Vs Gravel — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
McDonough's neighborhoods—Eagle's Landing, Kelleytown, and the areas around Heritage Park—are growing fast, and a lot of homeowners here are tired of dealing with gravel pit backyards. Gravel shifts, gets tracked into the house, requires constant raking, and honestly, it doesn't look great. A putting green gives you something completely different: a manicured, playable surface that stays put, looks polished year-round, and actually adds curb appeal to your home. We've installed artificial turf for putting greens across Henry County, and we understand the clay soil, the summer heat, and the way these newer subdivisions are laid out. The best part? You get that resort-quality feel without the maintenance nightmare of real grass or the mess of gravel. No watering, no fertilizing, no weeds creeping up. Just a beautiful, functional green that your family can use right now.
Henry County clay is dense and doesn't drain like sandy soil—that's why gravel has been a popular shortcut for a lot of McDonough homeowners. But clay actually works in your favor when you're installing artificial turf for a putting green. We prep the base properly, and that clay becomes a stable foundation. The real consideration is drainage. Our crews dig out the existing gravel, amend the soil with a perforated base layer, and then install the turf so water flows away from your home's foundation and toward your yard's natural slope. Summer sun is intense here, so we use turf materials rated for Georgia heat—they won't fade or degrade like cheaper alternatives. If you're in one of the Eagle's Landing or Kelleytown subdivisions, check your HOA guidelines; most welcome artificial turf, especially when it's maintained to a high standard. Lot sizes vary across McDonough, but even a compact backyard can become a functional putting green. We've sized greens for 500 square feet all the way up to full practice spaces. The key is working with your existing landscape and the trees that are already shading parts of your yard.
Yes. Clay is actually stable for turf installation once we create the right base. We remove gravel, install a perforated drainage layer, and slope the green so water moves away from your foundation and yard. It's the same system we use across Henry County—clay becomes an asset when it's prepped correctly.
Most McDonough HOAs permit high-quality artificial turf, especially for putting greens that are maintained to landscape standards. We recommend checking your specific community guidelines before ordering, but we've worked with multiple neighborhoods in the area without issues.
Depends on size and prep work. A typical residential putting green takes 2–4 days from gravel removal through final turf installation. Larger projects or complicated drainage needs may extend that. We'll give you a solid timeline during your site visit.
Absolutely. We remove the gravel, level the base, install drainage infrastructure, and lay the turf. Your landscaping, trees, and yard structure stay intact. It's a focused replacement—much simpler than a full backyard renovation.
