Our Asheville, NC Artificial Turf Installation Process
THE MASTER OF INSTALLATION TECHNOLOGY
Since 1996, Southwest Greens has been raising the standard for synthetic grass installation across the nation. Over 6,000 greens completed worldwide. More than 24+ top tour professionals have our artificial turf in their backyards. That kind of proven performance doesn't happen by accident. It happens through a methodology that's been refined, validated, and mastered at every phase.
BUILT IN THE USA
Our artificial grass is made right here in the U.S. by Shaw Industries, a Berkshire Hathaway company. That means every roll of lawn turf grass that goes into your build has the support of one of the leading brands in materials science — alongside the hands-on craftsmanship of your local Southwest Greens team in Asheville. The Shaw R&D team has introduced innovations like Bolt™ fiber technology and HydroChill® evaporative cooling, so the synthetic turf you're getting isn't just long-lasting — it's genuinely comfortable to walk on, even on warm days.
CERTIFIED INSTALLERS, EVERY TIME
Every Southwest Greens representative in Asheville is certified and trained through our Pro System — a rigorous certification system built around the highest standards in the artificial turf industry. This isn't just a box we check. It's how we guarantee that your synthetic grass installation is completed properly the first time, with the technical expertise and technical skill to support every choice made during installation. No competitor offers that level of structured quality assurance.
LAYER BY LAYER, IT ALL COMES TOGETHER
Once the base is set, we install a minimum ¼-inch cushion pad designed to support natural ball roll and reduce the impact of your shot. From there, our 1⅛-inch polypropylene artificial grass goes down — made to recreate the color, texture, and performance of traditional live grass greens. The turf is then stabilized with fine-coated silica sand, giving it the realistic feel underfoot that separates a premium outdoor putting green from one that just looks the part.
6,000+ GREENS, ONE STANDARD OF EXCELLENCE
Whether you're building a backyard putting green to refine your short game or developing a full artificial turf installation for a commercial property, the method is the same: meticulous, certified, and made to last. We doesn't do one-size-fits-all. Every ft2 of artificial grass we install shows the craftsmanship we've spent nearly 30 years developing.
THE FINISHING TOUCHES THAT MAKE IT YOURS
Zero Southwest Greens projects share the same layout — and that's the point. Once the base layers are complete, we roll the surface to replicate the performance of a bent grass green. From there, the custom features expand.
Fringe cuts in the first and second cut, tee lines, hazards, bunkers, fairways, roughs — whatever your design calls for, we can construct it. Your outdoor putting green should perform like it was made for your property, your playing style, and your goals. That's exactly what we provide.
