Backyard Putting Green Cost
On average, the installation of a synthetic backyard putting green costs between $15-$40 per square foot. Let’s take a look at all the factors that can impact the final cost.
How Much Does A Backyard Putting Green Cost?
It’s difficult to project the exact cost of a putting green installation simply because there are so many variables. Size is the biggest factor when determining total cost.
Here is a quick breakdown of costs per square feet:
| 2,000+ Square Feet | $20-$30 Per Sq. Ft. |
| 400-2,000 Square Feet | $20-$30 Per Sq. Ft. |
| Less Than 400 Square Feet | Over $30 Per Sq. Ft. |
Putting Green Cost Factors
While size is typically the most influential cost factor, there are a few other variables homeowners must be aware of. For example, the installation area and any additional features can impact the final price.
Green Size
The typical putting greens used on the PGA Tour can measure anywhere from 5,000-6,000 square feet. This is usually far too large for most backyards, so homeowners tend to install greens that are 1,000 square feet or less on their properties.
Some DIY putting green kits are available these days, ranging from 200-500 square feet, on average.
Site Prep And Access
Site accessibility can have a major impact on installation costs. Prices may be higher in the event the site cannot be accessed with larger machinery.
Similarly, any need for significant sodding or grading can also increase the total cost.
Green Type
Professional installers can create golf greens that use both different construction methods and synthetic turf types. A team of designers and installers should be able to create any sort of green you’d like in your backyard.
Design
Designing a quality customized putting green can be a complex task. Designers must also ensure proper drainage.
Cost ultimately varies depending on the complexity of the design and skill required to bring it to life.
Installation
Homeowners should expect the installation process to take a little longer than planned. Once completed, homeowners will love the durable and low-maintenance putting green.
Added Features
If desired, installers can add some features to the putting green, including bunkers, water features, and more. However, adding features will, of course, increase the total cost of the project.
