A backyard putting green needs a coordinated surface, base, seam plan, cups, and optional lighting—not just a piece of green turf.
Surface and base
Choose dedicated putting turf for the playing surface and use landscape or fringe products only for their intended surrounding role. Plan the base, drainage, grading, edge restraint, and SKU-specific infill with the complete installed system in mind.
Cuts, seams, and targets
Translate the design into fixed-width cuts with consistent fiber direction. Verify seam tape and adhesive compatibility, cup positions, flagstick sets, and replacement parts before fabrication.
For after-dark use, add fixture-specific cups or brackets, lamps, a compatible transformer, wiring, and service access to the plan. DeliverTurf supplies materials and planning guidance; it does not claim to provide installation.
