So what makes our putting greens stand out from the competition? It’s all about the feel. We make sure to help you choose the right product to suit your needs, from practicing chipping to putting or a mix of techniques. We use specialised synthetic turf designed with greens in mind, so you can count on realistic ball roll and break and a soft surface to work on. 

Whether you’re looking for a flat design with a few different hole placements to choose from or some creative undulation in your game to challenge your skills, we can create the putting green you’re looking for. Our products meet the standards of professional golfers and are great for anything from a backyard game to more competitive commercial installations. 

There’s no one size fits all answer to this because there’s no single way to build a putting green. Everyone’s needs, space constraints, and design ideas tally up to create a unique experience, every time. Plus, it will also depend on the complexity of the installation. Whether you’re looking for some small hills, bunkers, or just a flat green to work on your putting game, each of these requires their own level of precision to get done right. 

Synthetic turf designed especially for golf grass can run, on average, between $100-150 /m2 per square metre. For a green sized 75m2, you’re looking at a rough cost of $9,500 including profill sand, installation, and accessories. If you’re interested in something larger to practice your chip shots and that includes a bunker, you’re looking at costs that are closer to $20,000.

✔️ Convenience and ease of use

✔️ Low maintenance effort

✔️ Increased home value

✔️ Fully customisable options

✔️ Time and money savings

Again, that might depend largely on what size you choose to have installed in the first place. Complexity can add time to any project, putting greens not excluded.

That said, normal construction times can take anywhere from 2-3 days. This includes leveling the surface (or creating undulations as needed), adding borders, laying the underlayment, installing the turf, adding the profill sand, and finalising any accessories including cups and flag pins

There are a lot of different steps involved in installing a putting green as you can see from the above list. However, it is possible for you to attempt to install your own if you are feeling ambitious. Remember that preparation of the surface area is key not just for a smooth putting experience but also for proper drainage in the rest of your garden. If you aren’t sure how to manage this, you might prefer to go with a professional installer. 

Installation also requires a number of steps to ensure that the green itself is in place properly. Some DIY kits may come with plastic sheeting that you can affix the turf to, but these systems tend to be unwieldy and degrade over time. You’ll want to be sure to clear the area of all grass and dirt, create a level base, and then follow any instructions you receive from your turf provider in order to ensure a proper install. 

Adding a putting green to your garden can enliven the space and add value to your home, to boot. What’s more, you’ll have a professional area to practice without the commute and fees associated with heading to the local course. 

Of course, you’ll want to have your putting green installed correctly, and there’s no one better at this on the Gold Coast, Brisbane and surrounds than Surface Pro Group. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience working with synthetic turf of all types, including golf grass, and will work with you to create the green of your dreams. 

We start every project with a dedicated project manager and a free, zero obligation quote so you can get a sense of how much your putting green will cost and the time it will take to bring it to life. We also keep every project on budget as well as on time (as long as Mother Nature cooperates). For your very own quote, just call us on 1300 521 612 today!

When installed properly and professionally, you can expect your artificial turf to last a minimum of 10-15 years. While most manufacturers will only provide warranties between 7-12 years from installation, you can expect to get a long life out of your green especially if you take great care of it. 

One of the great things about synthetic turf is that you have little to no maintenance to worry about once it’s installed. Rinsing your green with the gentle flow from a garden hose or using a leaf blower is one way to keep it clear of debris and any other build up that might find its way onto the surface. For edging grass and longer turf, you may want to brush the grasses against the grain to cut down on the visibility of traffic marks like footprints and divots. 

Again, if it’s installed properly, one of the steps can be to include a weed barrier that separates the ground and the turf from one another. Some underlayments already include this element. In either case, you should not have to worry about weeds popping up in the middle of your putting green. 

Not at all. Artificial turf is made of materials that have UV protection built into them so that they will be fade resistant. That means your green should stay green for years to come!
