Went well, as expected. I signed a contract with Miller's Lawn Service for next year's lawn work.clean-up, mulching, trimming, leaf removal. Mr. Miller is very professional and accommodating. He know his business and tells you truthfully what you need. He's very punctual and accommodating. Any bad reports about him came from residents of the Potomac area, and having dealt with many of them myself, on a small-businees basis, I can tell you that their reports are based on their own arrogance and self- absorbtion. Some of those residents are very nice people, a lot of others think that everyoone exists for their convenience, and treat service providers like indentured servants. My advice is to disregard their reports. Mr. Miller is top quality, as a business man and as a person.

He came over and said he was going to send me an estimate. After a few weeks, I called because I had not received the estimate. He stated that he sent it and that I must have lost it. I checked my email and also my deleted email and it was nowhere to be found. He never sent it.

I called Miller's to get an estimate on regular yard maintenance and initial clean up. I schedule a meeting on a weekend when I was going to have to work and was unable to get back to the house in time. Admittedly, I missed the appt scheduled.However, when I called Miller's to try to apologize for my missing of the meeting an attempt a reschedule my calls went unreturned. I attempted to contact the company multiple times and was never contacted back. Pretty disappointing given the service that other AL members have reported.

Response from MILLER'S LAWN SERVICE
This member as stated did schedule an estimate with our company in July on a Sunday morning at 9 am. As the member stated he was not at home at the scheduled time I waited for my normal 1/2 hour for the customer who never showed up. I called the members cell phone and left a message that I was at his home and left my cell number. When I left I put several cards in his mail box to let him know I had been there. This member did not call to reschedule or even apologize for not calling to cancel or anything. I missed my sons soccer game so I could meet with this member to provide an estimate for him. This member called on Monday 9/28/09 to schedule an estimate and was informed we are not interested in providing an estimate for you. I show up for all scheduled appointments and if for some reason can not be there I call ahead of time to re schedule at the moment I know I will not make it. This member did not call us several times. He called once this past week only. Had this member called and cancelled it would not have been an issue. Or even the next day to simply apologize but to call 3 months later and expect to schedule another appointment with us just isnt going to happen. My time is just as important to me as my customers are to them and I would have preferred not to miss a soccer game with my son than to spend 3 hours driving to and from a potential customers house for them to not be able to give the common curtosy of a call to say something has come up and will not be able to make it. This happens all the time people schedule an appointment and dont remember or simply dont care. Just this monday I had an appointment in Chevy Chase at 8 am and told the member I would be there early because of the crazy traffic in that area. I was there at 7:15 am waited until 8 am to knock on the door and nobody was home. How upset would you be? Upon arriving to my office I received a call at 8:15 am that was from this person who was suppose to meet me at 8 am stating he wanted to cancel. This was the message I received when I got to my office at 9:30. Would you be upset? Would you re schedule? I dont. Joseph A Miller III Miller's Lawn Service

I live in NC, but needed a lawn service to handle some clean-up, trimming and mulching at my rental property in Bethesda. I found Miller's through the list; they responded immediately to my call and were on the job within a matter of days. The work was done quickly and professionally.
Description of Work: They weeded and mulched beds, trimmed bushes, cleaned gutters and removed debris.

High quality service at a good price. I am new to Angie's List and have been using Millers Lawn Service for 5 years and highly recommend him to all my friends and clients (I'm a Real Estate agent). Every year Mr. Miller will meet with me to go over what I need done and set up an annual plan and provide a written estimate. What I really like is that for an annual service package, he let me set up a monthly payment plan so that it's divided into equal installments over the year. I have the payment set on bill pay and I can manage the expense easier because it's the same each month. Great service and super convenient.
Description of Work: Annual Service: spring clean up to include mulching, weeding and pruning, mowing service for the entire year and leaf pick up in the fall. My yard has a lot of landscaping is about 1/3 of an acre.

Response from MILLER'S LAWN SERVICE
As the member stated I arrived at the scheduled time. Spent one hour walking around the property with the potential customer to clearly understand exactly what was expected. In addition to pruning, weeding, edging and mulching the customer also requested an estimate for removal of a couple small plants and trees as well as some re-grading in the backyard. I would have loved to work in this yard. It was a beautiful landscape and I am confident we would have received referrals from this property. As with the scheduled time of the estimate I completed the proposal within 3 days and emailed the customer. We never received any additional contact from the prospective customer. I find it typical not to receive any further contact from potential customers once the proposal is sent unless it is there intention to use our service. I find it typical of most potential customers to contact a couple companies for estimates. I assume if we do not hear back from a potential customer that they chose to use the service of a different company. We show up for all scheduled appointments and complete all estimates in a timely manner. If any other potential customer meets with myself or any member of my staff you will receive your estimate in the time frame we inform you. If you are expecting an estimate and do not receive your estimate in the stated time frame you should call or email our office the day it is expected and request it be re sent. We have a full time administrative assistant who responds to email as well as phone calls Monday - Saturday from 9 am until 4 pm. Very rarely do we receive any contact from potential customers who have chosen a different company to do the work or simply to thank us for our time but decline to use our service. If you contact this company when we show up to do the estimate if we are not interested in doing the work for any reason we will inform you of this at that time. I personally review all email sent and received daily. Our response to our customers is immediate. Miller's Lawn Service Joseph A Miller III

