Our yard sits on Huguenot Springs Road in Midlothian, which means most Midlothian properties are a five minute drive from where the trucks start the day. That is not a marketing line, it is the reason the schedule holds. A crew that is not spending an hour in traffic gets to the next property when it said it would, and a callback in Brandermill does not cost half a day.
It is also why the work compounds here. When we are in the same neighbourhood every week, the same foreman keeps seeing the same property, and the second year of a maintenance contract looks better than the first for reasons that have nothing to do with effort and everything to do with familiarity.
The mix here runs heavily to hardscape and design-build. Patios, walls, walkways and outdoor living space, usually on properties where the planting beds went in with the house and are ready to be rethought. Maintenance contracts and irrigation follow, because a patio and a bed system that were designed together need to be looked after together.
If you are collecting quotes on a patio, the question worth asking every one of us is how deep the base goes and whether it is compacted in lifts. There is a full answer on the hardscaping page, and it is the single question that separates a patio that looks the same at year fifteen from one that does not.
Richmond-area soil holds water, and Midlothian is no exception. If the yard is still pooling on a Monday after a Friday storm, that is not a wet week, that is drainage, and it is usually cheaper to solve before the patio goes in than after. The five signs worth checking yourself are on the drainage page.
Our coverage map is a guide, not a hard line. If your street is not on it and you are near the routes, send your zip and a short description through the estimate form and we will tell you honestly whether we can get there.
Our yard is at 2519 Huguenot Springs Road in Midlothian and crews leave from it every working day, so Midlothian properties are the shortest drive we make. Route frequency here is daily.
Brandermill, Woodlake, Salisbury, Tarrington, Hallsley and Foxcroft are the ones we are in most often, and the coverage is broader than that list. If your street is not named, send your zip through the estimate form and we will tell you straight away.
23113 and 23114 for Midlothian proper. Moseley at 23112 and 23120 is a separate daily route about fifteen minutes out.
Yes and no, in that order. We walk the property, tell you what is actually happening on it, and put a written number in front of you. There is no obligation attached to the estimate.
Routes get built in September and the calendar is first come. The heavy drop here runs from the middle of October into the first week of November, and the yards that come out clean in spring get touched twice inside that window rather than once at the end.
Tell us what you are trying to do. We will walk the property and put a written number on it.
