“I often say "you never have a second chance to make a great first impression." Landscaping is often the first thing people will notice about your home. And in the backyard, you can give yourself a visual treat every day after a long day at work. Over past years, Stonebridge Associates has delivered for us landscape design and maintenance; tree, shrub, and bulb placement; pool and spa construction; sprinkler system installation and maintenance; landscape lighting; and patio construction. Rob and his team are "Big enough to deliver; Small enough to care."”

“I have used Stonbridge Associates for 12+ years for a variety of landscaping projects and they have never disappointed. Their work is impeccable and reasonably priced. Nice people to work with!”

“We recently bought a home in New Canaan and needed professional counselling on how to execute a phased-approach to landscaping: from essential clearing and maintenance; to targeted new plantings, to early considerations around a master plan for the back yard and pool area. This was made more complex since we were undertaking a home renovation project first, which meant we didn’t want to do too much or too little, and we were still living in Europe which meant trust and communication was critical. StoneBridge worked with us at the right pace and always with the right ideas. Transparency and frequency in communication; always good ideas ranging from simple to complex, and clear/proper cost estimates — always delivered upon — have impressed us. The execution, and the level of trust, couldn’t be better with StoneBridge.”

“You and your company are truly a "class act" -- professional, honest, reputable, hard-working and friendly folks. If Larry and I could ever assist you in obtaining new clients by including us on your list of references, please feel free to do so. We would be happy to speak to any potential client over the telephone or allow them to view our property/escorted by you -- if you like. We hope that anyone who is serious about "beautifying" their property hears about your company. You truly put your heart and soul into our project and for that we are very grateful.”

“We have been working with Stonebridge for the last several seasons and we have been very happy with our relationship and communication with the staff, and more importantly, with the end result. Our property looks beautiful! Thanks to Stonebridge, everything is healthy and well maintained. In addition to the maintenance and up keep of our property, Stonebridge has designed and executed many lovely additions to our property including most recently, the creation of a woodlands path and a floral cutting design.”

“Stonebridge Associates did a fantastic job planning out my back yard. Prior to my renovation, my back yard had a very steep slope that dropped precipitously to the bottom of the yard. The plan they drew up gave me a beautiful stone wall that now frames an upper terrace. From my kitchen window looking out, I have a beautiful view of the stone wall and my new garden. From the bottom of the yard looking back, the house is set off by the stone wall that blends easily into the hill. It looks like a different home. A big thank you to Rob Hughes and his workmen who were prompt and neat, and got the job done as scheduled. They even took the time to transplant some of my plants that otherwise would have ended up in the mulch pile.”

“I have worked with Stonebridge Associates for many years and they are superb! I can't say enough about how wonderful they are. Not only have they meticulously maintained my property, but they transformed it into an oasis. Each season brings new surprises, and I am constantly amazed at how much thought and care they put into my garden. They are reliable and knowledgeable. True professionals, with great personalities as well.”

“What a joy to entrust our home, our safe haven, and probably our best investment to the talented and the trustworthy! Our in ground pool is stunning, designed by Rob Hughes to directly mirror the architectural design of our home. That we love it, is no surprise. The surprise is in the follow-up care that has ensued over the past decade, and the sensational landscaping nurtured by Rob and his entire staff, including Mom! We were astonished to realize that the pool landscaping gives us as much joy as the pool itself. Who would have thought that inveterate city dwellers could revel so, in watching blossoms come and go with mathematical precision, from April to October, providing a never ending array of color and fragrance. Well done Stonebridge!! Unqualified raves all around. Can't wait until spring.”

“Rob Hughes has helped us with a number of major(and some minor) projects over the past 15 years. He has: designed and landscaped the front yard; designed and installed an in-ground gunite pool with blue stone terrace, walkways and a stone retaining wall supporting a sloping backyard; landscaped the pool area and entire backyard, including re-purposing shrubs to create a park like setting in downtown Ridgefield; repaired the pool for the effects of normal wear and tear; installed picket and pool fencing, as well as French drains; repaired fencing after windstorms, and most recently, re-landscaped the front yard to simplify maintenance. Rob has an easy-going disposition, and was able to help us meet in the middle when we had differing visions for the "look" of our property. We value his creative input, and have complete confidence in his ability to deliver a pleasing result. All work was performed professionally, on-time and on-budget. We highly recommend Rob and his team.”
