Who We Are

Our History

The XGD Solution

Engineered Below the Surface. Built for Long-Term Performance.

Our precision subsurface drainage system lowers the water table, promotes deeper root growth, and strengthens turf from the ground up.

Rather than relying on surface-level water control, XGD addresses subsurface saturation at its source. By creating engineered drainage pathways beneath the surface, we improve soil stability, increase oxygen flow to roots, and reduce excess moisture.

The result is healthier turf, improved playability, and consistent performance — even after heavy rainfall.

Oakmont chose XGD as a long-term solution after conducting thorough research into the process. It was a proven procedure and was our only option to avoid rebuilding the putting greens. The Club is now experiencing great effects from the XGD system. We are able to recover much quicker following rainfall events. Overall, we are also able to provide better quality playing conditions on a daily basis for our Members and their guests. The ability to move water through and out of the profile has also helped us to provide healthier turfgrass. We have talked to countless people regarding XGD across the country and to our knowledge, no one has reported anything but success.

The installation of the XGD drainage system by Matt Magarian and his crew could not be doing a better job. They have brought playability back to portions of our 17th fairway that have been drained. We received 2″ of rain 3 weeks ago. #17 fairway typically is the last fairway to open up for cart usage. Post installation on # 17 fairway of the XGD on 8′ centers, we were able to drive carts over the entire area without leaving behind the usual tire tracks. There was NO standing water and the outfall pipe was flowing with water. It is a tremendous process. The crew has been very neat while working off of plywood the entire time. It is a process that our property has needed. I strongly recommend other golf courses that have similar wet conditions, to install your system. It works! You should be proud of your team.

Jim Colo, The Alotian Club

Glen View Club very much appreciates the expertise and dedication of your personnel during installation of the XGD subsurface drainage system on ten of our greens in April and May 2007. XGD’s team worked efficiently and in close coordination with our Superintendent, Tony Frandria, and his grounds crew with minimal disruption to member play on the golf course. Our membership was very impressed with the process and the results. The XGD system was not invasive to our greens which were ready for play a day after installation of the green drainage. More importantly, the XGD System is effective and cost efficient. We look forward to your firm returning in October to complete the project for our remaining greens.
