Backyard Transformation with Putting Green and Landscape Turf in Lexington
This turf project in Lexington, North Carolina, turned a standard backyard into something much more functional and visually striking. With just under 500 sq ft of putting green and an additional 850 sq ft of landscape turf, this was a transformation built to last—and perform.
At STC (Synthetic Turf Concepts), we do more than install turf. We engineer each space with intention. In this case, the clean lines of the landscape turf flowed perfectly with the paved walkways already in place. But beyond aesthetics, performance mattered just as much.
The putting green wasn’t just about a great surface—it was built with STC’s state-of-the-art drainage system for each putting cup. This is a key feature that often gets overlooked. Without proper drainage at the cup level, you risk water buildup that can degrade the green over time. We eliminate that issue at the source.
In addition to cup drainage, we also integrated full subterranean drainage for the entire turf area. This helps eliminate pooling, reduces the risk of moss or mildew, and keeps the turf looking vibrant and feeling clean year-round—something that’s especially valuable in Lexington’s climate, where heavy rain can be a factor.
Synthetic turf also delivers long-term savings. There’s no mowing, watering, or fertilizing. Just a clean, low-maintenance surface that looks sharp every single day. And with this job, the seamless blend of function and design really stands out.
Whether you’re looking for a backyard putting green, a clean landscape solution, or both, STC has the tools and experience to handle every detail—especially the ones that other companies skip.
More Project Details
Here’s a look at the early stages of this artificial turf project in Lexington. In the first photo, you can see how the original lawn had patchy grass and lacked the crisp, finished look to complement the surrounding stonework. The second image shows the integrated drainage system, which connects directly to each putting green cup. This ensures proper water flow during heavy rains, helping preserve both the turf and the green’s performance over time.
Here’s a look at the finished product. This artificial turf installation completely transformed the backyard, giving it a clean, low-maintenance look that pairs perfectly with the stonework and paver layout. It’s a big visual upgrade that not only improves how the yard functions day to day, but also adds long-term value to the home. The end result is sharp, practical, and built to last.
