Small Yard — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Union City's neighborhoods—especially around Shannon and Flat Shoals—have some of the tightest residential lots in the South Fulton area. Your backyard might be the size of a postage stamp, but that doesn't mean you can't have a beautiful outdoor space. A putting green transforms even a small yard into something you'll actually use year-round. No more paying membership fees to practice your short game three miles away. No more waiting for the grass to recover from foot traffic. No more fighting Georgia's clay soil and humidity just to keep a tiny patch looking presentable. We've installed dozens of putting greens in Union City's compact yards, and honestly, the smaller lots often become our customers' favorite projects. You get premium quality synthetic turf that drains fast, holds its color through summer heat, and plays true. That means you're chipping and putting in your own space, improving your game, and enjoying your yard without the endless maintenance headaches that come with natural grass in this region.
Union City sits on that heavy South Fulton clay, which is beautiful for development but tough for maintaining a natural putting surface. Clay holds water—especially during our wet springs—and your grass either gets waterlogged or cracks in the summer heat. Synthetic turf eliminates that problem entirely. Most Union City yards we work on fall into the small-to-medium range, which means drainage and base prep are critical. We're meticulous about slope and sub-base grading because standing water on artificial turf is a non-issue if you install it right. The Shannon and Flat Shoals areas get decent sun exposure, but many lots have mature trees creating dappled shade. That's actually ideal for a putting green—it stays cooler and you're not fighting glare. HOA rules in Union City typically embrace well-maintained landscape improvements, and a putting green reads as premium, not gimmicky. One thing locals should know: our 35-minute drive from HQ means we know your soil, your drainage challenges, and the micro-climates in your specific neighborhood. That local knowledge matters during installation and ongoing care.
Clay absolutely requires proper base prep, but that's why we don't cut corners on sub-base. We install engineered drainage layers that sit above the clay and slope away from your house. Water moves through the turf quickly and drains down through the base system—no pooling, no swamp. Union City's clay actually works in your favor once the base is right; it's stable and won't shift like sandier soils.
We've done everything from 150 square feet to 400+ square feet. Most Union City homeowners with smaller lots go for 200–250 square feet—enough for two or three holes with realistic green shapes, chip zones, and bunker detail. Doesn't sound big, but it plays larger than you'd think and still leaves room for landscaping or seating areas.
Georgia summers are brutal, but modern synthetic turf is engineered for it. Union City gets full sun in most yards, and the turf handles 95-degree heat without issues. The real benefit? No watering, no brown patches, no summer dormancy. Your putting green looks identical in July as it does in April.
Same day, in most cases. Once we finish grading, install the base, lay the turf, and brush it in, you're good to chip and putt. No curing period, no waiting for grass to establish. In Union City, that means you're practicing your short game before dinner.
