WB Rubber installs custom residential putting greens in backyards and patios across Texas. Custom contours, multiple hole configurations, fringe turf, and professional cup and flag placement. Practice your short game at home on a surface that performs like a real green.
Every residential putting green is built to the shape and contour you specify. Straight rectangles, organic kidney shapes, and multi-level greens are all options based on your site.
Single-hole practice greens up to five or six hole setups depending on your space. We place cups at the correct depth and angle so they perform like real course greens.
Fringe turf surrounding the green surface adds a realistic course appearance and provides a target boundary for chipping practice.
Dedicated chipping targets and rough zones can be incorporated into the putting green design so you can practice a full short game, not just putting.
A backyard putting green can be installed as part of a full backyard turf project. One installation visit handles both the lawn turf and the putting surface.
Most residential backyard putting greens fall between 200 and 600 square feet. Smaller patios can accommodate a compact practice green. Larger backyards can handle a full multi-hole layout.
A well-built backyard putting green gives you a practice surface at home that actually improves your game. The difference between a real putting green and a cheap practice mat is the ability to practice realistic breaks, ball speed variation across different pin positions, and the repetitive stroke work that only comes from having consistent access to a proper surface.
WB Rubber installs residential putting greens in backyards and patio areas throughout Texas, including Houston, The Woodlands, Conroe, Katy, Sugar Land, Pearland, League City, and Friendswood. We custom contour each green to the specific dimensions and shape of your space. A small backyard patio might accommodate a 200-square-foot single-hole green. A larger suburban backyard can support a 400 to 600 square foot multi-hole layout with fringe turf and a dedicated chipping zone.
The putting surface we install is SportTurf selected for putting green applications. We set the blade height and infill density to create a consistent roll across the surface. Cups are installed at regulation depth so the ball behaves correctly around the hole. Fringe turf surrounds the green to give it a realistic course appearance and to provide a boundary for chipping practice. If you want to combine the putting green with a full backyard turf installation, we can handle both in a single visit. See our backyard turf page and residential turf overview for more.
The design process for a residential putting green starts with your site. We look at the available space, the existing grade of the yard, any slopes that can be incorporated as natural contours in the green, and what you want to practice most. Straight two-putt practice from distance? Multiple pin positions for varying difficulty? A chip-and-putt combination? Each of those informs how the green gets laid out.
Most residential putting greens range from 200 to 600 square feet. At the smaller end, you get a quality single or two-hole green that handles distance control and stroke consistency work. At the larger end, you can include three to five holes, fringe areas, a chip shot target, and enough variety to make every session different.
We install the base for a putting green the same way we build every turf installation: compacted aggregate base graded for drainage, weed barrier, turf installation, and infill. The putting surface requires a more precisely leveled base than standard lawn turf because any base inconsistency shows up in ball roll. Getting the base exactly right takes more time for a putting green than for a standard lawn installation, and that is reflected in the quote. Contact us to discuss your project and we will design something that fits your space and your practice goals.
