About Us
A Family-Owned Business . . .
Richard’s Landscaping & Tree Service is owned and operated by Richard Boyette Sr. and his son, Richard Jr. Richard Sr. is a retired member of the U.S. Army, and is a disabled veteran. He got his start in landscaping while working at Fort Lee, where he managed maintenance and groundskeeping for the base. The idea for his own landscaping business evolved from there, and in 1980, Richard Sr. started Richard’s Landscaping & Tree Service.
Richard Jr. has been with the company his entire life. He was always helping out. In his younger days, he would chop trees for firewood for the family woodstove; today, Richard Jr. is a principal member of the Richard’s Landscaping & Tree Service team.
. . . Where We Will Treat Your Lawn As If It Were Our Own
At Richard’s Landscaping & Tree Service, our lawn care and customer care are second to none. Our business is built upon the promise to treat your lawn as we treat ours. To us, the little details matter. No job is considered complete until twigs, grass clippings and other debris are cleared from a work site.
Richard’s Landscaping & Tree Service will not take a job just to “make a buck.” We want to do the right job at the right time, so the best results are achieved for your property. Oftentimes, people call us in the summer to trim a tree for them. We ask to wait until the winter to do so, as tree trimming during the summer can kill the tree. We always explain our reasoning; ultimately, we strive to educate our customers and do the right thing by them.
Most of our business comes from repeat clients and client referrals. We are honored—and proud—that we continue to receive phone calls from loyal individuals, families and businesses, and that word of mouth continues to grow our customer base.
We would appreciate the chance to work with you. Please call us today at 804-541-1160 or submit a request for an estimate, and let Richard’s Landscaping & Tree Service know how we can help.
