The work includes timber cruising, appraisals, timber marking, timber sale contracts, and supervision of the harvest. Clearcut, thinning and marked harvests are all offered. It also does forest stewardship and management plans, GPS and GIS mapping, boundary line painting, logging engineering and road design, timber stand improvement, and timber tax basis calculations with tax advice.

He is also a Tree Farm System certified inspector and a member of the Virginia State Hardwood Steering Committee. The business's own rule is "Never sell timber without an appraisal," done by a consulting forester who works for the landowner. This suits a landowner who wants one forester to run the whole sale, from appraisal to replanting, and who wants that forester working for them. From scottsvilleforestry.com, read 23 October 2026.
