Houston Artificial Turf and Putting Greens Done Differently
A good putting green or turf lawn is more than looks. It is an investment. The American Society of Landscape Architects says professional landscaping can boost home value by 15% to 20%. We start with a site review of the terrain, drainage, and existing features. Then we plan a layout that fits your yard. No cookie-cutter installs, just practical work from our Houston-based crew.
We run each project in-house, from planning to install. That keeps communication clear, cuts delays, and gives you a result you can stand behind. You end up with synthetic grass or a putting green that holds up to Houston heat and rain, fits how you live, and adds value to your property.
"HLI put in a backyard putting green for us in two weeks, and it still looks brand new after a full Houston summer."
- Sarah T., Houston homeownerOur Steps
HLI's Artificial Turf and Putting Green Process
- 01
Initial Consultation
First we talk through your needs, goals, and budget. We look at your yard's layout, how you want to use the space, and whether you want a turf lawn, a putting green, or both. This shapes the right plan for your property.
- 02
Site Analysis & Design Development
We check soil, drainage, and sun exposure on site. Houston's clay soil and heavy rain make drainage the key to turf that lasts. We use what we find to plan the base, slope, and layout, and we factor in local rules such as HOA guidelines.
- 03
Budgeting and Cost Estimation
Before any work starts, we give you a clear, itemized cost breakdown. You see the price per square foot and what each part of the job covers, so the project fits your budget with no surprises.
- 04
Installation and Final Walkthrough
Once the turf or green is installed, we walk the site with you. We show you how to care for the surface and answer your questions, so you know how to keep it looking sharp for years.
Our Artificial Turf and Putting Green Services
Artificial Turf Installation
We install durable synthetic grass for lawns, pet runs, play areas, and low-maintenance yards. Each artificial turf install includes a compacted base, a drainage layer, and tight seam work. The result is a clean, green lawn that looks great all year with no watering or mowing.
- Installed over a compacted base with a drainage system
- Great for lawns, play zones, side yards, and pet areas
- Comes in many turf heights, colors, and textures
Custom Putting Green Installation
We design and install backyard putting greens for homes and recreational spaces. Each green is shaped for a true roll and paired with fringe turf for chipping and short-game practice. Cup placement and layout are built around your yard and your game.
- Includes turf selection, cups, contours, and fringe
- Built for a realistic roll, bounce, and slope
- Fits any yard shape, size, or skill level
Base Preparation & Grading
A strong base is what makes turf and putting greens last. We excavate and build a compacted base with the right slope and drainage systems so water moves off the surface. This matters in Houston, where heavy rain and clay soil cause pooling, uneven spots, and shifting over time.
- Graded and compacted aggregate base
- Gives you a smooth, even surface that holds up for years
- Includes a drainage layer to stop water buildup
Putting Green Contouring & Shaping
We shape greens with breaks, undulations, and slopes for real short-game practice. We build these features during base prep so they last. Your green can include several breaks, drop-offs, or separate practice zones.
- Adds slopes, dips, and breaks to test your putting
- Reads like a real green for true ball movement
- Shaped during install to fit your yard and style
Fringe Turf & Landscape Integration
Fringe turf blends the green into the rest of the yard and gives you a buffer for chipping and approach shots. We can also work in plant beds, paver walkways, or boulders around the area for a finished look. The move from putting green to landscape stays clean and natural.
- Adds a turf fringe around the putting green edge
- Improves both the look and your short-game practice
- Pairs with landscaping, plant beds, or hardscapes
Infill & Surface Finish Options
Infill goes into synthetic turf to keep the blades upright and help it perform. We offer several infill types, such as silica sand, rubber, or specialty blends. We match the infill to how you use the turf, whether for play, pets, or putting.
- Adds structure, weight, and grip to turf
- Comes in sand, rubber, or pet-safe options
- Improves traction, ball roll, and turf life
Turf Repair & Replacement
If your current turf is worn, damaged, or dated, we handle partial repair or full replacement. We check the condition, reset the base layers when needed, and match or upgrade the turf type. This brings back both the look and the use of your space.
- Repair or replace worn, stained, or lifted turf sections
- Option to upgrade to newer, higher-performance turf
- Clean blending with existing turf and landscaping
