Livonia Thrive Spotlight: Young Entrepreneur Builds B & B Landscaping from the Ground Up

In Livonia, hard work and determination are helping a young entrepreneur build a business—and a legacy.

At just 16 years old, Braylen Bruyere is the owner and operator of B & B Landscaping, a growing landscaping service that has already been serving Livonia and surrounding communities for about two years.

While most teenagers are balancing school and part-time jobs, Braylen is running a year-round landscaping business that handles everything from lawn maintenance to heavy debris removal. What makes his story even more meaningful is how the business began.

Braylen used money he inherited from his late mother to purchase the truck and equipment needed to start his company—turning a personal loss into motivation to build something positive for himself and his community.

A Full Range of Landscaping Services

B & B Landscaping offers a variety of outdoor services designed to help homeowners keep their properties clean, functional, and looking their best.

Services include:

• Lawn mowing
• Weed removal
• Garden removal
• Fence line clearing
• Yard cleanup
• Trash and debris removal
• Transporting and hauling services
• Seasonal work including snow removal

The business operates year-round, helping residents manage their yards through Michigan’s changing seasons.

How the Work Gets Done

Braylen handles projects using his own equipment, including a truck, trailer, lawn mower, snow blower, rake, and other landscaping tools. For debris and trash removal jobs, materials are hauled away using his truck and trailer, and the B & B team handles all loading and cleanup, so customers don’t need to lift a finger.

Pricing is based on a custom quote, since each job can vary in size, difficulty, and time required. Braylen typically reviews the property first to provide a fair estimate.

Trash removal jobs are also priced based on the amount of work involved and the complexity of the cleanup.

Work Ethic Beyond His Years

What truly sets B & B Landscaping apart is the person behind it.

At an age when many people are just beginning to explore work opportunities, Braylen is already putting in the same level of effort expected from seasoned professionals.

His determination, combined with the story behind how the business began, has earned him growing recognition in the community.

Photos of completed projects, equipment, and ongoing work can be found on the business’s Instagram page, giving residents a chance to see the results firsthand.
