First rate design and installation of a patio, fire pit, and walkway. We couldn't be happier with the end product and the improvement to our back yard .. We wish we would have done this years ago! We received several quotes and bids for this project and decided to go with Carrington because we felt they would be able to create the outdoor living space we were looking for. The transformation of our back yard has been remarkable. The little details and thoughtful design make all the difference.... You definitely get what you pay for when you hire a top notch contractor like this.

It was easy working with Carrington. I had their arborist come out and diagnose why my oak trees are loosing their leaves early and advise on my other plants. They came up with a plan and a qoute for the other issues I had. I would highly recommend!! Very pleased!

I couldn’t be happier with the paver patio Carrington Lawn and Landscape completed for me. From start to finish, their team delivered exceptional design and craftsmanship. The quality of materials used was top-notch, and their attention to detail really shows.
What impressed me most was their follow-through—they came back after the project was finished to check everything and made a few thoughtful tweaks to ensure it was perfect.
Communication was clear and consistent throughout, and they were genuinely easy to work with.
Highly recommend for anyone looking for beautiful, lasting outdoor work backed by great service.

The design work that Mark did was great and only surpassed by the exceptional job that Andrew and Tyler did when it came to the physical work. The attention to detail, perfectionism and overall quality of work was exceptional. Andrew and Tyler worked long hours to complete the project and were very respectful of existing landscaping. Many neighbors commented on how nice they are and are considering them for future projects.
