Cups where you want them, contour that makes a putt interesting, and a base that keeps the roll true through Hill Country summers.
A putting green is the one piece of synthetic turf where the surface has to perform, not just look right. Ball speed and roll come almost entirely from what is underneath: how the base is graded, how well it is compacted, and how the contour was shaped before anything green went down.
That is why a green is built differently from a lawn. Tighter pile, heavier compaction, cups set at the levels you actually want to putt from, and a longer fringe collar around the edge so the green reads like a green rather than a rectangle of turf.
Most of ours end up as part of a wider yard rather than on their own, tied into the patio, the gravel, and the planting so it looks like it belongs there.
A natural grass green in the Hill Country is not a realistic thing to keep. Between the heat, the water restrictions, and the mowing height a real green needs, it would be a full-time job and it still would not survive a bad summer.
Synthetic solves that, provided the base drains. Rain here arrives in a few heavy bursts, and a green that holds water will stay soft and putt badly long after the storm has passed. We build them across the towns we work in, from Bulverde to Canyon Lake.
We love our amazing backyard transformation! Tyler's team was very professional and the job was done right. Demo only took one day and the rest was finished in a record time for the work they have put in. Every step of the transformation was done right and there were no cutting corners. The putting green was beyond our expectations. Now we have our dream backyard!
Singer services is the best! We had no yard on Monday and the best yard on the street by Thursday! Tyler and Cory are great to deal with and the crew they had working with them seemed to be having fun every day. I had a million questions and they were very patient with me. Thank you for our beautiful yard!
Tyler and his team did amazing work! Customer service is a top priority. We explained what our needs were, Tyler had a lot of great ideas and he and his team did the rest. We are so happy with the finished product. Even better it took less time then they initially thought too.
Singer Services did an excellent job with our landscaping! Professional, on time, great crew, reasonable pricing, creative, and just an overall wonderful company. I highly recommend them for any landscaping needs you may have!
A few of them. There are more on the reviews page.
See all reviews on GoogleHow many cups, where you want to putt from, and how much room the fringe needs. This is worth getting right on the ground rather than on paper.
Dig out, then build and grade the base to the contour you want, including the breaks that make a putt worth taking.
Base compacted in layers, then putting turf laid tight over it with the cups set to the finished level.
A longer fringe turf around the edge, then the surrounds tied into whatever the green meets, stone, gravel, or lawn.
Less than people expect. What matters more than total size is the run you want to putt from and leaving enough space around the edge for a fringe, so the green does not stop dead at a fence.
Yes, and it is what makes a green worth using more than twice. The contour is shaped into the base before the surface goes on, so we talk through how much break you actually want.
Shorter, denser pile, a more heavily compacted and precisely graded base, and cups set to the finished level. Lawn turf laid flat will look like a green and will not putt like one.
Keeping it clear of leaves and debris, and occasionally brushing the surface in high-traffic lines. No watering, mowing, or feeding.
Usually. The main things we look at are drainage, how much shade it sits in, and whether getting excavation equipment into the space is realistic.
