Putting Greens & Athletic Surfaces Built for West Texas
The WTX Commitment: Excellence in Action.
Practice at Home. Play on a Surface That Performs.
Putting greens and athletic surfaces aren't like regular turf. Grades have to be exact. Drainage can't fail. The surface needs to roll true and hold up under heat and daily use. Get any of it wrong and the whole thing is off. WTX Outdoor Living designs and installs performance surfaces with precise planning, proper base prep, and one team managing the work start to finish.
See the Grades, Contours, and Layout Before We Break Ground
Performance surfaces leave little room for error. Every project starts with a clear plan that accounts for grading, drainage, and how you'll use the space. Elevations, slopes, and layout are locked in early so contouring, transitions, and play zones are set before installation begins.
One team handles everything from the first conversation to the final walkthrough. Weekly updates keep you in the loop on progress and timing.
A Green That Makes Practice Feel Like Practice
A backyard putting green should do more than look the part. It should play like real golf turf, roll true, and help you sharpen your short game:
Cup placement options that let you practice different lines, breaks, and distances
Stimp speed set to your preference, from fast and firm to more forgiving
Subtle contouring that challenges your read without feeling gimmicky
Fringe and rough areas that frame the green and add realistic ball response
Optional chipping areas for short-game work beyond putting
Layout sized to your space, usage, and practice goals
Every element is planned together so the green plays like it was meant to, not pieced together.
Athletic Surfaces Built for How You Train
Multi-sport and athletic surfaces take a beating. We build them to handle it:
Base depth and compaction matched to the activity level
Turf selected for traction, durability, and heat resistance
Grading that drains fast and stays level under use
Whether it's agility work, family games, or daily training, the surface is tailored to how you'll actually use it.
The WTX STANDARD
Edges, Drainage, and the Details That Keep It Playing Right
A performance surface is only as good as what surrounds it:
Drainage that prevents pooling and soft spots
Transitions that connect cleanly to patios, walkways, or lawn
Edges that hold shape and stay defined over time
Clean seams and edge detailing so everything flows
These details are built in during installation, not fixed later.

TESTIMONIALS
“They did an amazing job on my turf installation! The guys doing the work were also awesome and very professional. They worked until after dark to get the job done. The whole team all went above and beyond! The guys cleaned up and swept everything, even my porch and garage which was not part of the project! Lol! They also finished in half the time they projected! I would highly recommend!!”
