Report Attachments
I recently hired Lee Reaves, Jr. (Black River Land and Timber) to clear a drainage ditch on some real estate I own in South Carolina. The project was a 3 day job at most. The first he shows up by himself with a worn out John Deere bull dozier that kept breaking down. He continued to go to Double D Farms in order to have the machine repaired. After two weeks of this I finally asked him to leave. He presented an invoice in the amount of $7000 after doing less than half the work. I had already given him a $3000 draw against his proposal. I have since hired a company out of Columbia. Research shows the Reaves has had numerous business in Clarendon County that have failed to include an equipment rental company as well as a grass cutting business. Court records indicate that he has numerous judgements dating back to early 2000. After talking with local people I found out that he owes back wages and often uses child labor on these jobs. Anyone living in Clarendon County SC or owning real estate needs to be aware of this guy. He is backed financially by Double D Farms, a local mom and pop farming company.

This guy may also be operating as Southern Landscapes. He is listed as an eligible contract or for SCDNR. As noted in the comment from Double D Farms, they do support him. Reaves owes a ton of back wages and pays no workers compensation. If his associates are injured while on your property, you or Double D Farms is leaving.

To the person who who wrote the rip-off report concerning Lee Reaves Jr. I am the Office Manager for Double D Farms and let me assure you that we in no way financially back Lee Reaves, Jr. At times, Mr. Reaves will ask our mechanic who is a former employee of his to repair a piece of his equipment, but being the good neighbors that we are and if he has the time, we allow it. At this time we request that you withdraw our name from your report.
