pools and want to maximize their deck and yard investment.
Hiawassee's mountain soil tends to retain moisture longer than typical Georgia clay, which is actually one reason artificial turf makes sense here. Natural grass struggles with that persistent dampness, especially on north-facing slopes or under the tall pines that shade many properties around Lake Chatuge. Your deck and pool area likely gets variable sun exposure—brilliant afternoon light mixed with morning shade from the ridgeline. Synthetic putting green materials are designed to handle that without the brown patches or algae growth you'd see with sod. Installation in this area means we're working with deeper topsoil and accounting for the seasonal runoff from higher elevation. Most Hiawassee yards sit on larger lots with mature landscaping, so we're typically building around established trees rather than on open, flat land. That's actually ideal for putting greens—the shade keeps the surface cooler in summer, and the surrounding vegetation frames the installation beautifully. We also see excellent drainage results here because of the natural slope and sub-soil composition. No special leveling or expensive drainage work is usually needed the way it might be in flatter parts of Georgia.
Absolutely. Our synthetic turf is designed for mountain climates and handles freeze-thaw cycles without degradation. Unlike natural grass that dies back or turns brown, your putting green stays vibrant green year-round. Winter moisture and occasional ice don't damage the synthetic fibers—they just drain through the permeable backing into the sub-base we install. You'll actually have better winter playability than you would with natural grass.
Cost depends on the square footage and specific site conditions—deck prep, soil removal, sub-base installation, and turf grade all factor in. Most residential putting greens in the Hiawassee area run between $8 to $16 per square foot installed. We provide free on-site estimates and can break down exactly what the project entails for your property.
Putting greens are typically considered landscape improvements and don't require permits in unincorporated Towns County areas. If your property falls within city limits or under HOA rules, those guidelines might apply. We handle all local compliance questions during the estimate and can advise you based on your specific address.
Yes. Hiawassee properties often have natural slope and elevation changes, especially closer to the lake. We design the sub-base and turf layout to work with those grades, ensuring proper drainage and a playable surface. Slope actually works in our favor—water moves off the green naturally without pooling.
