Pricing Guide — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
A putting green in your Marietta backyard changes everything about how you spend your weekends. Whether you're in East Cobb near the Marietta Square or out toward Whitlock, having a short-game practice space steps from your back door means you're actually using it—not scrolling through golf videos on your phone. We've installed dozens of these throughout Cobb County, and the homeowners we work with consistently tell us the same thing: it's the best addition they've made to their property. The fact that you can practice your stroke while the kids play, while you're waiting for dinner to cook, or during those Georgia summer evenings when the light stays late—that's the real value. A quality putting green isn't just turf rolled out on dirt. It's precision grading, proper drainage (especially important in our red clay), and materials that hold up to Georgia heat and humidity. Since we're just 12 minutes from most Marietta neighborhoods, we understand exactly what works here and what doesn't. We'll walk you through pricing, show you how other yards in your area look after installation, and answer the questions that actually matter to homeowners deciding whether this makes sense for their family.
Marietta's red clay is beautiful for growing oak trees—the mature canopy throughout neighborhoods like West Cobb is one of the best parts of living here. But that same clay and shade pattern changes how we approach putting green installation. First, drainage. Our clay holds water, so proper base preparation is non-negotiable. We spend time on grading and subsurface work that you won't see but absolutely will appreciate during heavy rain or spring melt. Second, shade. Those towering oaks create dappled light that's gorgeous but inconsistent. We often recommend turf varieties that perform better in partial shade if your green sits under that canopy. Direct sun exposure across the Marietta area is actually your advantage—it means faster play and better ball roll. Lot sizes vary significantly: East Cobb tends toward larger estates where we can build regulation-sized greens, while Whitlock and central Marietta often work with modest backyard space. We design accordingly. Finally, HOA rules matter in many Marietta neighborhoods. Some have restrictions on turf color or installation approach. We handle those conversations upfront so there are no surprises after we're done. Our experience with Cobb County's specific soil and climate means we're not guessing—we know what's worked for hundreds of neighbors already living exactly where you do.
Small backyard greens (200–400 sq ft) typically run $2,500–$4,500. Mid-size greens (400–800 sq ft) land in the $4,500–$8,000 range. Premium installations with regulation contours and elevated surrounds can exceed $10,000. Marietta yard sizes and existing landscape conditions affect final pricing. We provide detailed quotes after a site visit.
Not at all—we factor it in. If your green sits under significant canopy like many West Cobb properties, we select turf varieties bred for partial shade. We also recommend occasional clearing of low branches to maximize available light. Our experience with Cobb County's tree coverage means we design for the light you actually have, not the light you wish you had.
Modern turf handles Georgia summers easily. The real issue is our red clay's drainage. Poor base prep causes turf to stay wet, which creates issues. We prioritize grading and subsurface drainage specifically because of Marietta's soil. Properly installed, your green will outlast the warranty.
Usually yes, but HOAs vary by neighborhood. Some have restrictions on turf color, installation timing, or sightline placement. We've navigated Marietta HOAs before. We'll review your specific rules and handle communication with your board if needed before we break ground.
