More Than 100 5-Star Reviews!
Our third time out with GSU in a little over a years. This time replanting the front yard after clearing an overgrown flower bed in November 2021. Ivan and the GSU crew were their usual fantastic selves. On time and very detailed.
The GSU process, through their web site, takes all the guesswork out of the process. Scheduling an appointment was easy. Our design consultant was helpful in suggesting the plants to select.
We give them a solid "10".
Update, January 2024. Mulching was perfect. Dominic and crew exceeded our expectations. Another 10! Thank you.
11/26/24 another perfect experience! Thank you GSU Team.
Bill's estimate was cost-effective compared to other companies we consulted, and work began just a week after we put down our deposit. His team promptly and safely removed five large trees from our property and ground the stumps and roots for complete removal. They also installed irrigation for our half-acre lot and seeded the area to ensure grass growth, even in the semi-shaded spots.
The entire project was incredibly fast, budget-friendly, and exactly what we envisioned. Communication from Green Side Up was consistent, keeping us informed throughout the process. They even accommodated a couple of additional side projects I requested on the spot and provided estimates for that extra work without hesitation.
Overall, I was extremely impressed with the Green Side Up team and highly recommend them to anyone in the Richmond area looking for landscaping services!
When they were grinding the stumps, they accidentally hit the cover to our water meter. However, this was not their fault because whoever marked the utilities did not mark the water meter. They even called the utility company, or whoever gives the ok to grind stumps/dig/etc, and they said everything had been marked and they could proceed. The city came out to replace the water meter cover and I guess they had to dig up whatever was around the water meter and install a new one. When doing this, they did not care what it looked like before or after. They dug up our new sod, placed the new water meter cover, then threw dirt around it. I sent GSU a message with pictures and they came out the next day to fix it. They didn't charge me anything additional. Because of their customer service and quality of work, they have a lifelong customer. I highly recommend using GSU for all your landscape needs.
