Roy miller backhoe has done multiple projects for me ranging from a new septic system to erosion control in some fields I farm. In my opinion their level of professionalism is unmatched and I will be having them do more projects for me in the future.

- Trent Heathman

Roy Miller Backhoe did all  the site work at our new property north of Emporia. They dug our pond, built the building pad, dug the lagoon, and put our driveway in. They also helped with the electrical, water and sewer utility work. Jesse, Thomas, & Roy were very professional through the entire process.
