Benson’s Lawn and Landscaping

What Benson’s Lawn and Landscaping does

Benson's Lawn and Landscaping is a privately held, family-owned outdoor services company headquartered at 4416 W 93rd Street in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. The company is owned and operated by Adam and Samantha Benson and operates with approximately 5 employees, serving residential homeowners and commercial businesses across the Sioux Falls metropolitan area and surrounding communities. Its service portfolio spans more than a dozen categories, including weekly lawn maintenance, five-application seasonal fertilizer and weed control programs, landscaping and hardscaping (paver patios, retaining walls, rock beds, block walls), concrete curbing, landscape bed maintenance, certified arborist tree services (trimming, removal, stump grinding, injections), snow removal, perimeter pest control, spring and fall cleanups, rough cut mowing for rural lots, full irrigation services (startup, blowout, maintenance, repairs), overseeding, and specialized lawn disease treatment for conditions such as Summer Patch, Brown Patch, and Dollar Spot.

The business is labor- and equipment-based rather than technology-based: no proprietary software, AI/ML, or platform architecture is disclosed, and the technology footprint is limited to a WordPress website with an instant fertilization quote tool, a third-party client billing portal, and a Facebook organic presence. Revenue is generated through project-based and recurring service contracts priced via phone-based custom quoting and the website's self-serve fertilization quote tool; no pricing is publicly listed. The company holds regulated credentials that gate parts of its addressable market — Sioux Falls Arborist License #442, South Dakota Commercial Applicator License 50862 (categories G and 4), and South Dakota Plumbing Commission Permit #27UII — which allow it to legally perform tree injections, commercial pesticide application, and irrigation plumbing work that unlicensed operators cannot. Go-to-market is sales-led and localized: direct phone outreach (605-929-7668), website quote requests, and earned media coverage on KELOLAND, with no institutional funding, parent company, or external equity backing disclosed.
