A   B r i e f   S u m m a r y

The original business was founded by Mr. Ken Harrington in 1974, as a part time business specialising in domestic landscape construction. By the early 1980's, having expanded the business into garden maintenance and irrigation installation with 12 casual staff, a decision was made to go full time.

Since 1974 the business has grown and evolved to its present day position in the industry, with Ken gaining a wealth of knowledge, both formal and informal and hard earned experience along the way. The staff and sub-contractors chosen by Ken to work on your project are all trained and thoroughly conversant in their field of expertise.

Ken has won numerous recognised Landscape Industry Awards, for care, attention to detail and finish to the project. In 1998 Ken was nominated in the top 12 landscapers by the Australian Landscape Contractors Association. In 2005 Ken was in the top 12 landscape designers for Australia, by the Australian Institute of Landscape Designers and Managers.

Apart from landscape / irrigation design and supervision for construction of the project, Ken is also involved in the industry as a trainer, improving the skills of his own people and others within the industry. He has written numerous accredited training manuals for the industry and has also co-authored a soon to be released book on gardening and design in a Mediterranean climate. Ken has also been a consultant for both the Botanical Gardens & Gardening Australia Advice Line.

Ken Harrington, his staff and sub-contractors all have an ongoing commitment to provide innovative, high quality products and service to both existing and future clients alike.
