How to Install a Putting Green and Artificial Turf Backyard Remodel #5 

I have been watching your fathers videos for years now. I have a landscaping company here in Texas and I’m digging your videos brother keep up the good work

Great breakdown of all the steps!! Thanks for posting these!

This is a very informative video. We've been sharing with customers, it's that good.

Your pops taught you well! Attention to detail is 🔥

You guys rock! I appreciate all knowledge you share. Thank you

I like the putting green idea. Very impressive result!

Excellent job across the board,

Awesome work like always

Very generous information my friend, thank you!

Just started watching your videos and I have to say I love your attention to detail! I've seen other turf installers that don't go the extra mile to ensure the best quality finish like you do. Kudos.

Looks amazing 👏

Great work ,nice explanation, thanks

Solid work !!!

Clean . Love it

Great video! I have a small space and will be working by myself in Arizona early summertime. I want to just do the putting green part and no fringe to save time / hassle and utilize the small space with as much putting area as possible. Is this a terrible idea?

What a great video and great work my friend.

Great job of describing all the little details

Nice work on this one.

Me gusto mucho ese trabajo

Looks great 👍

Great video! getting turf and putting green installed later this month.

super clean job

Excellent work guys. Love the detailed video. Thanks for breaking everything down. Very detailed work. Planning on doing my own putting green. Quick question. How often should the 6” galvanized nails be installed? I saw you put a bunch in a row but how far apart are those rows? And I’m assuming all around the perimeter as well?? Thanks Again. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

The correct way to place the cup is to use a 3:1 sand to cement mix 6 inches wide and deep around the cup and 6 inches of 1/2 to 3/4 rock under the cup for drainage. Also wiggle the cup in your mix as it can then be adjusted when grass is installed. Lower is better than higher when installing putting cup. A cup through your compacted sub grade is making a weak area when it is stepped on after moisture. KIDS are the true test as they will certainly jump up and down on the cup or place foreign objects in it loosening and creating a putting surface issue. Nice job on remainder of installation.

Beautiful.

Great Job, thank you for sharing. (Y)

Beautiful work! I want a putting green..as a quick estimate what would just that putting green with two feet of fringe cost?

that looks great!

Perfect installation

looks amazing

Question - I would like to have an elevated area on my putting green 34’ x 15’ I notice this did create a couple small wrinkles near the point of elevation. Do you have a video that shows how to remove wrinkles from a putting green? This video shows a few nails on the far side of the putting green that are removed as you position the rough edge by the home with the green edge. Your video offers fantastic detail. Thank you!

Good Work 👌😎

Great video! Does it matter if the finish nails are galvanized or non-galvanized?

Full send bro never lift mobbin deep 😏 🤙 stay humble nice already at 2k subs swish!

What is the first cover you put over the 3/4 inch crushed concrete? Do you put down any weed barrier cloth or material before the crushed concrete??

Very informative

Nice job on the video thanks

Nice Job!

Nice work.. now I know I need a pro to do mine

This is awesome! How thick did you do your sand layer?

There’s a patio cover gutter downspout that drains on to the level artificial turf. There’s no place for the water to go except to the putting green that’s slightly lower. You should gave added extra drainage pipes to the side yard. Luckily, it doesn’t rain much in California.

Awesome job!!!have you ever had the big nails pull up or back out on job later down the road like years later was just curious thanks keep up the quality work

Is there a variation of the top sands spread over the top that might get hotter with sun than others?

I will be a first timer to install turf, with a separate putting green. Do you have an idea for me what to look for as far as to approach this job

What is the brand of turf? Would like to buy that for my backyard green

Good job bro

Awesome job, are you guys in Tracy ca?

How did you get your putting green in place? Did you glue it down or did you wait to staple the actual turf to the putting green turf?

Awesome

Don’t you need some drains on the turf to pick up run off from patio and surface water from rain ?

Who manufactures the true you used and what weight is the turf on this job?

Hi there , how many inches of gravel and cg would you recommend and the brand of the putting green turf? If you don’t mind? Thank you

Thank you

How did you hide you staples around the putting green?

How did you hide the nails around the green? the nails that connect the green with turf.

what do you do if you dont have a compactor

How much does something like this cost

how fast do the putting green run?

Just curious. Do you do the wave seam at head seams or all seams? My company does turf around playgrounds and XGrass told us years ago to avoid head seams at all costs

I know this is old, but may i make a few suggestions? To get a realistic putting green I'd recommend having a way to set the cups set 1" below putting surface. I know it's just a practice green so it doesn't really matter, but for me it would take that green to the next level. Also I wouldn't want it perfectly level, I'd want a small grade here or there

What’s the name of the tool you used to cut out the holes? Where do you buy or rent one?

Using screeds rods or even a 3/4 or 1” cast iron pipe helps with leveling out. It’s super efficient.

What gauge and length are the staples? I have 6 inch 11 gauge and they bend when I hammer them into the compacted base.

Do you service San Bernardino area?

What was th3 cost of the proj3ct?

you def don't want the putting surface to be lumpy & bumpy, but it seems like you would want the putting surface to have some break for better practice

When you chalked out the shape of your green did you cut it out from the top? I noticed your always cutting from the bottom and wouldn’t be able to see the chalk if you did that

Get it on

What does DG stand for?

What length is the grass/fringe ?

Nice vid, can you work on your speech irregularities?

Why did you add the silica sand to the bottom of the green ?

What is the tool you used to dig out the holes for the putting cups? Was this something you made or something anyone can find or make?

Should have put weed barrier down and cemented holes in place.

Is this Smart Turf you installed?

What turf do you usually use or recommend?

What brand/type of artifical turf did you use? Not for the putting green, but the rest of it.

After you marked the top of the putting green with chalk you didn’t show how you cut. Did you cut it from the top side with a razor blade?

to be used and utilized 4:34

What does DG mean? It goes above the 3/4 crushed concrete?

Edger, when seeming the turf together why not over laying both sides one on top of the other flat on the ground and cut both at the same time and you’ll have seem? I hope it will helps.

I have almost an identical layout land wise I'd like to do something almost identical with. Anyone have a rough estimate of how much this job would have cost the home owner?

What’s the color name for this putting green?

At 17:04, I think those are staples on the putting green?!?!? I am still trying to find out if the putting green need any nails at all. I am now leaning towards Yes. Perhaps using nails with a smaller head. i.e. finishing nail.

How much is that job worth? I'm thinking of doing a three hole in my yard!

Pretty Bad Ass. Great look

As a golfer, it would be nice to have a less level surface to mimic the real golf greens

How much did you charge for this job? Ballpark?

How much does the average installer make per hour?

Hi , how long are those nails?

Where are you guys located??

I assume they didn't have money for that side yard with the AC? They should have stretched their budget just a bit to even put down gravel. That side yard looks rough just being dirt.

How much did this job cost??

This wouldn't work on the east coast because there's no drainage. The 3 holes would be full of water and mosquitoes. It does look great,.

Wheres part 1?

you're relying on a harbor freight level?

Why in the world would you want a perfectly level putting green

Greens shouldn't be completely level. Make it realistic put in slopes and breaks to give players a challenge and great better at ready the greens

asi no con el niven.?? eres novato

I hate California ranch homes.
