Who it is for

A short game for every age

  • The everyday golfer

    Ten minutes of putting practice without driving to the club.

  • The whole family

    A backyard game grandparents and kids can play together.

  • Smaller yards

    A green can fit beside a pool or in a side yard where lawn games will not.

  • Turf projects

    Built inside a turf lawn so the green blends into the yard.

How we build a green

The roll of the ball comes from the base, not just the turf. Contours are shaped and compacted into the base before the putting surface goes down.

Nicholas F. Putting green · Verified Thumbtack review, May 2025
How big should my green be?

It depends on the space and how you will use it. We stake out the shape with you on site so you can see it in the yard before anything is priced.

Can you add slopes and breaks?

Yes. Contours are built into the base before the turf goes down. Tell us how challenging you want it, and we will shape it to match.

How do I maintain it?

Keep leaves and debris off, brush it now and then, and top up the sand infill over time if it thins. The care guide we leave covers it.

What warranty comes with a green?

Putting turf carries its own manufacturer warranty, which can differ from lawn turf. We list the exact term on your proposal, along with our five-year workmanship warranty.
