I have used their services for a several years -- everything from simple bush trimming -- which is always done perfectly -- to completely re-doing my back yard. They treated the creeping Charlie and laid down nice sod....in addition to creating some really nice flower beds and planting roses and many other varieties of flowers. I will continue to use their services season after season, year after year. Highly recommend!
Description of Work: trimmed bushes and treated crab grass in my garden

Ron is a certified arborist and he really knows his stuff. He is very good about listening to your goals and making suggestions that address thos goals - and even assists in making them more realistic. I have used his services again and again and plan to call him again next spring to follow-up on his suggestions.
Description of Work: Ron trimmed trees to shape them and to accommodate neighbors. He then walked around my porpoerty with me to strategize what to do about other bush issues and plan for next year.

Jm was very easy to work with. I had a birch tree at a rental property that had a large split down the middle that I needed chopped down. He was able to text me a copy of the estimate which was nice because I was out of town. He performed the job when he said he would. I wasn't there when he chopped the trees down, but when I came to look afterward, everything was cleaned up and there was no left over wood or debris after he was finished. He was easy to work with and the most reasonably priced person out there. I had several other estimates that were double the price to chop that tree down, and they didn't include clean up. I am very happy with the service and will most definitely use them again.
Description of Work: Cut down a large birch tree very close to house, and an apple tree and another smaller tree in back of house by garage.

Description of Work: Rejuvenation of a large hedge around the perimeter of the house and removal of a large juniper including stump grinding.... Ron was very prompt and explained exactly what he was going to do and answered all my questions. He gave excellent advise and recommendations based on his vast horticulture knowledge. He worked quickly and efficient. All debris was removed and walkways were cleared. Definitely on my A+ list for sure!

Ron did an excellent job. I contracted him to do the work around my 90 year old aunt's home. I wasn't there to observe but everything was done well and on time.

The result was fantastic. The grass took really well and an ugly, old pile of wood chips is now a nice litle grassy area for the boys Ron's estimate was within dollars of the final amount due. He completed the work as scheduled and did a really good job. I would highly recommend his services.
Description of Work: An area containing wood chips and a small landscape fence was removed. The ground below was tilled, some dirts was replaced, and sod was put in place.

This is the second time I've used Milwaukee Tree and I can't say enough good things about them. The owner, Ron, is the one that came out to do the work and he is beyond knowledgeable about trees, their diseases, and how to care for them. He called me back the same day I called him and arranged to come out a few days after I called to have the two trees removed plus trim another one. I wasn't there personally when Ron arrived but my mother was and he removed the two trees in about an hour. When I came home, I didn't even notice the trees were gone at first because there was absolutely no trace that they had been there (other than the stumps). My mother had to point out to me that they were even gone! There wasn't a single branch, leaf or anything else left - Ron had completely picked up after the trees were removed. I really like Ron and his company because it is very straightforward and Ron does exactly what he says he will and when. I'm going to have him come back to take out the stumps as well (my mother didn't know what I wanted to do with the stumps so she told Ron to just leave them until I called him back).
Description of Work: I contacted Ron at Milwaukee Tree to remove two "nuisance" trees from my yard. One was a p willow bush that grew into a large tree and one was an arbor vitae that also grew into a tree. I also wanted another tree just trimmed so that it wasn't in my power lines.

Tara came out to discuss my needs. I was very impressed with her knowledge and the information she shared with me. I was excited to go to the next step. I was honest with her that after I had set up her appointment I had heard from another individual who I had left a message with and was having one more meeting, but that I liked what she had to say. She said that was not a problem. I agreed to let her know if if decided to go with the other individual. After meeting with the other individual and realizing that I wouldn't have enough information to make a decision without an actual estimate and scope of work, I let Tara know that I really would like to go to the next step. Instead I received a return email stating that she was not interested. I asked for further clarification, since this was very surprising and disappointing. I asked if it was because I was comparing two estimates, and if that was the issue, if I could contact her if the other individual submitted something that didn't meet my needs. I never heard back from her. I feel that Tara is knowledgeable but young and hasn't yet developed a level of professionalism that is needed when you own your own business. I've been out there a long time and I realize that sometimes you have to make a bit of an effort and investment of time to win a longer term trusted relationship We had only had a 15-20 minute discussion and she seems to think that this is all it takes. Hopefully reading this report will help give her some constructive criticism that will enable her to respond in a more professional manner with her next opportunity. After all, businesses are built by word of mouth, and if we had come to terms, she'll never know how much other business she lost on top of mine. As far as the work that she would have done, I guess I can't comment and will never know.
Description of Work: Met to get estimate. She stated work would be under $1,500 and seem to be sensitive to finding ways to stay within a reasonable budget. I graded this a B for price, as I never got a price, but she seemed to be fair in what we were discussing. I never received a formal estimate.

