Rooftop Deck — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Temple's got that small-town charm, and a lot of folks here are thinking about ways to make their outdoor spaces work harder—especially on rooftop decks where traditional grass just doesn't cut it. We've installed plenty of putting greens across Carroll County, and we've noticed that homeowners in Temple are looking for ways to turn underused deck space into something they'll actually enjoy year-round. A rooftop putting green does exactly that. You get a low-maintenance surface that handles Georgia's humidity without turning into a mud pit, it stays playable through the hot summers and mild winters we get out here, and honestly, it beats staring at bare decking. The folks we've worked with around Temple Downtown and throughout the area appreciate that artificial turf doesn't demand the constant upkeep that real grass does—no watering during dry spells, no dealing with the clay soil underneath that makes natural lawns such a headache. Whether you're thinking about a full 9-hole setup or just a practice green to sharpen your short game, we can design something that fits your deck's size and load capacity. It's the kind of upgrade that pays dividends in how you actually spend your time at home.
Temple sits on typical Carroll County clay, which is honestly one of the reasons artificial turf makes so much sense for a rooftop deck. That heavy clay drains poorly and compacts easily, so if you were thinking about real grass up there, you'd be fighting an uphill battle. The good news is that artificial turf completely sidesteps that problem. Our putting greens are built with proper base layers that handle water drainage on their own, independent of whatever soil conditions exist below. Your rooftop gets solid sun exposure most of the day—something we pay attention to when we're planning layout and cushioning thickness. The rural character of Temple means most decks we install are on homes with decent space, which gives us room to work with realistic green sizes and proper slope for ball roll. We always account for how UV-intense Georgia summers can be; our turf materials are rated for that kind of exposure without fading or deteriorating. Wind can be a factor on rooftops, so we make sure backing and seaming are bulletproof. The good news is that once it's installed, you're not fighting clay runoff, seasonal flooding issues, or the mold and mildew problems that plague natural grass in humid climates. Carroll County's weather pattern—hot, humid summers with decent rainfall—would keep a natural putting green soggy and patchy. Artificial turf thrives in those exact conditions.
Absolutely. The main thing we check is whether your deck can handle the weight—artificial turf systems weigh around 15 pounds per square yard once they're installed with proper base materials. Most residential decks built to code handle that fine, but we always do a structural assessment first. We've done rooftop installations all over Carroll County, including some tricky setups. It's absolutely doable in Temple.
Not with proper installation. We use a base layer system specifically designed for rooftop applications that sheds water quickly, so it doesn't sit. The turf itself is engineered to drain fast too. Rain just moves through and off your deck the same way it would with any other surface. We've never had drainage issues on any of our rooftop greens in the area.
Our turf is rated for intense UV and heat. Georgia summers are brutal, but the materials we use are designed specifically for that climate. They won't fade, crack, or degrade from sun exposure. We also size the backing and infill to handle thermal expansion, so you won't see shifting or buckling even on the hottest Temple days.
We handle the complete project. That includes assessing your deck's structure, preparing the surface, installing base layers, and laying the turf. If your deck needs reinforcement or repairs beforehand, we can coordinate that or recommend contractors we've worked with in Carroll County. It's a turnkey service.
