Infill Types — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
McDonough's putting greens have exploded in popularity—and honestly, it makes perfect sense. Between Eagle's Landing's manicured estates and the newer subdivisions popping up across Henry County, homeowners are discovering that a backyard putting green transforms how you use your outdoor space. We've been installing them throughout the area, and the response tells the real story: families are ditching the drive to the range and settling for something better—a practice area that's literally steps from the patio. The clay-heavy soil in this part of Henry County actually works in your favor during installation; it gives us a rock-solid base to build on. If you're serious about your short game or just want a conversation piece that actually performs, a custom putting green is the move. Our crews have done hundreds of these, and we're 45 minutes away—close enough to handle everything from the initial walkthrough to seasonal turf adjustments without the hassle.
Henry County clay is dense and compacted, which is genuinely helpful when we're prepping your putting green base. Unlike sandier soils you'll find elsewhere in Georgia, you won't fight drainage issues or shifting during heavy rains. That said, the rapid growth in residential areas around McDonough means yard sizes vary wildly—some homeowners in Kelleytown have sprawling properties perfect for 1,500+ square-foot greens, while others in newer subdivisions are working with tighter footprints. Sun exposure matters here too. A lot of McDonough homes get afternoon shade from mature oaks, which is actually ideal for turf longevity during Georgia's brutal summers. Check your HOA rules before installation—Eagle's Landing and similar communities sometimes have landscape guidelines, though most welcome putting greens as long as they're well-maintained. We'll walk you through the specifics during the site visit. One heads-up: the clay base means proper slope and drainage design is non-negotiable, but that's exactly where our experience pays off.
Silica sand is our go-to for this area—it handles Henry County's summer heat without compacting under foot traffic, and it drains fast when afternoon thunderstorms roll through. Some folks ask about crumb rubber infill, and it's solid, but in McDonough's climate, sand gives you truer roll speed and easier maintenance year-round. We'll talk through both options during the consultation.
Not at all—it's actually an advantage. The clay base in Henry County compacts naturally and holds everything stable. We'll still install proper drainage layers, but you won't deal with the shifting or settling that sandy-soil areas fight. Your green will stay level and playable for years.
Budget typically runs $3,500–$8,500 depending on size, turf grade, and infill type. A mid-range 400–600 square-foot green with quality turf and sand infill usually lands around $5,000–$6,500. We'll give you a detailed quote after measuring your space and checking site conditions.
Yes, but HOA approval varies. Some McDonough communities embrace putting greens as landscaping upgrades; others have specific requirements about borders or drainage. We'll help you navigate the approval process and design your green to meet local guidelines.
