Frequently Asked Questions
We serve properties throughout Goochland County, including Manakin-Sabot, Rockville, Centerville, and the residential areas along Route 6, River Road, and the Broad Street Road corridor. Our Richmond location on Saints Lane sits right on the county line, so our crews are on your side of the county quickly. No long travel times eating into your service window.
Yes. A good portion of Goochland homes sit on larger lots, and our crews are equipped to handle maintenance, design, and installation on properties of all sizes. We’ll scope the work to match what your property actually needs — whether that’s weekly mowing on a half-acre in Centerville or a multi-phase design-build project on several wooded acres.
Absolutely. Goochland’s mix of clay-heavy soils, wooded lots with significant shade, and open pasture-style landscapes means plant selection matters more here than on a cookie-cutter suburban lot. Our team holds degrees in horticulture and turf management, so we choose plants that actually thrive in your specific microclimate — not just what looks good at the nursery.
For maintenance contracts, we can typically begin within a couple of weeks of your signed agreement, depending on the season and route availability. Design-build projects move on a longer timeline — usually a few weeks for design and proposal, then scheduling based on material lead times and crew availability. We’ll give you a realistic timeline upfront, not a best-case promise we can’t keep.
Transparent pricing, flexible options. Our pricing page breaks down what’s included in each service and how our seasonal packages work. We accept all major payment methods and invoice electronically for your convenience.
Once you sign, you’re assigned a single point of contact who handles your property from that day forward. No phone tag, no being routed through a call center, no wondering who’s in charge. You’ll also get automatic service reports after each visit, so you always know what was done and when, even when you’re not home to see the crew on-site.
Founded in 2004, GSU was created by a local team with a deep background in the science of landscaping and a rich history of working with the tools of the trade. Our goal is to provide the best landscaping and lawn care services in the Richmond and Williamsburg communities.
