York River Forestry Services

Alex is an incredibly conscientious, meticulous, ethical, patient and articulate business owner and service provider. He was able to offer his excavator services in a waterfront erosion emergency situation to save an outbuilding near a shoreline. He was also very helpful with advice about the planting of trees and shrubs to help mitigate the erosion situation. I would highly recommend York River Forestry Services to any landowner.

I called Alex Marcantonio for advice and insight regarding the R.P.F career pathway. He was knowledgeable, honest and generous enough to lend me 40 minutes of his personal time. The conversation was thought provoking and from what I gathered, I would consider him a stand-up guy.

York River Forestry Services prepared a 10 year managed forest plan for our property in support of a Managed Forest Tax Incentive Program application. Alex took the time to walk the property with us, explaining the composition and make up of the forest. Alex provided us with some practical advice on how to get the most out of and care for our forest lot. It was clear that Alex is a knowledgeable and professional Forester and is passionate about sharing his love for the forest with his clients. Alex provided prompt responses to emailed inquiries. The fee charged for York River Forestry Services was competitive in comparison with other options that were considered. It was a pleasure working with Alex. I am happy to recommend his services for anyone in search of a Forester.

When Alex walked with us on our land, he did not rush the process. He took extensive time in identifying the different species of trees and he had valuable advice on how to improve our Woodlot. As an added bonus, Alex gave us amazing advice on our beekeeping and maple syrup hobbies. Alex is knowledgeable, professional and enthusiastic . He submitted the Managed Forest application in a timely manner. We would highly recommend Alex.

Alex spent several hours with us reviewing our Woodlot identifying both good things and areas where management could be improved. He is very knowledgeable on plant species, diseases and site features and seems to enjoy being in the bush sharing his expertise. Alex helped us develop a management plan for our pine plantation and we look forward to working with him in the future.
