Building Dreams

Horrible, Attached are pictures. When I met Benn July 15, 2021. He was working at my neighbor’s house. I asked him to come over when he got a chance. He came over later. I told him , “I need a retaining wall built because my dirt around my piers were being washed away from the runoff of the yard next door when it rains. My yard slopes on that side. I also needed a to close a hole in the corner of my back yard. He stated he was going to go home and come up with something that can help the problem. I agreed to to the contract he made. He started the work July 21, 2021 and completed it July 24, 2021. This was after me calling and texting him. I had given him money to start. I had to leave town a few days after the work was completed. The front looked descent but I never checked under the house. Under the house the work looks like an inexperienced carpenter job without a care. I returned home August 22, 2021 to see an unspeakable sight. Most of the foundation he built was washed away from the bottom of the retaining wall. I immediately called Benn to come bye. He had the nerve to tell me, “I told you it wouldn’t work. I was mad a ****. I would have NEVER agreed to pay for work that a professional contractor say Will Not work. One would be crazy. I hired him because he stated he could build a retaining wall to help me with my problem. Now, he is suggesting a gutter barrier that can help for 1400.00. I made huge mistake hiring Benn. These days it hard to find an honest and descent contractor. Sorry for the long comment. See pictures for yourself.

Benn was a great guy to work with. He always gave the job his all and did extra things without asking to be payed for them. He is a man of his word which is rare to find anymore. He is up to whatever challenge big or small we asked him to do.

The contractor scheduled an appointment with my wife on 29 October 2018. He (Ben Stanford) never arrived. Now I do realize that the contractors have other projects to work and thats fine.... Every needs to work.. The issue that I have is that he never called to say he is running late or that he would like to reschedule. This is the first of two contractors that are highly rated on Angies List and my experience has been they are non-responsive and lack professionalism. I am new to the Shreveport area and I hope other contractors work attitudes are not this way.

Excellent work, would hire again

Fantastic. He was on time for initial appt. We agreed on him doing the job. Later in day he got the materials over to my house and did the job the very next morning.

Great! As expected.

Very efficient, came on time and got the job done quickly

They do great work and are very dependable. They are always on time, very neat, and clean up well after themselves. They can do a lot of different work and do it well. The work is great quality, they double check everything as they go, and they also check back with you a couple weeks later to make sure you are satisfied and make sure there is nothing they need to fix/change. Real good guys.

It went very well and exceeded my expectations.

Quality work in a professional manner. Very knowledgeable in many trades, would definitely hire him again!