WE HAD 3 ESTIMATES. WE ARE VERY PLEASED WITH MILWAUKEE TREE AND GARDEN. WE ARE HAPPY TO GIVE THEM THE HIGHEST RATING POSSIBLE. THEY ARE CERTIFIED ABORISTS AND OUR TREE LOOKS WONDERFUL. EVERYTHING WE ASKED TO BE DONE, WAS DONE. IT WAS A PLEASURE WATCHING THEM WORK. THE DAY WAS HOT, THEY WASTED NO TIME GETTING STARTED AND DOING EVERYTHING WE ASKED FOR, IN A VERY TIMELY MANNER. CLEAN UP WAS AMAZING. WE DO NOT HESITATE TO RECOMMEND THEM. WE ARE VERY HAPPY WE CHOSE THEM AND WE THINK YOU WILL BE TOO.
Description of Work: WE HAD OUR HONEY LOCUST TREE PRUNED. 2 6" LIMBS OVER HOUSE WERE REMOVED. THE DEADWOOD WAS ALSO REMOVED. THE HUSBAND & WIFE TEAM CHIPPED ALL WOOD, RAKED GRASS AND BLEW ALL DEBRIS FROM YARD AND ROAD. THE AREA WAS LEFT CLEANER THAN IT WAS, WHEN THEY ARRIVED. THEY ALSO REMOVED A DEAD BRANCH FROM ANOTHER TREE ON OUR PROPERTY.

Their estimate was about $250. It was a free estimate. We are probably going to hire them. The person we dealt with came by right away. We liked him and he was good.

I can't tell you how great Rob (the owner) is at his job. Rob had done work for my boss and I was looking for a company to prune my trees which hadn't been done in years. I called Rob and he called me back the same day. He stopped out at my house in Oak Creek within the week and inspected every tree that I had in my yard. His knowledge of trees is incredible and he told me quite a few things that I think every homeowner should know (how to cut/prune, diseases, etc.). Not only did I get an estimate but also answers to questions I'd had for years and finally knowing what kind of trees I had in my yard. I accepted his estimate on the spot and he came back within a week or a week and a half and did all the work in about two or three hours. I was there but Rob didn't really need me as he just went about getting the job done. I had six or seven trees pruned pretty heavily I would say and I had him remove one tree altogether that I didn't want anymore because it was in a bad location. I can definitely tell the difference that the pruning made and I recommend that people have it done. There are a couple of trees that should have been pruned previously to this but weren't. Rob managed to save those and get them up to snuff. Rob also took all the trees and shredded them right away in the tree shredder attached to his truck. Also, after he was done, I couldn't even tell that Rob had been there. There were absolutely no branches, leaves or anything else left on the ground. I also had an extensive flower bed around one of the trees and not a single plant or flower was disturbed. I don't know how he did that because I was fully prepared to have to replace some because they were really in his way.
Description of Work: I had Milwaukee Tree & Garden come out and prune six or seven trees and remove one altogether.

My overall experience with them was excellent. They responded promptly to my inquiry. They were able to work me in within a week. They came when they said they would and cleaned up very nicely. I have no complaints with them.

Ron and Tara have not been teriffic in executing the work but they have been great at helping us plan our landscaping in stages to accommodate our budget and cash-flow. My wife and I were particularly impressed by all of the questions they asked us about how we will use the backyard and then translating that into a design and execution plan that met our specific needs. They were the one contractor we interviewed that took time to understand how we use our yard before giving us a proposal. Every suggestion they had and aspect of their plan was clearly explained as to why they felt it made sense for us. We were also appreciative of their willingness and ability to break the project into stages to accommodate our budget. Finally, their price was great and they did everything promised on schedule. We have already recommended them to several friends (we found out about them from a friend who had had them do work for her) who have also been pleased with their value and quality. Ron and Tara are also both certified arborists and really seem to know their trees and pants (useful when deciding what to keep and plant)
Description of Work: We had a 60' + tall Silver Maple and two 12' high Crab Apple Trees removed ($1500) backyard graded, concrete patio installed and sod laid ($~6500)

Great. They were the one contractor who really took time to ask questiosn about how we planned to use the yard (we have three young children and a large dog) and really listen to what we were trying to accomplish. They were all also very accommodating to our budget constraints and laying out a 2 year plan in stages that made sense for us. Everyone else just came in with what they thought we should have, not necessarily what we wanted or needed.
