WHAT OTHERS SAY:

"Benton recently completed a retaining wall, drainage, patio and new deck for us. We couldn't be

more pleased with their work. Everything from the quality of their work, to their professionalism was

great. If we had questions, they are easily accessible and ready to take care of any potential issue

promptly. We would highly recommend Benton Outdoor Living for any project." - Melissa Escudero

"We were skeptical. We had a bad experience with a contractor a few years back. Then, two

different landscape design companies no-showed for appointments to talk about our project. We had

postponed and hemmed and hawed for years about turning our nice-sized backyard into space we

could really use.

"We were relieved when Seth from Benton Outdoor Living started talking. Actually, he mostly

listened. He really listened. Seth did an amazing job of capturing our have-to-haves and nice-to-

haves, and helping us design a hardscape that could grow with our family. The design service and

3D imaging really helped us envision our space in brand new ways.

"We were surprised at how painless the construction process was. We expected Seth to disappear

after the contract was signed, but he was on-site and actively involved the entire time. He and the

owner, John Benton, kept us informed about the progress and offered “good, better, best” options

when we needed to make design decisions. The process was stress-free because of Benton’s fixed-

price contracting. We didn’t have to worry about “surprise” costs popping up throughout the project.

"We were in love when we first saw our new yard. In some ways, it felt like a brand new yard. In

other ways, the structures flowed so naturally that it felt like they had always been there. The result

is even better than the 3D designs predicted. Charlotte experienced record rains just a few weeks

after our project was finished. Our yard drained better than it ever had before, and our new paths,

walls and stairs looked even more natural and beautiful after the storms.

"We are sorry. We’re sorry we didn’t contact Benton sooner and have this beautiful yard years ago.

We are having them back in a few months to continue their great work on our home. We highly

recommend Benton Outdoor Living. It’s okay if you’re a skeptic, a procrastinator, or just nervous:

you’ll become a believer, too." - Anna Vordermark

"For the first time in a long time, I was very pleased with a construction company. I was referred to

Benton Outdoor Living. In the past, my construction experiences have been less than pleasurable---

delays, run overs, missed appointments. No so this time. We put in a paved pool area with an

outdoor covered kitchen, fencing, garage, driveway, pergola, paver walkways and landscaping. I

was amazed at the short time table I was given, and a little skeptical. Benton came in on time and on

budget. We even made some major change orders which were not a problem. More importantly, it

was effortless. I have daughters and a pool, and I was concerned with workers, schedules, etc.

Benton made it effortless and kept my entire family happy during the entire process. Will use again

and I highly recommend. Seth and John were a pleasure to deal and reliable--and they got grass to

grow where we had never been able." - Craig W.
