  • Styrofoam under "grass"

    I believed I saw someone here who had put styrofoam and some thinner wooden board under the grass, but now I can't find it.

    Anyone who has done it and can give me some inspiration?

    I am curious as well. I am planning on 1.5” foam board insulation panels with 1/2” carpet pad on top, then my putting turf. I have a 2 3/8” hitting strip and would like for everything to be flush and level.

      I just did this in my basement sim. I used 1" foam board insulation, 1/2" foam puzzle tiles, and turf on top. I have a fiberbuilt hitting insert and this works great.

          Hey guys... what you're looking for is Foamular, but that goes under the subfloor (covering concrete), and then I have underlayment over that with the 1/2" foam puzzle tiles, then turf.

          You can see pics (of Foamular 150 - I think it was 3/4" thick as that is what I used for floor joists 3/4" thick laid on it's side) and follow my entire build here:
          ​​​Hi Everyone, I'm starting this post as a way to keep myself accountable. The tasks are huge, but not insurmountable as I'm having to do all my build work by myself. Contractors are either non-existent in this post-pandemic marketplace, or they have so much work they are 3 months out! I'll be posting up here as I make


          and see how it looks when you have to cut into it, here:

          The 1/2" foam puzzle tiles are here:


          The Turf I have is Grass-Tex Club Champion, find it here: https://grass-tex.com/product/club-champion-2/
          (you will have to look up a local 'carpet store' that sells putting turf. I found one, and got a pretty good deal, 10'x16' (with padding on it) for around $690 I think.
          Grass-Tex also makes 'Money Putt' which some like. I've not compared the two laid out, the carpet store I found was out of Money Putt at the time of my order.

          Let me know if you have questions.
