Small Yard — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
McCollum's got that classic East Cobb feel—tree-lined streets, modest lots, and a community that takes pride in their yards. A lot of folks around here have mentioned wanting a backyard putting green, but the reality of maintaining one in this climate and soil type stops them cold. Between the clay base that sits under most McCollum properties and the sheer time commitment, most homeowners end up shelving the idea. That's where artificial turf changes the game. You get that smooth, consistent putting surface without fighting Georgia's humidity, without watering every other day, and without raking out dead spots when summer heat hits. We've installed putting greens for neighbors right here in the McCollum area—folks living near the airport corridor, families with compact backyards who wanted something beyond a typical lawn. The difference between a real grass putting green and a quality artificial one becomes obvious fast: yours plays true year-round, looks immaculate, and takes maybe five minutes a month to maintain. We're just 15 minutes away, so we know the soil conditions, the sun patterns, and exactly what works in this pocket of Cobb County.
McCollum sits on heavy East Cobb clay, which is both a blessing and a headache for traditional putting greens. That dense soil means drainage can be sluggish, especially during our wet springs, and it compacts easily under foot traffic. Real grass struggles with consistency here—you'll get soft spots, uneven settling, and surface irregularities that mess with your putt line. Artificial turf solves this completely. We install with proper base preparation that accounts for McCollum's clay foundation, creating a level, stable platform that won't shift or settle over time. Sun exposure varies significantly depending on whether your lot backs up toward the airport corridor or sits deeper in residential neighborhoods. Some yards here get blasted with afternoon sun; others have mature oaks providing afternoon shade. We size and position putting greens to match your specific light exposure—something that affects both playability and longevity. Most McCollum properties we work with have modest backyard space, which is perfect for a compact green. No need for full-size tournament dimensions; we design around what your lot actually offers. The artificial turf handles Georgia's humidity without the fungal issues that plague real greens in this region, and there's zero concern about winter dormancy affecting your game.
Absolutely. Clay actually works in our favor because it's stable and compacted. We excavate to the right depth, add our drainage base layer and leveling sand, then install the turf. The clay beneath keeps everything from shifting. We've done dozens of installations on similar East Cobb properties—your green will stay true and level year after year, even with clay underneath.
Not with proper installation. We slope the green slightly and use a perforated base that channels water into your existing yard drainage. McCollum's spring rains won't be an issue. We design around your lot's natural drainage patterns so water moves away from the playing surface, just like it should.
Most McCollum yards have room for a 300–500 square foot green, which gives you plenty of variety with multiple hole positions. We've installed greens in tight spaces near the airport area and in more spacious backyards. We'll measure your lot, factor in sun exposure and sight lines, and design something that fits perfectly without eating up your whole yard.
Premium turf holds color extremely well, even in full sun. We use UV-stabilized materials that won't yellow or bleach. McCollum summers are intense, but modern artificial greens are engineered for this climate. You'll see consistent color and playability for 10+ years with minimal maintenance.
