What do customers say?

Most reviews from three years back show strong results on patios, railings, and fencing with fair pricing. Recent reviews reveal serious friction: a year-old complaint of incomplete patio work with poor communication, and a three-month-old account of a year-long pool project abandoned mid-work with frequent no-shows. The business has delivered well when present but struggles with reliability on larger jobs.

Based on limited recent reviews, so treat this as low-confidence.

  • professional problem-solving and design input
  • fair pricing and value
  • reliable follow-through on past projects

Every recent review rated Bahler Brothers five stars, consistently praising the design team (particularly Jen and George) for detailed consultation, named crew members (Sam, Dave, Dan, Lloyd, Junior, Andrew, Angel, Byron, Ryan, and others) for meticulous work, and the entire operation for showing up when promised and protecting the property during installation. They restore stained pavers, install new patios and steps, build water features and decks, and maintain hardscapes with equal care-often exceeding quoted work scope and adjusting prices downward when simpler solutions prove sufficient. Recent complex projects highlight their end-to-end approach: pool decking with drainage solutions, front step replacement with minimal lawn damage, and multi-phase builds where design, hardscape, and planting crews coordinate seamlessly. Multiple reviewers noted that the company follows up after completion to ensure satisfaction, and one case showed the owner troubleshooting a staining problem pro bono and returning within hours to solve a post-project drainage issue.
