Backyard putting greens shaped to the yard and set on a compacted base, built alongside the patio and hardscape around them.

Putting Greens in Cumming, GA

A well-built backyard putting green gives you a place to practice your short game, entertain friends and enjoy your yard year-round, all without the upkeep of natural turf. At Georgia Pond & Waterfall, we design and install custom putting greens in Cumming, GA that are tailored to your specific needs, your property's layout and the way you actually want to use your outdoor space. From a simple two-hole green to a multi-tier layout with breaks, fringe and chipping areas, we build it to look great and perform the same way every time you step on it.

  • We clean up and check the work. Every project ends with a thorough cleanup and a final inspection, so your new green is ready to play on and the surrounding yard is left tidy and in order.
  • Local knowledge. We understand the soil, drainage patterns and seasonal conditions of properties in Cumming, GA, which lets us build greens that drain well and hold up to our local weather.

Our Putting Greens process

We keep the process straightforward so you always know what stage your project is in and what comes next.

  1. Consultation and site review. We visit your property, talk through how you want to use the green, and look at the available space, sun exposure and existing grading.
  2. Custom design. We lay out the shape, size, hole placement, slopes and breaks, and recommend any added features like chipping zones or fringe. You approve the design before we order materials.
  3. Detailed estimate. You receive a clear quote outlining the scope, timeline and cost so there are no surprises once we start.
  4. Site preparation. We excavate the area, build a stable sub-base and set proper grading so the surface stays level and drains correctly through heavy rain.
  5. Installation. We install the drainage layer, base material and synthetic turf, cut and seam the surface, set the cups, and add infill for a true, consistent roll.
  6. Final inspection and cleanup. We walk the finished green with you, confirm everything meets our standards, and leave the site clean and ready to play.

Because every property is different, we adjust this process to fit your yard. If your space has drainage challenges, slope issues or needs to tie into existing hardscapes like a patio, retaining wall or fire pit, we can plan around all of it and coordinate the work so the finished area looks like it was designed together from the beginning.

A quality putting green is more than a patch of synthetic turf. The base and drainage work beneath the surface are what keep the green playing true for years, which is why we take the groundwork as seriously as the finished look. We use proven techniques and quality materials to deliver a surface that is functional, visually appealing and built to last, whether you want a putting surface that challenges your game or a simple, low-maintenance feature your whole family can enjoy.

Our putting greens also pair naturally with the water features and hardscaping we build. If you are already thinking about a backyard that includes a pond, a waterfall or a stone patio, a putting green can be worked into the same overall plan so your outdoor space feels cohesive and intentional. We are happy to talk through options and help you prioritize the features that matter most to you and your budget.

Call (925) 695-4629
Do you install artificial putting greens in Cumming, GA?

Yes. Georgia Pond & Waterfall designs and builds synthetic putting greens as part of our hardscaping work in Cumming and across North Atlanta. We handle the grading, base preparation, turf installation and cup placement so you get a smooth, playable surface tailored to your specific needs.

Can a putting green be combined with a pond, waterfall or patio?

Absolutely. We often integrate a putting green into a larger backyard layout alongside water features, walkways, retaining walls and fire pits. Because we handle the full landscape, we can position the green so it fits naturally with the surrounding hardscapes and drainage.

How do you handle drainage so the green stays usable after rain?

A proper base is the key to a green that drains well and stays level. We build a compacted sub-base with the right slope and permeable layers so water moves off the surface quickly, which is especially important given North Atlanta storm runoff. Every install ends with a final inspection to confirm it drains and plays as intended.

How much does a putting green cost to install?

Cost depends on the size, shape, number of holes and site conditions of your yard. Before any work starts, Georgia Pond & Waterfall provides a detailed, transparent estimate covering the scope, timeline and cost with no hidden fees, so you know exactly what to expect.

How much maintenance does an artificial putting green require?

Synthetic greens need far less upkeep than natural grass, with no mowing, watering or fertilizing. Occasional brushing and clearing of leaves and debris keeps the surface true. We can walk you through simple care steps when we complete the project and clean up the work area.

    We recently had the pleasure of working with Georgia Pond and Waterfall to restore and redesign the pond in our backyard, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. From the very beginning, Nico stood out for his incredible attention to detail and his genuine willingness to listen. He took the time to understand our concerns—especially the ongoing rain runoff issues—and worked closely with us to design a solution that was both practical and beautiful. The runoff problem that had been frustrating us for so long has now been completely addressed, and the new layout works seamlessly with our yard. The transformation itself is stunning. What was once an existing pond in need of help is now a gorgeous, functional space with a beautifully designed waterfall that we enjoy every day. Nico and his team worked hard throughout the entire process, and it showed in both the craftsmanship and the care they put into every aspect of the project. What truly set this experience apart, though, was the follow-up. Nico didn’t just finish the job and move on—he checked in with us afterward to make sure everything was working properly and that we were completely satisfied. That level of professionalism and commitment is rare. If you’re looking for a company that combines expertise, creativity, and outstanding customer care, we highly recommend Georgia Pond and Waterfall.

    Niko has passion for what he does and it shows in the work. Niko treats his rock scapes, ponds, and waterfalls like pieces of art. But they do more than just look good - they also work well! Niko's experience with waterfall design resulted in a structure which solved our leaking problems and still looks great. He rebuilt our 20-year-old waterfall using a fresh liner. Now it looks great and we don't lose water when we run it. Niko's attention to detail really sets him apart. He comes back and gets all the details right before he finishes a job. He spends time grouting and covering the structural parts of the cement and foam so everything looks natural. Niko also communicates well. We talked about his life before building waterfalls, and I think all his business experience helped make him such a good communicator. I always get updates on how things are going. I'm so glad we hired Georgia Pond and Waterfall to do our project.
