Our FG Pavers and Turf team delivered a game-changer with this custom backyard putting green in San Ramon, CA, transforming an ordinary yard into a top-notch golf training facility for the whole family! We started by partnering with the homeowner to craft a putting green that’s built for real golf practice—not just a basic setup with holes. After demo, we brought in a 3/4” drain rock sub base, topped it with a smooth DG coat, and mapped out every seam with precision. We raised the right side by 2 feet to create the perfect slope for ball breaks, then installed SGW PP 2 Tone turf with a 3’ wide AZ Olive Platinum fringe. The green comes equipped with 3 count 6” deep metal cups and fiberglass flag sticks with metal head casts, all framed by a 1″x4″ brown composite bend-a-board border, staked every 4 feet for those smooth curves (with pressure-treated wood for straight runs). Our crew worked efficiently, keeping the San Ramon neighborhood’s peace in mind with minimal disruption.

This putting green is engineered to last with next-to-no upkeep, thanks to the durable turf and smart base design that thrives in the Bay Area’s climate. From kids to great-grandparents, this space is ready for endless fun, with lighted pins planned as a future addition to make evening play a breeze. (Need more cups? We’ve got extras available!) At FG Pavers and Turf, we’re here to build spaces that win—maximizing your yard’s potential so you can focus on enjoying every moment. You deserve a backyard this incredible, and we’re ready to make it happen for you!
