How To Install — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
A lot of homeowners in Mableton ask us the same thing: "Can I actually have a decent putting green in my backyard?" The answer is absolutely yes—and honestly, it's one of the smartest investments you can make if you love golf but don't have time to hit the range every weekend. Whether you're in Heritage Park or closer to the Silver Comet Trail area, we've installed dozens of putting greens across Cobb County, and Mableton's suburban yards are perfect for this kind of project. The thing about a backyard putting green is that it transforms your outdoor space into something you'll actually use year-round. No more driving 20 minutes to a practice facility. Instead, you've got a tournament-quality surface right there next to your patio. We handle everything from the ground prep (which matters a lot in South Cobb clay) to the final rolling and flagstick installation. Most homeowners are surprised by how natural it looks once it's in, and even more surprised by how much their game improves with daily practice. If you've been thinking about this for a while, now's a great time to get started.
Mableton sits on South Cobb clay, which is dense and holds moisture pretty well—that's actually an advantage for putting greens because it provides stable drainage without being too sandy. What matters most is proper base preparation and slight grading to shed water away from your play surface. Most Mableton properties we work with have decent sun exposure, though you'll want to check your specific lot for shade patterns, especially if you're near mature oaks. Heritage Park and surrounding neighborhoods tend to have varied lot sizes, so we scale the green to fit your space—some folks go with 300 square feet for a compact practice area, while others carve out 600+ for multiple holes. Your HOA guidelines (common in this area) typically approve artificial greens without issue, but we always verify before you commit. The red clay here can compact over time, so we install a proper crushed stone base layer before the turf goes down. This prevents settling and keeps your putt lines true for years. Summer heat in Georgia means you'll want UV-protected turf material—ours is rated for full sun and won't fade or degrade. Drainage is critical in Mableton's transitional suburban environment where runoff can be unpredictable, so we slope toward perimeter drains that keep water moving away from the green itself.
Most Mableton installations take 3–5 days from start to finish, depending on green size and site conditions. We're only 18 minutes from the Heritage Park area, so we can schedule efficiently. The actual groundwork (removing old sod, grading, laying base) takes 1–2 days. Turf installation and rolling typically happens the next day, then curing and final adjustments round it out. You'll be ready to putt by day five at the latest.
Yes, absolutely. South Cobb clay is actually workable for putting greens because it's dense and stable. We build drainage layers underneath that prevent pooling—water sheds to perimeter drains, not into your turf. The clay base keeps everything level and prevents settling. After heavy Mableton rain, your green will be playable within hours.
Basic maintenance keeps it pristine: light brushing weekly to stand up the nap, occasional raking to remove debris (especially in fall around Heritage Park), and light watering during dry stretches. You don't need fertilizer or pesticides like natural grass. Most Mableton homeowners spend 10–15 minutes monthly on upkeep. We include a maintenance guide with your installation.
Absolutely. Slope actually works in your favor for drainage. We grade the green to create realistic break lines and ensure water naturally moves away. If your Heritage Park or Mableton property slopes significantly, we can use that to build more interesting hole designs. Minor grading adjustments are included in every installation.
