Jarrett Wilkes/ArborServe has completed several major projects on our historic estate located in Forest, Virginia. Jarrett has been performing work on the property for +15 years, first for my in-laws before my wife inherited the home and adjoining farm 8 years ago. There are 46 historic trees in our front yard alone of which Jarrett has taken great care removing unnecessary limbs which could fall off in a heavy storm. He has cleared unnecessary heavy brush and nuisance trees along 1,000 feet of fences thereby improving both the view and physical appearance of the property. Excellent and frequent communications keeping us informed is part of his overall great service. We highly recommend Jarrett for his "hands-on" work: he just doesn't quote the job — he is actively engaged in performing the work as well! — Justin McCarthy, 2026
Jarrett does awesome work! And not just on trees we are super thankful to have someone to call with different kinds of equipment to come out and help us with an assortment of projects anything from trail clearing to creek crossings and chopping up trees. — Dash Airsoft, 2026
Great experience overall. Mr. Wilkes issued a professional estimate after looking at the project. Showed up when he said he would and did excellent work. Highly recommend for any land clearing needs. — Taylor Fender, 2026
This is a company that delivers exactly what they promise! On time, very responsive, reasonably priced! Will be using Jarrett for all my mulching and land clearing needs. — Watts Property Management, 2026
Jarrett and his crew at AborServe were suggested to get a quote from when a sudden tree problem arose on my property this year. My phone call to him was promptly returned with a time for us to meet and go over what needed to be done. His quote was very affordable and he had me scheduled in a short time to get the job on its way. I will not hesitate to call on Jarrett/ArborServe LLC for future needs and will highly recommend his company going forward. Thanks for your hard work Jarrett! — Richard Campbell, 2026
ArborServe introduced us to the concept of forestry mulching and did a tremendous job preparing our future homesite. All of the undergrowth and small trees were carefully removed, leaving us with healthy mature trees and a beautiful canopy. We are now able to better visualize the site ahead of construction and, with Jarret's guidance, ensure that the building process will not damage the roots of the trees immediately around the house. The work was done with care and great attention to detail, and we look forward to working with ArborServe on this and other projects on our land. — Aaron Mahler, 2026

I feel no need to find another tree guy. We have two gigantic willow oaks that needed deadwood removed. They are excellent about explaining what needs to be done and are patient when I have to ask multiple questions to understand. They were on time, efficient, and a pleasure to talk to. I highly recommend them. — Stuart Twery, 2025
