This is my first time submitting an online review and for good reason. I want to say that working with Green Side Up has been amazing. I have had the chance to get to know the owners and they sincerely care about doing the right things for their customers. Their leadership and high level of expectations flows through the entire company including those on the ground doing the hard work. In my case I have been blessed by working with Mike, Billy, Josh and Dro. They are all wonderful people who care about every single detail of my yard (which extends over 8 acres). They never miss a beat, are always on time, and make me feel like I’m the only home they take care of. They are also incredibly kind, always smiling, always friendly and always giving 100%. I really could not be happier with this team and so appreciate their kindness, friendship and work ethic. Thank you to the GSU team for making my life so much easier and happier. -Scott

Highly recommend GSU for any landscape project. Our new construction home was just a dirt backyard with some seed down that never took.

Preston and the rest of the team came up with a plan to fix drainage, add grass, beds, and shrubs while still fitting within our budget. As you can see from the before and after photos I added, it made a huge difference and now we have a backyard we actually enjoy.

We liked their work so much we’re already talking to them again about adding a couple of trees to the backyard as well.

Very happy with GSU landscaping. The design process was really engaging and Preston picked out the perfect plants and layout for us. We went through a lot of discussion and revisions, which I appreciated because in general it's not cheap to get a landscaping project done. It took a little longer to get to the project than I hoped but that was due to rain and demand, so no big deal. Once we got to the execution Ivan and his team finished in just one 8 hour day. You can see from the pictures how nice everything looked. We had to make a few adjustments at the end due to availability of some plants, but Ivan worked through that with me without any issues. Can't wait for the next project.

We found Green Side Up Landscaping through a Google search and were impressed by their reviews on Google and Yelp. After scheduling an initial estimate, Bill came to our home and walked us through a thoughtful design that prioritized a large play area for our kids. He provided a detailed plan for maintaining the landscape and suggested valuable additions, like proper drainage and erosion mitigation around our foundation.

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!
