Want to work on your short game at home? Our putting green installation in Chandler, AZ starts with the base. Call (480) 219-0038 and we will shape the slopes, set the cups and lay short, dense turf so the ball rolls true all year. We are a family-owned Chandler crew, licensed, bonded and insured, and your free on-site estimate comes with a written price.
Tell us where the yard is and we will come measure it.
Anyone can roll out short turf. A real green needs a base that is smoothed and compacted in thin layers, with the slopes built in on purpose. Get that wrong and the ball wobbles, dies in low spots or breaks where it should not.
The base under a backyard putting green in Chandler also has to hold its shape through monsoon rain and clay soil that swells and shrinks. We dig below the caliche crust where needed and build up in lifts so the surface stays true.
Ready when you arePicture your own backyard putting green that rolls true all year. CGL Landscaping builds putting greens in Chandler, Gilbert, Mesa and across the East Valley, with the slopes and cups shaped into the base. Book a free on-site estimate or call (480) 219-0038.
A putting green does not need a big lot. A corner beside the patio or the side yard off the garage can hold a practice green.
Golfers across Chandler, Ahwatukee and Gilbert fit greens into all kinds of yards. These are six common ways we lay them out.
The green sits inside the rest of the lawn turf, with a fringe line so you can see where it starts.
Same crew and same base work for the strip out front while we are there.
A small, flat green for lag putting and short putts, fit into a corner of the yard.
More cups and built-in slope for practicing reads from different angles.
Put it where you already sit, framed by pavers or travertine so the edge stays clean.
Greens at offices and common areas, built for more players and more traffic.
Show us the spot. We will tell you what size and shape fits and what the slope would take, at no charge.
Your yard already has a grade, and that grade decides how much shaping the green needs. We measure the footprint, check the existing fall and the access for base material, then write up a firm price.
We also note where the afternoon sun hits and where the monsoon water runs. Those two things decide where the green sits and which way its low side should drain.
Most of the time on a green goes into the base. The turf goes down near the end, once the contour is right.
Putting green installation in Chandler takes more hand work than a lawn install. The crew rakes, wets and compacts the top layer until a ball rolls straight across the flat sections.
Size, shape, cups and breaks agreed on site.
Soil and old material dug out and hauled.
Base placed, shaped and compacted in layers.
Green turf laid, cups cut, fringe seamed.
Infill worked in and putts tested.
A green looks best with a hard border and a place to stand. Pavers, travertine or a flagstone path out to it give the green a finished edge and keep rock off the putting surface.
Low voltage landscape lighting lets you putt after the sun goes down, when the summer heat finally breaks. Desert plants and decorative rock around the green keep the rest of the yard low water.
A green is priced after we see the yard and talk about how you play. These four things decide most of the number.
A simple practice green and a multi cup green with breaks can sit on the same footprint and still price differently. Most of the difference is shaping time in the base.
More surface means more base, more turf and more shaping time.
A flat practice green takes less work than one with several breaks.
Each cup is cut, set and leveled by hand.
Collar turf, pavers or stone around the edge add material and labor.

Best landscapers I’ve ever had! I live in an HOA with very strict rules and they did an absolutely fabulous job. So thankful to have found them. Each of their employees are extremely hard working and even go above and beyond wiping off patio furniture and making every part of the front/backyard presentable. Can’t wait to see them again!Posted on Google![]()

We’ve been working with CGL for nearly a year now, and they’ve been incredible. They helped us get our irrigation system back on track after our previous landscaper severely dropped the ball. Additionally, anytime we had an emergency leak, they were on-site within a few hours at most. Their responsiveness, professionalism, and quality of work have been outstanding. It's also nice to work with someone like Jose and can answer all of your questions and explain everything in such detail to ensure you understand the issue(s) at hand. Highly recommend!Posted on Google![]()

I recently hired CGL Landscaping for sod installation at my home in Phoenix, and they did a fantastic job. From the initial consultation to the final touches, their professionalism and expertise were evident. They prepared the soil and installed high-quality, lush sod that transformed my yard. CGL Landscaping's attention to detail and customer service set them apart. They ensured proper irrigation, provided aftercare instructions, and even followed up to check on the sod's progress. The project was completed on time and within the estimated timeframes Overall, I'm extremely satisfied with CGL Landscaping. Their commitment to quality and outstanding customer service have earned my trust and future business. I highly recommend them for any landscaping needs in the Phoenix area.Posted on Google![]()

