BAHLER BROTHERS
Landscape Maintenance Plans Built for New England Properties
Spring cleanups. Seasonal pruning. Mulching that actually holds up. One plan, one crew, all year long for Connecticut and Massachusetts properties.
A Landscape Plan That Doesn't Leave You Guessing
Most homeowners don’t want to think about when their beds need edging, or when the weed preventer should be put down.
At Bahler Brothers, we build your property into a seasonal schedule so pruning, cleanups, fertilizing, and mulching happen on time, every time, every season, without you having to call and remind us.
If your yard is in decent shape and you want to keep it that way, this plan is for you. If it’s more overgrown than that, we also do full property resets.
Please note, we do not provide lawn maintenance, such as lawn mowing, or snow removal services.
What's Included in a Bahler Brothers Maintenance Plan
Every plan follows the same rhythm your property actually needs through the year. Spring gets things cleaned up and reset after winter, summer keeps growth and weeds in check, and fall preps everything to go dormant the right way.
In between, we’re back on a monthly or bi-monthly basis so nothing gets a chance to fall behind. Here’s what’s covered in each visit.
Please note, we do not provide lawn maintenance, such as lawn mowing, or snow removal services.

What Our Clients Are Saying
We take a lot of pride in the outdoor living spaces we create, but nothing means more to us than hearing from the homeowners who get to enjoy them every single day. Here’s what our clients have to say about their Bahler Brothers experience.
I had them design and build a place for my swim spa. From start to finish, each phase of the project was amazing. Jen in design went to great detail to ensure I knew every detail. The team of guys that came out to build my space was amazing and they all took the time to explain each step of what was being built. I now have a beautiful outdoor space that I can enjoy and everyone that sees the work are blown away. Thank you Josh and team for all you did.
The team at Bahler Brothers did an absolutely amazing job on our water feature. They are true professionals in every sense of the word. They are extremely prompt, friendly and talented, from initial phone contact until completion, their #1 concern is a happy client .We would highly recommend them to anyone in need of landscaping, water features or hard scapes.
The service we received was outstanding--fast, professional, and effective. We needed oak tannin stains removed from our patio after a tree fell on our house. A crew was at our house within a day and was able to clean the pavers with less work than was originally quoted. Not only was the patio restored beautifully, but we also received excellent information about how to care for our patio to prevent problems in the future. The price was adjusted as well to reflect the fact that a simpler approach was sufficient to get the job done. We are happy with the entire experience and would recommend this company to anyone who needs restoration work on their patio.
From start to finish, every step of the process to replace our front steps was executed flawlessly by Bahler Brothers. Initially George helped guide us to the perfect design and materials. When the time came to begin the project we were informed when each step would take place- and they were always at our house when they said they’d be. Lloyd was careful to place mats in our driveway to protect it as he excavated the area. As soon as that portion was done Junior, Andrew, and Angel began work on the steps and walkway. I was so impressed with how detailed and meticulous they were. Each step, each paver was placed exactly where it should be. They made double and triple sure of it! When Byron and Ryan in the landscaping division came to put our plantings back they were careful to do it exactly as it was before - even adding new stone so the plantings were completely covered as before. Josh called to make sure we were happy - which we were! George also came one last time to make sure the job was done to our satisfaction. We couldn’t be happier and would recommend Bahler Brothers to anyone who needed a project done and done right! We are now waiting for the railing vendor to install the railing. Once that is done our step project will be complete.
Common Questions About Maintenance Plans
Do I need to sign up for a full season, or can I get a one-time cleanup?
Not necessarily. We also offer one-time cleanups for properties that just need a single service, rather than ongoing care. That said, clients on a maintenance plan get the added benefits, such as the extended plant warranty, so it’s worth asking us which option makes sense for your property.
How often does someone come to my property during the season?
Between your spring, summer, and fall visits, we’re also on-site monthly or bi-monthly from April through December for onging pruning, weeding, and cleanup
What's the difference between a maintenance plan and a property reset?
A maintenance plan keeps an already-maintained property on schedule. If your property has gotten overgrown and needs a deeper first pass, start with a property reset, then move into a seasonal plan.
