This Week Install — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
A putting green in your Lithonia backyard is one of those projects that actually pays you back every single time you use it. We've installed dozens across DeKalb County—from the tree-lined lots near Downtown Lithonia to the larger properties out in the Stonecrest area—and the homeowners consistently tell us the same thing: they wish they'd done it sooner. The clay soil around here, especially with how close we are to that granite outcrop near Arabia Mountain, actually works in your favor. We know how to prep it right, and we can have your green playable within days, not weeks. Whether you're a weekend golfer who wants to practice short game at home or just looking to add something unique to your yard, we handle everything start to finish. We're based 35 minutes from your neighborhood, so we're not flying in from across the state—we know Lithonia yards, we know the weather patterns, and we know what holds up in our climate. This week, next week, whenever you're ready: let's build something that actually gets used.
Lithonia's soil profile is different from a lot of Georgia. You've got that dense clay base mixed with granite fragments, which means drainage matters more than most people think. We account for that during prep by creating proper sub-base layers so your putting surface doesn't puddle during our summer storms. The neighborhoods vary too—Downtown Lithonia tends to have older, tree-heavy lots with dappled shade, while the Stonecrest area often has more sun exposure. Both work fine for artificial turf, but we adjust our specifications based on light. HOA rules in the area are generally permissive around the Stonecrest side, though some of the older downtown neighborhoods have stricter guidelines. We always verify that before we start. Lot sizes range widely here, so we're comfortable building 200-square-foot greens in compact yards or larger 800+ square foot layouts if you've got the space. The heat reflection off our summer sun is real, so we spec cooling-technology turf rather than basic alternatives. Installation typically takes 2–3 days depending on ground conditions and any drainage work needed.
Absolutely. We use premium artificial turf engineered for Georgia's climate—it won't fade, won't melt, and actually stays cooler than budget alternatives. The clay base we work with around here actually helps with stability. Maintenance is minimal: rinse it occasionally and let it drain naturally. No watering, no chemicals needed.
We can absolutely schedule you this week. A typical putting green takes 2–3 days depending on ground prep and drainage needs. Since we're 35 minutes away in Lithonia, we coordinate fast. Once we finalize details, we'll give you exact dates and have your green ready to putt on within days.
DeKalb County doesn't typically require permits for residential backyard installations like putting greens—they're treated as landscaping, not structures. That said, some HOAs in Stonecrest or Downtown Lithonia neighborhoods have approval processes. We handle that conversation with you upfront to make sure there are zero surprises.
Great question, especially here. We install a engineered sub-base beneath the turf that channels water away from the green surface itself. Lithonia's granite-clay mix actually drains reasonably well if prepped correctly. We've never had drainage issues on any green we've installed in DeKalb County—the system works.
