DMC Outdoor Living

Where do I begin? DMC Outdoor Living company has been an absolute pleas to work with. This company has truly been a blessing to our family and our pool needs! This company came in and did a spectacular job in time and with professionalism daily. Mr. David Brakebill (owner) and his supervisor, Brad have worked with us throughout the entire process, always explaining every step of the way. Before any job was performed, the explanation came first. They were so wonderful in helping out with any pool/paver needs. We were truly new to all of this, but with David help, it was the best experience we have ever had with a contractor. One can understand that contractors sometimes do not say what they are going to do, but DMC OUTDOOR LIVING COMPANY proves that to be wrong. They always came out at the time they said they would be there and always explained the details of the job that day. The place now looks like it came out of a magazine. The most beautiful backyard you’ll ever see, thanks to Mr. David Brakebill (owner) and his team. If I could give this company a 10-stars, this company deserves just that! Also, understand that David and his team came in after the pool was installed and installed all of the pavers, did all of the landscaping, the rock wall, not to mention all of the trees, mulching and over 60 flowers! This company does it all.

I will hire this company again in the future and will always recommend them to anyone who needs their backyard to look like it came out of a magazine.

We had a large herringbone paver patio installed by DMC. They were very competitively priced and worked quickly. The job was done professionally and looks great!

DMC Outdoor Living did a great job. They showed up on time and did the work quickly and with great care. They left the jobsite clean. I will definitely work with them again on my next project.

Very well! It took a while to get to us due to the weather and such, but they did, and the work was excellent. The estimate we got was fair and itemized, and everything done as described. David made sure all was done right before we gave final payment. Thank you!

They are very well organized and professional. They hey communicate well. The project looks great.

Terribly. Job wasn’t finished by him or the pool contractor who hired him. Poor job, no craftsman shop to their work. Used crap materials and the coping is already popping off the side of our spa. This job is having to be completely redone a professional. Avoid using at all cost. Said he would come back multiple times to finish work he was paid for and never did.

Do not let David install a lawn sprinkler system at your house if you are served by First Utility District. Our water was nearly turned off and we had to get an extension so that another contractor could fix his non-compliance. He promised to fix the problem but never showed up. First Utility District requires the back flow preventer be installed within 5 feet of the water meter.

Amanda is a pleasure to work with and has great ideas!

David and his team helped me fix a poorly executed pond from a previous contractor and actually helped realize my vision for the backyard. David is a true artist and also a master at executing his vision. The space is finally what I wanted it to be and he and his team are going to help me keep it healthy and beautiful for years to come. You will not find a better and more trustworthy individual, company and team. I will use them for all my needs from now on. Thanks David!

Dave and his crew were a pleasure to work with. They kept me advised on a daily basis about the work to be done. Dave goes above and beyond to make things right. His team has ingenious ways to cover small gaps and small stone cuts that make the paving look great. I was pleased with their work and hired them again to build a courtyard near the pool!

DMC TO THE RESCUE! When our pool company lost their paver guy, we were beginning to become frustrated with the pool installation process. David and his crew stepped in and in a few short days, transformed our “mess” into a BEAUTIFUL OUTDOOR OASIS! They showed up early, were polite, professional in their work, attentive to my requests, did a great job and cleaned up when the job was completed. Thanks, David!

David did an excellent job. We feel we got an exceptional value for our pool, waterfall, firewood, paver and stone step project.

David and his team at DMC Outdoor living did a great job with our pool, pavers and landscaping/irrigation. Really did a great job working with us on design, plants and issues to think about.

DMC was the most reliable professionals who took time to get my idea outdoor area looking as I envisioned. The quality of work is outstanding. I will definitely be a repeat customer.

I recently had the pleasure of working with DMC Outdoor Living for my pool pavers and retaining wall installation. From start to finish they were professional, skilled, communicated often, and extremely detail oriented. Their commitment to customer satisfaction was evident throughout the entire project and the finished result far exceeded my expectations. I am honestly beyond thrilled with every single thing they have done on my job. I highly recommend Dave and his team at DMC for any paver, retaining wall, or stone fireplace needs that you may have. I will definitely be using them again for 2 more outdoor additions this fall and next spring.

Hired David Brakebill to do a new construction landscaping project based on the recommendation of my builder. He quoted me a price which we agreed on and asked for a deposit check to buy materials. I paid him 10K. He initially came onsite to begin the work. Unfortunately, he only completed about 5% of the total project and never came back to finish over a number of months. He took my money and never came to finish the job. I am currently suing him in small claims court. In the process of doing that, I have learned this is a common M.O for him. He will agree to do jobs and ask for deposits to buy materials, do a little work but never come back to complete...then when he gets sued, he loses, files bankruptcy and start all over again with a new company name. Check the BBB for him...look at the negative reviews on here....its clear this is how this man operates. Updated 1/22/25 UPDATE from previous review dated 7/24: Mr. Brakebill indicated in his response that there are two sides to a story. He is correct. One of the sides is the correct side. In this case, no one has to take my word for it. The Civil Court of Sevier County awarded a judgement in the case for all monies requested. Case # 24-C-111736. Additionally, consider Mr. Brakesbill's own words...in this email dated 4/2024: I never thought I would walk away from this .I know I owe you and the few post you have seen don't represent who I am I had an extremely bad time in 2023 not your vault or problem .I have ever intention of refunding your **** dollars I was already hoping to have it too I've been waiting on a check a guy owes me for like 2 weeks now as soon as I have it I'll get you some money .but didn't matter if you've filed suit I'll get you paid before we ever go to court To date, I have not received any refund from this crook. Beware....this is not an honest person!.

It went very well. The crew was knowledgeable and proficient. There was good communication and everything was completed in a timely manner. The finished product is beautiful.

David was very detailed in his assessment of what needed to be done to solve our issues with proper drainage. We had 3 other estimates with only one of those competitive with David’s price. We decided to go with David because his solution was the least intrusive to the property as a whole while solving the drainage issues. Overall, the professionalism of David and his team along with the excellent results of their work would give me good reason to recommend DMC Outdoor Living to anyone wanting a solid job completed by a competent work group.

This was my second major project with DMC. Already knew from experience, it would turn out great. It exceeded my expectations. David is extremely knowledgeable in his field. Cannot believe this is same yard! Highly recommend!

I’m so happy with the job that David Brakebill and his team did at our home. We had masonry work that need to be done in a very precise and detailed way. They did a great job finishing the project. It looks fantastic and I’m already looking to them to do another project for us, I would encourage anybody who needs trustworthy, communicative and reliable work done David Brakebill, and his team other ones for you.

David is Excellent! His team did a phenomenal job on our pavers and patio. David took complete ownership of the job, finished on time, with excellent quality product. He is very professional and took personal care from start to end. Highly recommended.

He never completed, he never started. He just delivered a fiberglass pool shell. He had taken a $71,000 of money and never contacted me other than filing bankruptcy. DO NOT USE THIS CONTRACTOR!

Materials were delivered on time. David and his crew showed up on time. The work was excellent. Work was done and site cleaned up in 3 days. I would highly recommend. I have already contracted to have David come back next spring for another project.

Worked with us to integrate our thoughts with other ideas to spruce up the front yard. (Curb appeal) Everything went very well, all ideas were presented to be agreed upon before plants were installed into the ground. Some landscapers don't understand this. DMC does! When finished, it looked even better than the vision we had pictured in our mind. Thank you DMC and staff!
