Indoor Golf Simulator Room in Richmond Hill — The Project
The homeowner in Richmond Hill wanted a dedicated space for golf practice and entertainment — something that felt premium, not like a DIY setup. The brief was clear: professional quality, clean modern aesthetic, and a room that could be used daily without feeling cramped or temporary.
The before photos tell the full story — raw framing, exposed subfloor structure, bare walls. The transformation to the finished room is dramatic.
Building Your Home Golf Simulator Ontario
The project started with full structural framing to create the correct room dimensions for swing clearance — a critical measurement in any golf simulator build. Ceiling height, room length and width all had to be precise before any finishing work could begin.
Key construction elements:
Acoustic wall treatment Dark acoustic panels were installed across all walls to absorb sound and eliminate echo — essential in a room where a golf club makes significant impact noise. The dark charcoal tone also creates the right visual environment for screen projection.
LED perimeter lighting Custom LED strip lighting was installed around the full perimeter of the ceiling — creating a clean geometric frame effect that defines the room and provides even ambient lighting without glare on the projection screen. The effect is striking in person — the room feels like a purpose-built facility rather than a converted basement space.
Premium turf flooring High quality artificial turf was installed in the hitting area — sized precisely for the simulator setup with realistic ball response underfoot. Luxury vinyl plank flooring surrounds the turf area providing a clean transition and durable surface for the rest of the room.
Projection screen and enclosure A full width projection screen was installed at the far end of the room within a custom built enclosure — creating the immersive hitting bay feel of a professional simulator setup.
Custom Golf Room Richmond Hill — The Result
The finished indoor golf simulator room in Richmond Hill exceeded the client’s expectations on every level. The combination of LED perimeter lighting, dark acoustic walls and premium flooring creates a space that looks and feels completely professional — not a converted room, but a purpose built golf facility inside a residential home.
The homeowner can now practice year-round, entertain guests, and track their swing data regardless of Ontario weather conditions. Whether you’re looking for an indoor golf room in York Region or a fully custom simulator setup, L&T Reno handles the entire build from permits to finishing.
