GREEN UP TURF CARE

Lawn Fertilization & Treatment, Lawn and Yard Work

About us

Since 1988 Green-Up Turf Care has provided customers in the Richmond, Virginia area with professional lawn care services including fertilization, weed, disease and insect control, and aeration and overseeding. We provide residential lawns with quality products at the appropriate time throughout the year. Green-Up Turf Care is intentionally small and has never had more than two employees. We believe that in remaining small we can better focus on the needs of our customers. We believe business success and profit stems from customer satisfaction and retention, rather than customer volume. We have some customers who have been with us since 1988 and a good many who have been with us for five, ten and even fifteen years. Indeed, Green-Up Turf Care does not advertise, preferring instead to rely on customer referrals. The present owner, Thomas R. Helsel, acquired the business in February, 2001. Prior to acquiring Green-Up, Mr. Helsel operated a successful residential lawn irrigation business in the Richmond market. He holds degrees from both Miami University Oxford, Ohio and the University of Virginia. As required by state law, we are fully licensed as Commercial Pesticide Applicators and Registered Technicians under the requirements of the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services. Green-Up Turf Care is a member of the Virginia Turf Council which sponsors research, education and advocacy in the turf care field.

Tom and his team are excellent. They come once a month to work on my lawn. It's the best looking one in the neighborhood and I get many compliments on it. He leaves detailed instructions on what the climate has been like, and if there is anything I need to do for the next month, like watering, avoid cutting for the treatment to set in, etc.
Description of Work: Monthly lawn maintenance and annual aeration and seeding.

I have been using this company for 12 years now. My grass is the greenest and best looking on my street. The people always show up when they are supposed to and I never have to call them. They also do the aerating for me once a year, but that s an extra service and charge.
Description of Work: I have them spray my yard for pesticides and weeds. They spray about 5,000 square feet worth of grass. This service also includes seeding the areas if needed. I am billed every 2 months for this service.