We have been extremely pleased. They did a beautiful job on the clean-up, which took about a day and a half. They have been coming weekly to mow the lawn, weed and tend the beds. They are punctual and professional and everything looks great.
Description of Work: Miller's did our spring clean-up. We have a large yard which had not been well-tended for over a year. They cleaned the beds and the lawn, pruned and mulched. We have contracted with them to do weekly maintenance and our fall clean-up.

They did a great job like they always do. I got them from Angie's List about three years ago and have since used them two to three times a year. They have always been flexible and helpful. They always offer suggestions and don't try to sell you the most expensive thing, they like to just make sure you get what you need. I will continue to use them.
Description of Work: They did all the weeding, mulching and edging in my yard. This was for four acres.

Joe Miller came to my home, looked over the yard work I wanted and told me he would be pleased to do the work. However, my calls to set up an appointment were unanswered. I did receive an e-mail message that my requests were on his desk, but I never got a call back. His crew may do good work, but not responding to my requests to set a date to do the work is unacceptable. He may be over his head. I wasted several weeks trying to get him to do the work because he was highly rated by Angie's list. I should have contacted several firms on the list and gone with someone else when I had trouble getting a response from Miller.

Estimate was given the first day customer requested. The customer called a second time stating she had not received an estimate. I returned the next day and left another estimate in the front door of her home. Received no response from customer. We have several houses in this neighborhood and would have been happy to have hers. Do not know why she did not receive estimate.

I found Joe's company on Angie's List and scheduled an estimate with him a couple days after I first contacted him. He came to my house and spent about 2 hours discussing what I wanted done and how it could be accomplished. I scheduled the job to be done a week after the estimate - Joe was very accommodating when I had to move the day because of a work conflict. The workers all arrived on time and Joe and I went to the nursery to pick out my plants. I wasn't sure it was necessary to actually pick out the plants with him, but it turned out to be very helpful, as we ended up making some substitutions. My front yard looks absolutely beautiful now. The entire job was done in one day and the price was very fair. Joe was helpful and honest, without being patronizing, while his crew was professional and courteous. I hope they'll come do my back yard next year!
Description of Work: Overall landscaping of front garden - removed some trees/shrubs, moved some trees, planted new plants in the garden and moved a bed back about 2 feet to expand the walkway, which they redug and made safer. Also mulched over all the new plant areas

Great! My lawn guy blew my leaves to the curb yesterday and the City of Rockville is not scheduled to pick them up until December. I thought great, but the wind will blow the leaves back into the yard by the time the City sucks them up! I called Miller this morning and he said he could come in the afternoon. They were sucked up by 1:45! Yay!!!

Within minutes after I e-mailed the company, which I found on Angie's List, I received an e-mail response to the effect that I would receive a phone call the next day to set up an appointment with Mr. Miller for an estimate. The call came as promised and we arranged a specific time (no window) for the estimate. Mr. Miller was punctual. He wrote down what I needed for the yard clean-up and said that it would be a week or two. In the meantime, I signed a contract for weekly mowing for the remainder of this season, which began, again as promised, the following week. The operative words for this company are "promptness" and "dependability." May Miller's Lawn Service prosper!
Description of Work: For $500, as promised, Mr. Miller's crew quickly and efficiently cleaned my yard. They weeded, removed poison ivy, trimmed and edged (including paved areas), pulled ivy from the side of the house, and blew clippings from pavement. I also contracted for weekly mowing ($35/week) for the remainder of the season.

I emailed Miller's on a weekend, and immediately received a return email saying I would receive a call on Monday. I did receive said call, and set up a meeting 2 days later for Joseph Miller to come and give me an estimate. He was prompt, professional, and very personable,which was very nice for me. I received the estimate a few days later. The estimate was less than what I expected, and immediately returned the signed contract. A few days later I received an email giving me an estimate of when my work would be done. An email followed that said the work could be performed that day, which was wonderful for me. The crew did more than what was on the contract, with professionalism and kindness.
