Sierra Putting Greens Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the turf made of?
Synthetic putting greens and lawns are made of either nylon or polypropylene fibers. We have purchasing agreements with the best turf manufactures and offer several variations of each type of turf to meet and exceed your putting, chipping, shot hitting and visual requirements.

What is the warranty?
The manufacturers warranty on the turf, as well as the materials and labor for the installation, ranges from 8 to 12 years depending on the type of turf.

How much maintenance is required?
Nylon greens require virtually no maintenance. An occasional weed may try to grow in the turf, but since the roots do not go through the backing the weeds are simple to remove. Polypropylene turfs require approximately 1 hour of maintenance every other month of rolling and/or brooming to keep their speed consistant.

What is the speed of the greens?
We can adjust the green speed from 8 to 11 on the Stimp meter depending on how much sand we add to the turf.

What goes underneath the turf?
We primarily use a compacted rock base. This allows use to create a wide variety of undulations. We can also use concrete if the situation warrants.

Why should I have Sierra Putting Greens install my green?
We know golf AND we know synthetic turfs! We have installed over 100 greens including, PGA pro Kevin Sutherland's and Empire Ranch head pro Brett Taylor's. As an owner operated firm, we will work with you through every step of the process from selection of the right turf, to the design of the shape and undulations, through every step of construction. We are focused on customer satisfaction and treat every project like it is our own.
