DO NOT USE THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT THE COMMUNITY. The city of Tallahassee has had the corner of Tamarack Ave & Crestwood closed for construction which has been ongoing for several weeks. The city notified us well in advance of the construction and timeline for completion. This project restricted us to only access to our home from Redbud & Tamarack. Today Miller tree service blocked access to my home from Redbud & Tamarack with a large crane blocking the entire street. When I asked for the boss I was directed to the man in the crane. At first, he just ignored me, I continued to shout until he opened his door. I told him he was blocking access to my home. He stated he would be done when he got done, he was trying. He then closed the door! Without providing any estimate of when he would unblock the public street. Miller Tree Service blocked the Public street. As a resident on this street we were not informed by Miller Tree Service of any blockage would occur or any blockage had been permitted. This would have allowed us to schedule or day around the need for our neighbors to maintain their trees without unduly inconveniencing their neighbors. DO NOT USE THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT THE COMMUNITY.

Response from Miller Tree Service
Hi Mr. [Member Name Removed], we are very sorry to have inconvenienced you during our tree work. To be clear, you were not our customer, only a disgruntled neighbor inconvenienced by our equipment in the road to do a job for your neighbor. We have taken the time to gather all of the information from neighbors and our employees before responding. As you can see from our previous reviews, we do not get many bad ones because we take great pride in our work and our service. We did have our crane in your street but there was plenty of room for anyone to drive around our crane. We also had cones up and people directing cars around the crane. We did have to move the crane once and it did temporarily block your driveway for about 10 minutes. It just happened to be then when you pulled up. By all accounts, you came at our employees with a bad attitude and were yelling and cussing at our guys. You may have been given a rude reply because of this and I apologize on our end for not keeping our composure. We received no other complaints from any neighbors and feel like this is a very isolated incident. Interestingly, we received no phone call from you to discuss this matter or try to work it out. It appears you decided the best way to handle this was to bad mouth a reputable business on a public forum. If you need to discuss this further, please call our office.

Work crew was excellent. Job was done very efficiently, despite equipment breakdowns. No complaints until.........on 9/7/18 I spoke w/"Angie" who works, I guess in the office. We discussed my Senior Citizen Discount as was posted on Miller's ad on "Angie's List". She agreed that, although her company did not post this 5% discount, after putting me on hold for a minute or so, she said "they" would honor this discount, in the amount of $175 off my $3500 bill. She then sent me an invoice for $3500 w/NO mention of the posted discount. I received this invoice today 9/10/18. I will mail to you by certified post a check for $3325 AS WE AGREED, and I would ask that you note my account is Paid In Full. I have an excellent credit rating & I don't want it to be destroyed by a woman who didn't have the courtesy to say "good-by" & slammed the phone down as I was speaking to her. The 5% Senior Discount is still being posted this date. If I need tree service in the future, I would hire them, but I won't deal with rude Angie.

Response from Miller Tree Service
Hi Ms [Member Name Removed], thanks for taking the time to reach back out to us. We apologize for the confusion and misunderstanding. She was not aware of the 5% discount. Angie is one of the sweetest people in the world and we have never had any complaints about her from anyone. I am sorry you experienced this from our team. Please don't let a wonderful experience at your home from our work crew be degraded to an F on professionalism and a C for overall performance by this minor misunderstanding. We will obviously honor your discount so there is no worry about a credit rating. Please call me personally if you would like to discuss further. We appreciate your business. 850-566-3881.

They arrived when they said they would. They were very careful bringing equipment on the property. They removed the tree fairly quickly, without doing any damage to the surrounding vegetation or my neighbor’s fence. When the tree was down they removed all parts of the tree and cleaned up all the debris the removable had caused.
Description of Work: Remove 100 foot plus pine tree that had been struck by lightning next to my neighbor’s fence.

Ryan took the lead at the start of the day with Shane wrapping it up the end of the day. Very professional and personable crew. Took precaution to minimize damage from their large equipment while maneuvering throughout the yard. One crew attacked the large trees while another took to the tree trimming around the perimeter of the lawn. Meanwhile the tractor went between the two crews picking up debris and taking to the street ready for the debris truck to collect the debris and take to the landfill. The large tree stump was grounded up by another crew toward the end of the day while the other crews did final clean up of work area. I would hire them again.

I had asked Miller's to try and get everything done in the week before Christmas since our young grandson would be down from New York and a large damaged pine limb hung directly over the swing set in our back yard. Miller's did an excellent job on all of the work, working around a lengthy rain shower to get everything done in one day even though they had to pull several workers from other jobs to accomplish this. Our grandson had a great time on the swings! This is my second time using Miller's and I'm sure I'll use them again in the future. They do a great job for a fair price, are professional, and keep the customer informed every step of the way.
Description of Work: One small tree removed; several large limbs from water oaks removed; one limb from Japanese Oak removed, several damaged limbs from two tall pine trees removed; a total a six limbs from two trees overhanging neighbor's house were removed; numerous lower limbs from several magnolia trees removed. All debris was removed from yard.

Extremely professional, knowledgeable, and congenial group. Promptly provided the requested estimate and did the work on schedule. Competitive pricing for first rate work and not one twig was left in my yard when they were done. Excellent communication - very helpful (and patient!) in addressing my questions and concerns. Clay and his group are wonderful, and so are the office staff. Great choice on my part and highly recommend.

