Blend Decks and Hardscapes for Seamless Outdoor Living
Enjoy outdoor living in comfort and style with a custom deck from Bahler Brothers. Our team designs and builds durable, low-maintenance composite decks that perfectly blend with your patio, landscaping, and home’s architecture.
Elevated Outdoor Living
A well-designed deck serves as the perfect bridge between your home and your outdoor space. Made to be a peaceful place to unwind, a space to host guests, or an outdoor dining area, decks offer the elevation and structure needed to bring it all together. They pair perfectly with patios, walkways, and surrounding landscape features to create a cohesive layout.
At Bahler Brothers, we specialize in Composite Decking, a modern material that offers the rich look of natural wood without the hassle of ongoing maintenance. They are resistant to rot, fading, and insect damage, making them ideal for New England weather.
Patios vs. Decks—What's the Difference?
A deck can be a direct extension of your indoor living space, with a combined outdoor cooking and dining area providing both convenience and luxury.
Several design elements can be constructed to obtain an intimate, enclosed space. A pergola can provide some cover from the elements. Add low voltage lighting and outdoor heaters to expand upon the use of your space throughout the seasons.
Step down to ground level, and your stone or paver patio can provide an extended entertainment area, with a seating area and perhaps a fire feature for gathering with family and friends.
Deck Resurfacing
If your current deck is deteriorating but the underlying structure is in good shape, you may be able to give your deck a new look with some fresh decking. In this case, we use all the existing beams and footings and simply replace the rotting deck boards and railings with new material. We prefer building with composite decking to ensure your deck has an extended life with little maintenance.
Custom Features & Add-Ons
Personalize your deck with details that enhance your entire outdoor living experience. You can add things like built-in benches and planters, railings, integrated lighting, privacy walls and pergolas, and other seamless transitions to patios or pools.
Maintain the Beauty of Your Deck
Protect your deck and hardscapes with care and cleaning. Our Hardscape Cleaning & Maintenance team provides professional washing for your deck and sealing your hardscapes to extend their life and keep it looking its best year-round.
Frequently Asked Questions About Deck Installations
How much does a new deck cost?
Deck pricing can vary depending on the materials, size, and complexity. As a general rule of thumb, most decks in Connecticut range from $35 to $65 per square foot. For a rough estimate, try using our Cost Calculator or reach out to us for a more personalized quote.
Is composite decking worth it?
Yes, absolutely! Composite decks require minimal maintenance, won’t rot or splinter, and retain their color for decades, making them a cost-effective long-term investment that can last 25-50 years, depending on the environmental conditions.
Can I resurface an old wood deck with composite boards?
In many cases, you can resurface an old wood deck with composite boards. If the framing and structure are still sound, we can replace only the decking surface and railings, saving you time and cost. However, we are also able to do deck repair if needed.
Do you handle permits and inspections?
Yes. We handle all necessary permits with your town or city and coordinate inspections to make sure your project meets local building codes and safety requirements.

In 2025 Bahler Brothers did a great job on sealant & powerwashing our back patio concrete. This year, we asked them to come out to realign & level out our front walkway pavers. Once again, they did a great job, came out the next week & finished the job in two days. The front walkway looks brand new! Highly recommend Bahler Brothers!
We just had Bahler Brothers do work on our patio. They made the patio look brand new. Sam, Dave & Dan were so professional, have a strong work ethic and so polite and friendly. I wish we found them sooner. We plan on using them again for our front walkway. We highly recommend Bahler Brothers.
This team does amazing work, they’re at excellent communicating, and provide a high level of service, I highly recommend.
We had an amazing experience with Bahler Brothers when they installed our new front walkway in Summer 2025. From our first visit to the showroom with George, everything was professional—he was well prepared, knew our house, explained options patiently, and helped us choose the perfect design and materials. Every detail was planned ahead, and the cost estimate was exact—we didn’t spend a penny over. George also checked in regularly during the project to ensure we were happy with the progress. The crew was extremely hardworking, putting in full days in 90+ degree heat and even working through rain. They were always respectful of our property, our family members, and our neighbors. The foreman, RD, was a true gentleman—knowledgeable, kind, and genuinely funny—and a pleasure to work with throughout the project. The finished walkway looks beautiful, solid, and expertly constructed, completely transforming the front of our house. If you want top-quality craftsmanship, a well-organized process, and an outstanding team, we highly recommend Bahler Brothers.
