Veteran Owned — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Pine Lake's got something special—a tight-knit community built around that beautiful private lake, where neighbors actually know each other and take pride in their homes. If you're sitting on a backyard that could use a putting green, you're in good company. A lot of homeowners around the lake are tired of fighting the DeKalb clay, dealing with patchy grass that won't take hold, or spending weekends maintaining a lawn that just doesn't cooperate. That's where we come in. We're a veteran-owned operation, and we've been installing artificial turf putting greens throughout the Atlanta metro area for years—including plenty of projects right here in Pine Lake. The lake views, the mature trees, the neighborhood vibe—we know this area. And we know that a well-built putting green isn't just about having somewhere to practice your short game. It's about reclaiming your backyard, saving yourself hours of maintenance, and creating a gathering spot that actually works year-round. Whether you've got a compact lot near the beach or a larger property backing up to the woods, we can build you a putting green that fits your space and your lifestyle.
Pine Lake's landscape comes with its own quirks, and we account for them in every install. The DeKalb clay around here drains poorly—it's one of the reasons you see so many frustrated homeowners dealing with soggy spots and compacted soil. Artificial turf actually solves this problem beautifully. We install a proper base layer with drainage, so water moves through instead of pooling like it would with traditional sod. The tree canopy varies a lot depending on where your lot sits. Properties closer to the lake tend to have mature oaks and pines that create dappled shade, while some lots get more direct afternoon sun. Our turf performs in both conditions, but we'll assess your specific microclimate during the site visit. Most Pine Lake lots are compact to mid-sized, which is perfect for a putting green—you don't need acreage to have a functional short game practice area. We also make sure everything fits within the Pine Lake community aesthetic. Your neighbors aren't looking at neon-green astroturf; they're looking at a natural-looking green that enhances the property. Installation takes a few days typically, and we handle all the base prep ourselves, so you don't have to wrestle with the clay.
Absolutely. The clay is actually one of the biggest reasons to install artificial turf here. We excavate to proper depth, install a drainage base layer, and lay the turf on top. Water moves through instead of sitting on the clay like it does with natural grass. Your putting green stays playable even after heavy rain, which is a huge advantage in DeKalb County.
We can get pretty close to the water, but we follow Pine Lake community guidelines and any setback requirements. During your consultation, we'll walk your property and confirm exactly where we can build. Most homeowners find they've got plenty of usable space without running into restrictions.
Not in the way it does natural grass. Our turf doesn't need sunlight to stay green and playable. If your lot has mature oaks creating partial shade, that's actually a bonus—cooler surface in summer, and the aesthetic works beautifully with Pine Lake's wooded character. Full shade would be the only real limitation, but that's rare here.
Typical timeline is 2-3 days depending on lot size and base prep complexity. DeKalb clay does require good drainage infrastructure, but we handle all of that. You'll usually be putting by the end of the week. We're based about 30 minutes away, so scheduling is straightforward.