I contracted with Miller's to have several pine and oak trees (total 10) removed and several other trees pruned to raise the canopy over my drive. Clay Culpepper was very timely in contacting me after my initial request for an estimate (unlike many others). He listened closely to what I was looking to achieve and was very willing to working within my budget to ensure I was able to accomplish my goals - even if it required splitting the project into multiple visits. As we are in hurricane season, the area tree services, including Miller's, were quite busy. Clay informed me that it would likely be 6-7 weeks before they could address my project. Fortunately, a cancellation allowed Miller's to fit us in within two weeks of the estimate, which was very helpful since two other projects (roof and driveway replacements) both hinged on the removal of the trees. Miller's showed up precisely on schedule and worked continuously to complete the job. The entire team worked together like a well-oiled machine and with the utmost caution for my property and themselves. The team was friendly and seemed genuinely interested in ensuring that I was completely satisfied with each phase of the project. Once complete, with exception of a few mounds of wood chippings from the stump grinding and the much better looking yard, there was no evidence that anyone had been onsite, let alone with large heavy equipment. I would gladly recommend Miller's to anyone in need of tree removal or pruning. An excellent team and excellent price!

They were on time covered the yard with ply wood, cut them down, and cleaned up in two hours. They not only clean the yard but blew the roof off. Everyone was friendly, knowledgeable, hard working, and made sure it was done to my satisfactory. It looks like they were never there. Amazing group of guys. I will have them back.

There were several homes in our area that had trees down from a recent storm. Millers arrived exactly when they said they would and proceeded to methodically work each individual property paying close attention to each cut and subsequent removal of all debris. The crew was very professional and friendly. Cleanup was excellent. They left our property looking better than they found it , Very pleased with service.

These guys are pros! We had an oak tree that had partially uprooted from a storm and called them. The price was competitive, but they came with a crane, a lift and a front end loader. Had the tree down and removed from the property in about 2 1/2 hours. We watched in awe at how quickly and professionally they did their work. They came the next day and did stump group nod get and even did extra stumps at no extra charge! You can bet I'll be a repeat customer next time I need tree work!

I have to give a huge shout-out for Miller's Tree Service. They did an amazing job for us yesterday. The crew went above and beyond by cutting and stacking logs for firewood and cleaned up a couple of old stumps in the yard on their own initiative. The supervisor (Joe) even offered to show us how to hand-sharpen chainsaws, then sharpened my Husqvarna Rancher 450! He also gave us some tips on taking down trees (we have 8 acres, mostly with trees). The team worked hard and wasted no time. With the very old red oak next to our house, they had to use a crane. Each limb that was attached to the crane was perfectly balanced when it was separated from the tree. It was clear that the crew had a lot of experience; there was no yelling or barking out commands. Under Joe's leadership, everyone knew what to do and did it. They also took no risks; if a cut didn't look right they backed off and took a different approach. They clearly earned their pay. At the end of the day when they were removing the stump grind debris, one of the stumps had a few roots above the ground after the debris was removed. The supervisor promised to get the stump grinder back out and he (Brian) was here first thing the next day and finished it. He was very apologetic for not getting it all the day before but given how large the stump was and the amount of debris it generated it was completely understandable. Not to mention Brian had an awesome attitude and was a pleasure to talk to. I also want to say how great the dozer driver (Greg) did. He clearly had a lot of experience, was enthusiastic about his job, and made sure we were happy with the firewood stack and the clean-up. I wished I could post pictures. Next year I have a few more large trees that have to go and I will be calling on Miller's.
Description of Work: Removed a large red oak that was a few feet from the house and two other oaks and a hickory that were also close to the house. They also ground stumps and did clean-up, to include blowing all debris from the roof.

Clay Culpepper had an excellent email communication skills and was able to confirm dates and services with a very quick turn around time. He kept me posted regularly. We set a date and Clay and his crew were there on time and finished by 5pm. Our jungle yard was left impeccably clean and all the debris had been removed. Our neighbor was even taking pictures in delight over the difference in the clean property after the job was completed. We were completely satisfied and think Miller Tree Service deserves rave reviews!

I initially contacted Miller's Tree Service via Angie's list. After not hearing back I called them. They were very apologetic for missing my web-submitted inquiry. They were very cooperative in having someone come out that afternoon to take a look. Clay was right on time. He surveyed the situation, explained what he would need to do and then provided a written estimate before leaving. Though his estimate was reasonable and in line with the others I had received it involved using a crane. I did not want to deal with the hassles of dealing with the city's utilities department (been there before) so I chose a different service. I would consider using Miller's Tree Service in the future.

We asked them to do tree service around the lot of our house, beginning with a very large oak overhanging our house that needed cutting back. This necessitated getting a crane onto our lawn, so we delayed the service until they could free up a crane that would do minimal damage. This was worth waiting for, as there is no detectable damage to the lawn from having a large piece of equipment on it, and we appreciate that care. They also cut back a number of crepe myrtles, cut back vines growing on a number of trees, cut back a vibernum hedge, and removed a dead tree (doing so without leaving a stump, which is good). The yard was far tidier when they left than when they arrived. They were careful to keep detritus out of the pool and otherwise did a first-class and professional job. Not only would we hire them again for tree service, but apparently they do lawn service and landscaping as well, and based on the work they did on the trees, we are going to see about having them do those for us as well.

I could not have asked for better service than Miller Tree Service. They were all very professional, knew exactly what they were doing and did the job efficiently and safely. The crew went above and beyond to be sure the area was cleaned up to my satisfaction and all debris was hauled off. Not only were they the BEST PRICE, they were THE BEST at what they do. I will use them anytime I have tree work to be done. Thank you MILLER TREE SERVICE for a job well done?.and a very happy customer.
