Years of Experience

Our Team

We wouldn’t be successful without our experienced and talented team.

Jerry Lee Benton

Owner & Founder

This resident dreamer and farmer-at-heart is truly a jack of all trades. With his many hobbies, such as cooking/grilling, vegetable gardening, ATV or motorcycle riding, fishing, rock climbing… the list goes on- it is said that nothing beats spending good quality time with his family and friends.

Jeff Hutton

Estimating & Operations Manager

Every team needs a numbers guy. Getting a class clown built into that is just a bonus that we cherish in Jeff. From initial meetings on site with clients, to estimating, to overseeing smooth daily operations, Jeff can and will do it all. If there's ever a (highly unlikely) dull moment, you can ask him about fishing, his family, boating, or camping.

Mike Miller

Project Manager, Lead Carpenter

With 25 years of experience, and 11 of them being with JLBC, Mike has become not only a tile expert but tile enthusiast. His attention to detail serves greatly for kitchen and bathroom remodels but is undeniable in all facets of a project. When not on a job site, Mike is likely in the woods or with his kids (or if he’s lucky, both!).

Alix Benton

Client Success & Internal Operations Manager

Alix specializes in innovating and implementing JLBC’s processes and procedures, as well as helps guide clients through their unique set of project steps. Outside of the office, Alix has her hands full with her Fiancé, 3 boys, 4 pets, and endless activities!

Chuck Pursell

Carpenter

Because of Chuck’s enthusiasm for learning and honing his skills, he has been a proud asset to the team for just over 2 years. Outside of work, our fun-loving carpenter can be spotted somewhere in his 75’ El Camino or cruising on his motorcycle.
