Our History
Harrington & Sons has grown from a small general contracting and paving company into North Jersey’ s most experienced providers of construction and landscape services. Harrington oversees projects from small masonry and landscape maintenance jobs to large site development projects.
The company was founded in 1958 by William Harrington Sr., in an era where business was done with a handshake and verbal commitment. The company’s focus was primarily General Contracting and Paving until 1990 when William’s son, John came on board.
With John’s vision, the business grew by adding House Line Excavation to i ts portfolio of services. The company continued to expand with the hiring of seasoned managers and addition of Landscape Design Build services.
Such growth and expansion would not have been possible without an outstanding team of managers, each with an incredible resume of industry experience. The team includes Willie Mulvaney, Michael Roskie, Fred Zahn, Doug Bockoven and Mark Rafalco.
Harrington’s experienced and seasoned managers approach each project with an eye for detail and success from start to finish. Whether it’s paving a driveway or an extensive site development project, all projects are completed within a schedule and customer satisfaction is paramount. We take pride in every project and each of our divisions: Paving, Excavating and Grading, Landscape Design / Build, Masonry and Site Development.
We look forward to serving our customers and growing and evolving in an ever – changing and challenging industry.

Testimonials
I have used Harrington on numerous occasions on a variety of projects and I have found them to be professional, timely and thorough in their work with excellent attention to detail. I happily recommend them as a trustworthy and sensibly priced construction company.
Harrington Construction is one of the best Site Development Companies I have ever worked with. They stand behind their work and there isn’t any project too large or too small. With good quality and meeting all deadlines, I wouldn’t hire any other company. Also, I have interacted with many of Harrington’s employees from the President down to the laborers and everyone was respectful and professional.
