Vs Concrete — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
A putting green in your Snellville backyard isn't just a nice-to-have—it's a legitimate game-changer for homeowners who want to practice their short game without the drive to East Lake or heading down to Briscoe Park every weekend. Snellville's established neighborhoods, especially around the Towne Center area and South Gwinnett, have yards that are perfect candidates for this kind of upgrade. The thing is, your lawn's going to see real use if you install one. You'll actually use it. Unlike concrete, which cracks in our Georgia heat cycles and becomes slick when it rains, artificial turf designed for putting greens gives you a consistent playing surface year-round. No mud, no bare patches come July, no worrying about whether your neighbors' view from The Towne Green is compromised by dead grass. We've been installing these systems across Gwinnett County for years, and the homeowners who go the artificial route never regret it. They regret waiting so long. Your family gets entertainment value, your property gets a tangible upgrade, and you get better at golf.
Snellville sits on that classic Gwinnett County clay base, which means drainage is something you actually have to think about. When we're building a putting green here, we're not just laying turf on top of existing soil—we're engineering a system that handles the rainfall and humidity this area gets. The clay wants to hold water, and that works against you if you're trying to maintain firm putting surfaces. A proper installation includes a gravel base and perforated drainage layer that accounts for those heavy spring and summer storms we see roll through South Gwinnett. Sun exposure varies wildly depending on whether you're in a tree-heavy lot near Briscoe Park's vicinity or in one of the newer-developed sections. Some yards in the 30039 area get brutal afternoon western exposure, which actually helps turf dry faster but can stress certain varieties during peak summer. Lot sizes in established Snellville neighborhoods tend to be anywhere from a quarter-acre to three-quarters of an acre, giving most homeowners plenty of room for a quality 300–600 square foot putting green without compromising the rest of their landscape. HOA rules in some South Gwinnett communities do restrict artificial turf, so checking your CC&Rs upfront saves everyone headaches later.
Absolutely. Our systems are rated for this exact climate. Gwinnett County summers are brutal, but modern synthetic turf for putting greens is UV-stabilized and designed to handle temperature swings without fading or degrading. The real enemy here is standing water after heavy rain, which is why the drainage base we install beneath the turf is non-negotiable. That clay soil under your Snellville yard needs help moving water, and we build for it.
Upfront, concrete might look cheaper. But concrete cracks in freeze-thaw cycles—and yes, Georgia gets those. It becomes slippery in rain and algae-prone in shade. A quality artificial putting green costs more initially but lasts 10+ years with virtually zero maintenance, no patching, no resurfacing. Concrete will need repair within 3–5 years in our climate.
Most of our Snellville installations run between 300 and 600 square feet, which gives you room for multiple pin placements and realistic short-game practice. You don't need a massive lot. Even homes in the Towne Center area with standard quarter-acre yards have plenty of room. We'll assess your specific layout and sun patterns during the site visit.
Some South Gwinnett communities restrict artificial turf outright; others allow it for specific purposes like golf greens. Check your CC&Rs first. We can help you navigate the approval process if needed, but it's a conversation worth having before you commit. Most HOAs see putting greens as an asset, not a violation.