CGL Landscaping has been great to work with. We reached out to Jose to get an estimate for a one time clean up and monthly service. Jose and Alan showed up the next day to provide an estimate for both services. We elected to move forward with CGL and the clean up crew was out the following day to complete services. Two weeks later, the monthly maintenance crew showed up to complete our first monthly service. Invoicing and payment is easy through an online portal. Jose and Alan were both responsive throughout the process and were accessible via text, email or phone call. So far we are very pleased with our services through CGL and would recommend them to anyone looking for landscaping services.Posted on Google![]()

CGL landscaping made the process super easy from start to finish. Jose came out quickly to give me a proposal and I got it the same day. Scheduling was also very easy, and my project was done on time. Would recommend CGL to anyone if you’re looking for great work and great customer service.Posted on Google![]()

I used to use another landscaping company and they never did the job right, along with that the communication was not there, never got returned calls and it was impossible to reach someone. Then I found CGL Landscaping. They were quick to come out for a free estimate and communication was always and still there. One of the office workers, Alan, is always there to answer and if he doesn't, he is quick to respond. Thank you CGL for 3 great years and many more to come!Posted on Google![]()

SUPER TOP NOTCH COMPANY Best experience, Jose was kind and understanding of my situation. I had LNR landscaping put in synthetic turf in my front yard, did a horrible job. After months of trying to get them to come back, after they’ve been paid in full to fix it. They stopped returning phone calls , never kept set appointments to come and fix it. I called Jose and they blew me away, they came right away, crew was all friendly and got the job done quickly. They went above and beyond I was just thinking they to fix what was there but the job was so bad they removed it all and replaced the whole area. Definitely will recommend to everyone I know. Thanks Jose and team that came today you made my nightmare a beauty that I can now enjoy when I walk out my door.Posted on Yelp![]()

I worked with Jose and his team and found them to be professional, courteous and trustworthy. My yard looks amazing. Jose was patient with me as I made a few changes from my original design. The trees they planted are looking healthy as well as the flower bed, Jose offered to provided care to my front yard and it turned out awesome. He also offered to made a nice area for my dog it turned out great. My plan is to continue with CGL Landscaping for maintenance. Thank you Jose for a job well done.

I rarely, if ever, write reviews let alone give someone a 5-star rating unless they REALLY deserve it. We interviewed 4 landscaping companies before we selected Creative Green Landscaping. We chose them because they were very knowledgeable, and made us feel comfortable from our very first meeting. Jose (the owner) made it clear that our satisfaction was their number one goal. He definitely followed through and they did a beautiful job. They started the work immediately and throughout the project they showed up early and stayed late. They worked hard and provided quality work. When we decided last minute to make changes, they were flexible and helpful. We have had our fair share of negative contractor experiences, so we appreciate good and honest firms like Creative Green Landscaping. We highly recommend them for your project.Load more
If you are wondering something else, bring it up during the free site visit. We can mark the green out on the ground while we talk.
These are the questions golfers in Chandler and Ahwatukee ask before they commit to a backyard green. They cover speed, breaks, size and upkeep.
Speed depends on the turf, the infill level and how firm the base is. We talk through the speed you want before we build and adjust the infill at the end to get close to it.
Yes. Slopes are shaped into the base before the turf goes down, so you can have a flat practice green or one with real breaks to read.
It depends on the yard and how you practice. We mark a few options on the ground so you can see the size before you decide.
It depends on the turf and the base. Tell us if you plan to chip and we will factor that into the turf choice and the fringe.
Blow off leaves and debris, brush it now and then to keep the infill even, and keep furniture and pets off the putting surface.
Yes. We build greens in Ahwatukee, Chandler, Gilbert, Mesa, Tempe and across the East Valley.
Chandler based, with greens in Ahwatukee, Gilbert, Mesa and beyond. We build in HOA communities and on custom lots across the East Valley.
Many HOAs in Maricopa County review backyard changes before work starts. If your community asks for one, we can give you a simple layout of the green to include with your request.
The layout drives the base work and the price. Here are four common ones we can build in a Chandler backyard.
Tell us whether you want to work on lag putting, short putts or reading breaks. That answer usually picks the layout for you.
One or two cups on a level surface, built for speed control.
Shaped slopes and breaks for reading putts.
A collar of longer turf around the green for a finished look.
CGL is a family owned company based in Chandler. The crew shaping your green is our own, and they check the roll before they pack up.
The people who build your green live with the same heat, soil and monsoon storms you do. That shapes how we build every base in the East Valley.
Free estimate, no obligation. We look at the space and the slope and give you a written price for the green.
