Vs Concrete — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Vinings is a stunning community, and we're right here in your backyard—just 20 minutes away when you decide it's time to upgrade your outdoor space. If you've been thinking about a putting green but worried about the clay soil that comes with living on the Cobb-Fulton border, or concerned about fitting one into those tighter luxury lots around Paces or Vinings Main, you're not alone. Concrete backyards are common in this area, and frankly, they're boring. Here's the thing: artificial turf doesn't care about your soil conditions or lot size the way natural grass does. We've installed putting greens on top of concrete, compacted clay, and everything in between. The difference between concrete and a real putting surface is night and day—literally and functionally. Concrete cracks, gets hot, and limits what you can actually do with the space. A putting green gives you a year-round practice area that looks like it belongs in Vinings' landscape culture, handles Georgia's humidity without becoming a mud pit, and plays beautifully in morning shade or afternoon sun. Whether you're looking to entertain by the Vinings Jubilee area or create a quiet retreat in your backyard, we'll design and install a green that works with your property, not against it.
Vinings sits in that tricky zone where clay soil dominates, especially as you move toward the Cobb County side. This matters for putting greens because natural grass struggles with drainage and compaction here—but artificial turf thrives precisely where concrete and poor drainage would otherwise be your only options. The clay actually works in your favor during installation; it's dense enough to provide a stable base without excessive settling. Most Vinings lots are on the smaller side, especially in the luxury neighborhoods around Paces and Vinings Main. That's perfect for a putting green. You don't need an acre; 300–600 square feet gives you a functional short game practice area that fits naturally into the landscape. Sun exposure varies depending on mature trees in your yard and proximity to Cochran Shoals' canopy. We assess shade patterns in person because what looks shady in winter might be different in summer. Our installation process accounts for Vinings' climate: we build proper subsurface drainage beneath the turf so Georgia's humidity and occasional heavy rain don't create soft spots or algae issues. The turf we use is engineered for our exact region—it handles heat without melting, drains quickly, and stays true underfoot year-round.
Concrete is hard, gets hot in Georgia sun, and cracks over time. A putting green gives you a legitimate practice surface with natural feel and roll, plus it's softer underfoot and safer if you have kids or pets. Vinings' clay soil would make maintaining natural grass difficult, so artificial turf skips that headache entirely while looking far better than concrete. It's an investment in actual functionality.
Clay is dense and doesn't drain naturally, so we don't install directly on it. We build a proper drainage foundation underneath—crushed stone, perforated lines, the right slope. This prevents water pooling and keeps your green playable after Cobb County rain. The clay actually provides excellent stability for the base layer, so installation is straightforward.
Absolutely. Most Vinings properties, especially around Paces and Vinings Main, are compact, and that's ideal for a putting green. We design 300–600 square foot greens that integrate seamlessly into tight spaces. Smaller lots often have better mature landscaping too, which frames a green beautifully.
Modern turf performs well in partial shade, which is good for Vinings since mature trees are part of the neighborhood character. We evaluate your specific yard during a consultation—afternoon shade from Cochran Shoals proximity or mature oaks works fine. We'll recommend turf blends suited to your actual light conditions.
