ABOUT CARRINGTON
LAWN & LANDSCAPE

Rooted in the community. Growing with purpose.

Carrington Lawn & Landscape began the way a lot of good things do: in a garage. Back in 1998, founder Sean Carrington started the company from his mom’s place in Middleton, WI, with a few tools, a lot of hustle, and a vision that was bigger than the square footage of that garage. From the beginning, it wasn’t just about mowing lawns—it was about doing things well. Clean lines. Clean trucks. Clear communication. The kind of work you want your name on.

A Place to Call Our Own

It wasn’t long before things started to grow. First came a rented space to store equipment and call home base. Then, in 2015, Sean purchased the property where Carrington operates today. At the time, it felt huge. Now, after nearly a decade of steady growth, we’ve expanded that space to keep up with the needs of our team, our clients, and a vision that just keeps moving forward.

Built for the Long Haul

What started as a small maintenance company has evolved into a full-service landscaping operation. We offer design, installation, lawn care treatments, and snow removal—covering everything from first sketches to the final pass of the broom.

With the Work Came the People

One of the most rewarding parts of our story has been growing a team that believes in the same things we do: high standards, smart work, and a company culture that values people over profits. No burnouts. No revolving doors. Just solid people building something together.
