Our Artificial Turf Installation Process
SEE IT IN ACTION
THE MASTER OF INSTALLATION TECHNOLOGY
Since 1996, Southwest Greens has been raising the standard for synthetic grass installation across the United States. Over more than 6,000 greens installed worldwide. More than dozens of top tour professionals have our artificial turf in their backyards. That kind of track record doesn't happen by luck. It happens through a process that's been optimized, tested, and mastered at every phase.
BUILT IN THE USA
Our artificial grass is made right here in America by Shaw Industries, a Berkshire Hathaway company. That means every piece of lawn turf grass that goes into your installation has the backing of one of the most respected companies in turf innovation — combined with the hands-on craftsmanship of your local Southwest Greens team. Shaw's R&D team has developed innovations like Bolt™ fiber technology and HydroChill® evaporative cooling, so the synthetic turf you're installing isn't just durable — it's genuinely comfortable to play on, even on a hot afternoon.
CERTIFIED INSTALLERS, EVERY TIME
Every Southwest Greens representative is trained and certified through our Pro System — a comprehensive certification process built around the highest standards in the artificial turf field. This isn't just a simple checkmark. It's how we ensure that your synthetic grass installation is completed properly the first time, with the material understanding and technical skill to support every choice made during installation. No other provider offers that level of structured quality assurance.
LAYER BY LAYER, IT ALL COMES TOGETHER
Once the base is set, we install a standard ¼-inch pad designed to maintain true ball roll and soften the impact of your shot. From there, our 1⅛-inch polypropylene artificial grass is laid down — made to mirror the color, softness, and playability of traditional live grass greens. The turf is then infilled with premium silica sand, giving it the realistic feel during play that distinguishes a high-quality outdoor putting green from one that just looks the part.
6,000+ GREENS, ONE STANDARD OF EXCELLENCE
Whether you're adding a backyard putting green to sharpen your putting or planning a full artificial turf installation for a commercial property, the method is the same: meticulous, certified, and engineered for longevity. Southwest Greens doesn't do generic. Every ft2 of artificial grass we install reflects the precision we've spent nearly thirty years developing.
THE FINISHING TOUCHES THAT MAKE IT YOURS
Zero turf designs look the same — and that’s exactly the point. Once the base layers are complete, we roll the tops to simulate the response of a bent grass green. From there, the options open up.
Fringe in the first and second cut, tee lines, traps, bunkers, fairways, roughs — whatever your design calls for, we can build it. Your outdoor putting green should feel like it was made for you, your game, and your goals. That's exactly what we provide.
