A backyard putting green turns dead grass or unused side yard into something you'll actually use. Anthem Artificial Turf builds custom greens sized to fit standard planned-community lots, with contoured sub-bases for real break and roll instead of a flat patch of green turf.
Most Anthem backyards run smaller and squarer than custom-home lots elsewhere in the Valley, so green layout matters. We design around patios, block walls, and existing landscaping rather than forcing a generic shape into the space.

Materials and Methods for Putting Green Installation

Short-pile putting turf

FAQs
Putting Green Installation FAQs
How much does a backyard putting green cost in Anthem?
Pricing depends mostly on square footage and how many cups or breaks you want built in. Most backyard greens land in a mid-range price once contouring and fringe turf are factored in. A free estimate gets you an exact number.
Can a putting green have real breaks like a golf course?
Yes. The sub-base is shaped before turf goes down, so slopes and breaks are built into the ground itself, not just the look of the turf.
Does HOA approval apply to a putting green?
In Anthem, most putting greens still fall under HOA design guidelines, especially for front-facing or highly visible yards. Check with your HOA before signing a contract.
How long does a putting green hold up in Arizona heat?
Short-pile putting turf is UV-treated and holds its color and bounce performance for years with occasional brushing and infill top-off.
Can I add more cups later?
Additional cup locations can be added during the original install or as a follow-up project.
Is a putting green a good DIY project?
Contouring for consistent ball roll is hard to get right without experience. Flat decorative turf is more DIY-friendly than a functional green.
