For this project at London Heathrow, Evergreens LazyLawn we asked to design and install a custom putting green on the roof of the 6th floor Arora International Hotel. Before installation roofing contractors moved a series of roof ducts and soil pipes to new locations before installing a raised deck to clear the remainder of the ducks and roof structure, this also allowed for the hole cups to be sunk into the position required.

Before the green could be installed 200sqm of putting green surface and 150sqm of Lazy Grass fringe were lifted by crane up to the required floor along with 3 tonne of sand and 2 tonne of rubber all or which were used during the installation.

The green was pre-designed and approved by cad drawing this was then cut into the 18mm rubber base to provide a firm base for the green whilst providing an accurate feel. At this time rubber undulations were placed below the 18mm rubber this gave the green shape and a challenging putting experience. The nylon surface was then rolled over the rubber base and cut to shape. Once this was done the Lazy Grass fringe was installed to provide chipping areas around the green.
