What It Takes to Build a Backyard Putting Green That Actually Rolls True

A putting green is one of those backyard additions that gets used way more than people expect. A few putts with your morning coffee, the kids learning to chip, a round with friends when they're over. But there's a big difference between a green that performs and a roll-out mat that just looks the part.

The roll is everything

A real putting green has a consistent, true roll. That doesn't come from the turf alone. It comes from the base underneath, graded and compacted precisely so the ball tracks the way you read it. Cheap out on the base and you get a green that's bumpy, slow in spots, and fast in others. We take the time to get the base dead-on.

  • Precision-graded, compacted base for a true, consistent roll
  • Premium short-pile putting turf that holds its speed
  • Real cups and multiple pin positions so practice stays interesting
  • Contours and breaks designed around how you like to play
  • A contrasting fringe for chipping

Designed around you

We build every green to the space and the golfer. Want it flat and fast for pure stroke work? We can do that. Want rolling breaks so you can practice reading greens? We'll build the undulations in. Tight backyard or a big property out in Murrayville with room for a multi-cup green and a chipping area? Either works.

It drains and it lasts

This is the Fraser Valley, so it has to handle rain. A proper green drains through the base and is playable again fast after a wet day. And it needs almost no upkeep. No mowing, no rolling, no top-dressing. Just brush it off now and then and it stays in shape for years.
