Yanton's did an amazing job. We absolutely love our patio and landscaping, and so do our friends and family. We can't keep them away! They were knowledgeable, easy to work with, affordable, and completed the job in a timely manner. We would recommend.

Our experience with Yanton Outdoor Living was wonderful. From the initial design stage to the sanding of the pavers and landscape placement, Chris and his crew were extremely professional. They were on time, worked hard, respectful, and flexible. I would no doubt recommend them to anyone needing landscape or hardscape work done.

Fantastic, absolutely nothing short of amazing. On-time, meticulous, constantly making sure property wasn’t damaged, and exactly what he said he would do! He’s the only one I would use and I would recommend them to anyone!

I can’t believe I didn’t provide a review for the work Yanton’s did. Chris and his team were top notch. Absolutely no complaints, no problems, and he is a fantastic person to work with and he communicates with clarity, timeliness, and in layman’s terms.

All went very well once they started. They started a few weeks later than expected due to rain. Once they started my project, it is the only project they worked on. We had one rainy day but, they completed the work in 7 business days. It looks great (they designed it and I picked out pavers). They really went above and beyond to put the work area back as it was. They greatly improved the slope of the yard (it was allowing water to pool up by the house). They had an eye for detail and improving some drainage issues and critters. I was very comfortable with the work crew. They were careful with the prep work and, I expect the new patio/deck to last a long while without issues.

We got a 350 paver patio, firepit and seat wall in our back yard. We also had Chris and team fill in an empty area with weed barrier and creek jack (stone). We signed in July, and was told the calendar had us pointing to an October installation. With a very rainy fall, Chris's team kept getting delayed, but Chris did a great job communicating and discussing status with us. Winter arrived, and we didn't get installed until March, but again, Chris kept us in the loop, and I can't really blame him for the weather. Chris has a large backlog of work because of the quality, care, and craftsmanship of his work. He went above and beyond (adjusted some gutters for us, as well as added a pad of concrete at the bottom of our deck stairs to ensure we were setup correctly). If you want a paver patio, walkway, retaining walls, etc.. done right the first time, call Yanton's, they will do it right. We couldn't be more pleased with the patio.

Chris and his team were very professional. They were hard-working and efficient and when faced with a setback, hustled to resolve it and finish on time. Cleanup was well done including reparations to my lawn where needed. The finished product looks great and is just as I had requested. I highly recommend Yanton's and will definitely be hiring them for my future hardscaping projects.

Chris and his team did an awesome job! The outcome was better than I pictured when I hired them. I had 6 contractors quote the project; there were a couple that came in cheaper but didn't have the credentials that Yanton's did. There was a wait to get the project started, but I think that is because of Yanton's reputation, putting them in high demand. The overall project took about 5 days, and they stayed very busy the whole time and took care to not destroy the rest of my yard or belongings. Chris was very honest when making suggestions in regards to quality, looks and costs. I would definitely rehire and recommend.

We were so happy with how our project turned out. Chris did a great job of explaining every step of the process as well as background information on the techniques he uses to ensure the highest quality result. Turnaround time was great, and the cost was very competitive.

We could not be happier with Yanton's Outdoor Living.  We love our new backyard, it is a complete transformation! Chris is a very professional contractor and a pleasure to work with.  He was incredibly resourceful and patient when it came to picking all the materials.  His attention to detail is top notch.  His crew was all very professional.  We received compliments from our neighbors about their work ethic. We would use Yanton's again in a heartbeat.

Chris and his crew did an awesome job.  From the first time I met him, I knew he was someone I would want to work with.  His professionalism and his pride in his work is what sets him apart from most contractors.  Don't waste time with the other options. 
You will get quality from Yanton's!

Chris was awesome, easily the best contractor I have worked with, this is the 2nd job I have done with him and he has been nothing but professional, responsive and does great work. HIs pricing has always been very competitive if not the lowest and the work is 2nd to none. The guys on his crew are fantastic workers and are very friendly and professional as well. He did a paver patio for me last summer and I know almost the entire crew was the same this time as they were for the last job so that tells you how good they are and how good he is to employees.


Don't waste your time getting dozens of quotes for outdoor jobs, just call Chris at Yanton's.

.Chris came and evaluated our project he was very detail oriented. After getting his estimate we decided his company was right for us.They started the job running they layed down sheets of plywood to protect our lawn. Everything he promised they would do was done to perfection, they cleaned up our yard and driveway everything looks wonderful !!! We would definitely use them again.

Chris Yanton was easy to reach and very easy and professional to work with.  He answered all of my questions and showed me plenty of options, explaining the pros and cons of each.  The crew arrived when they were scheduled and worked hard.  They cleaned up thoroughly when they were done.
This was just the sort of experience I want when I have home improvement work done.  I was very pleased with the quality of the work and pleasantly surprised when they went above and beyond when finishing.
I highly recommend Yanton's for outdoor work, and I would use them again.

I called Yanton?s for an estimate to extend the walkway/create a new patio are on an existing paver job.  Chris showed up, and we discussed the details of the job to be completed.  Chris is a consummate professional, he explained he would do the project anyway I wanted, but wanted me to reconsider a change in the plan.  After he took the time to show me the flaw in my original idea, and explained the benefits of changing the plan, the steps he would take to ensure the existing layout and materials would match as best as he could possibly do.  Based on Chris? years of experience,  passion for his craft and very reasonable estimate, I decided to go with Yanton?s.   When Chris? crew actually showed up to begin the project half a day early, and went right to work.  They worked together  like a well-oiled machine,  as they begun the site prep, it was obvious to tell this was not their first job.  When I got home from work (being surprised the job had started) the crew took the time to explain what they were doing,  and the steps for the remainder of the project.  I?ve been around a lot of tradesmen and crews, and this one by far was the most polite, enthusiastic and professional I?ve seen to date.  They left nothing to chance as they laid the pavers in place, using a schematic to match the pattern and custom cutting the pavers for an exact match.  The area around a window well, was never discussed, yet Chris and his crew dressed up an otherwise mundane feature with a custom cut soldier course brings life that that area of the patio.  Chris estimated the job taking 4 days, and was finished in 2 ½.  Chris also went above and beyond, ensuring plywood was placed on grassy areas to drive the bobcat across, and they even raked the grass back to at ?standing? position when the plywood came up at the end of the job.  Another impressive clean up service, power washing the driveway!  Chris and his crew went to extraordinary lengths to ensure the property was better than when they arrived.  They are truly artists in the their craft.   If you are wanting/needing hardscape work done, look no further than Yanton's Outdoor Living!
