Question 1

How much does a backyard putting green cost in Halifax?

Accepted Answer

A backyard putting green in the HRM typically runs between $3,500 and $12,000+ depending on size, shape complexity, number of holes, and whether you want fringe grass, chipping areas, or contouring. We build to your layout and budget — give us a call and we'll walk you through options.

Question 2

What kind of turf is used for putting greens?

Accepted Answer

Putting greens use a low-pile specialty artificial turf designed for ball roll consistency, typically 10–15mm pile height. It's a different product than lawn turf — the blades are shorter, denser, and designed so a golf ball rolls true rather than bouncing or stopping unpredictably.

Question 3

Do backyard putting greens hold up through Halifax winters?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The artificial turf we use for putting greens is UV-stabilized and designed to handle freeze-thaw cycles without lifting or buckling. The sub-base is built to drain and handle ground movement. You can cover it in winter or leave it as-is — it'll be ready to putt in spring.

Question 4

Can you chip and pitch on an artificial putting green?

Accepted Answer

You can chip onto the green surface, but dedicated chipping areas benefit from a slightly longer-pile turf around the green (the fringe) that absorbs impact better. We can include a chipping zone in the design if that's part of how you want to use the green.

Question 5

How much space do I need for a backyard putting green?

Accepted Answer

You can build a functional single-hole green on as little as 200–300 square feet. Most Halifax backyard greens we install run 400–800 sq ft with two or three holes. Irregular shapes work well — we design around your yard, not the other way around.
