    I was extremely pleased with Kevin at VA Forestry Mulching and Excavating. He came out promptly to…read moreprovide an estimate and offered valuable advice on my property. Kevin was very knowledgeable about zoning restrictions and explained how the grading of my land could impact water retention information that was important before removing trees. The final result was excellent. He was punctual, respectful of my property and my neighbor's property line, and even went above and beyond by completing some additional work since the original scope was finished ahead of schedule. I highly recommend Kevin for anyone needing forestry mulching or excavating services.

He walked our entire area with us and thoroughly discussed what he would exactly do. His communication was excellent. He truly cares about doing what is right and best for his customers and the environment. We had gotten several estimates from other companies, and the communication with those companies was severely lacking. Kevin's quote was less than half the price and his work also encompassed cleaning and clearing up significantly more area than what we were quoted from the others. While he was working, he stopped several times to confirm he cleared exactly what we had requested. He also mulched up a large pile of cut branches that we were in the process of disposing of, that was not quoted in our estimate. Kevin was very polite, professional, knowledgeable and thorough. Our experience working with him highly exceeded our expectations. He went above and beyond to ensure we were satisfied. We highly recommend him and would absolutely use him again. The final result is awesome and it is great to have our views back.

There were no delays in service or performance and the end result came out better than I expected. More importantly the job passed inspection and my permits were approved. I would highly recommend J.P. Mercer and if possible I will use them again.

Mercer who did a SUPER JOB!! For them to negatively review J.P. Mercer who has never done work for them because they don't like that they were hired to clear along a fence with all their animals is not right. I hired professional surveyors to survey / stake the property line and I then hired J.P. Mercer to come in and clear the property line around the perimeter (staying on my property) which is within my legal rights AND THEY DID AWESOME! The fact that the clearing was done along a fence which was not damaged and there are animals inside the fence I can't help. It wasn't our intention to bother the animals and surely wasn't intended. Your property is surrounded by a higher fence and gate, we live in the country, we mind our own business and not going around and tell everyone our business the same as I don't expect anyone else to. What you do on your property is your business same as us. JP Mercer did an outstanding job, did exactly what I hired them to do, did a very professional job in a timely manner and I highly recommend them. You shouldn't be mad at them because they were hired to do a job and you don't like clearing behind your property. Hope this clears things up for others.

    I was hoping a negative situation would turn out to be a positive based on how the situation was…read morehandled by the company when notified. This my experience. I had the company come out on 09/20/2025 what an experience not in a good way. As I was leaving, I was shocked to see my entertainment center at the entryway of the complex (broken in parts). It literally fell out of their truck. Of course, in a panic, I frantically park my car to move it the best I could out of the entrance to the complex before any cars tried to leave. I reached out to the team that left and was told they couldn't come back for 45 minutes. I immediately fired off emails stating what happened. My entire day was ruined because I had to stick around to see if the items were going to get picked and I felt the need to drive around to see what else dropped out the truck. No surprise as soon as I finished pulling the entertainment center to the curb and getting back in my car, I turned the corner out of the complex to find a large piece of a computer desk in the middle of the road near the major intersection. I went into another panic because cars were running over the board and I was afraid it might flip to hit someone's car. I again raced to park to see if I could run out into the middle of the road before cars came but the piece was run over several times that it landed in the worse location with the view being blocked by oncoming traffic from the opposite end. I couldn't get a grip on the board because cars were coming so I'm literally in the road trying to kick the board to the side of the road with my foot (yes it was painful). Luckily, one car saw my efforts and stopped. It was not a cool temperature day and I'm no spring chicken (which I'm surprised I didn't have any health issues from the adrenaline, embarrassment, frustration and desperation to move these items). Since I couldn't leave this heavy board on the side of the road, I'm literally trying to carry this wood board back to where the entertainment center fell out the truck (definitely not a short walk). It was exhausting and humiliating to run around and lift items that should've been hauled away given the amount paid for just a few items. I finally was able to speak with a representative who made an offer based on my troubles created by their team. I agreed to the offer from the representative and waited what is more than a reasonable time period (9/22/2025 to12/2/2025) without any luck. While there are things that can happen when the team is working from one job to the next, it is more important how the company handles the issue with the customer that can change how the overall experience is viewed. It makes the difference in showing that a small company stands by it's service and sets it aside from the bigger companies. Unfortunately, I was extremely reasonable even when the worker was going to lose a week of work for the incident. I was completely against this in today's economy and just asked that improved quality standards be in place so it doesn't happen again. I understand the workers are doing this all day so things are going to happen. Again, it's not about what happened during the service as the biggest issues, it's about how it is handled by the company. I do everything I can to support small businesses but I think the more I do the more problems I experience. As someone who wants to extend as much grace as possible, the constant waiting on the USPS at this point is beyond reasonable. Nevertheless, I wish the company the best and hope they take this as a lesson learned to improve how to resolve issues immediately. I didn't expect to be part of the crew that day with having to move my own heavy items out of the street when I paid for someone else to do it.
