New Construction Home — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Sandy Springs North is booming with new construction, and your backyard is probably one of the last pieces of the puzzle. A putting green sounds like a luxury upgrade—and honestly, it kind of is—but here's the thing: in the Abernathy corridor and around the Dunwoody border, we're seeing homeowners choose artificial turf greens because they work. They work in our North Fulton clay soil, they work when you've got a quarter-acre lot that needs to earn its keep, and they work year-round without the constant maintenance that regular grass demands. We've been installing these in the area for years, and the newer the home, the more sense it makes to build in a putting green from day one. No regrading later, no fighting your builder's landscaping choices. You get exactly what you want, and it actually holds up in our humidity and clay conditions. Whether you're in 30350 or 30328, we're familiar with what works here—and what doesn't.
North Fulton clay is dense and compacted, especially in new construction where heavy equipment has been running. That's actually good news for putting green installation—your base won't shift or settle unevenly like it would in sandier soil. What you do need to account for is drainage. Clay holds water, so we always install a proper sub-base with perforated drainage layers underneath your turf. Sun exposure varies wildly depending on where you are relative to Morgan Falls and the tree canopy along the Dunwoody border. Some lots are shaded most of the day; others get brutal afternoon sun. We assess your specific microclimate during the site visit because that affects which turf variety we recommend and how it'll perform. Most new builds in Sandy Springs North have yards between a quarter and half-acre. For a putting green, you're typically looking at 500–1,500 square feet depending on what you want. HOA rules are usually flexible about artificial turf in backyards, but we always check first. The good news: installation in new construction is cleaner because we're not removing existing landscaping.
Absolutely. Clay is stable and won't settle or shift under your turf like looser soil can. The key is drainage—we install a engineered base with perforated layers so water moves through instead of pooling. That's how we keep your green playable year-round in our humid climate without soggy spots or algae.
Most putting green installations take 2–4 days depending on size and base prep. In new construction, we often have less earthwork to do since the yard is typically bare. We're 28 minutes from our HQ, so we can schedule crews efficiently throughout the Abernathy and Dunwoody-border areas.
Most HOAs in Sandy Springs North allow artificial turf in backyards without issue, especially in new construction communities. We always verify before you sign on so there are no surprises. Front yards and visible areas have stricter rules, but your green is typically out of sight.
Properties near the Dunwoody border and Morgan Falls area can have significant tree shade, while others get afternoon heat. We evaluate your lot's sun pattern and recommend turf height and fiber type accordingly. Even shaded greens perform well with the right material and maintenance routine.
