A Plus Landscaping, a design-build firm based near Lancaster, Pennsylvania, has announced a partnership with HFS Financial that enables homeowners to finance up to 120% of their backyard project costs with flexible 20-year terms. The move addresses a common pain point in outdoor construction: the difficulty of coordinating multiple contractors for pools, hardscapes, and landscaping, which often leads to delays and structural issues.
By offering a single-contractor approach, A Plus Landscaping aims to eliminate the fragmentation that homeowners typically face. Instead of managing separate crews for excavation, masonry, and planting, clients can work with one team from initial 3D design through final walkthrough. This unified master-planning framework ensures that swimming pools, custom decks, outdoor kitchens, and seating areas are integrated seamlessly, reducing operational uncertainty and supporting long-term property value.
“A backyard pool shouldn't feel like a separate entity dropped carelessly into a yard,” said Marcus Waldner, Founder of A Plus Landscaping. “Evaluating a project solely through standalone features ignores how layout, proper grade flow, and surrounding hardscape elements must interface. By serving as a single-contractor partner from the initial custom 3D design to the final walkthrough, we handle the entire ecosystem.”
Conventional backyard construction places a significant coordination burden on homeowners, who must personally manage timelines across separate contractors. This often results in misaligned grading elevations, fragmented oversight, and costly delays. A Plus Landscaping’s design-build model consolidates these responsibilities, maintaining architectural cohesion throughout the project. The company backs its custom paver patio installations with a 15-year warranty and ensures that full-turnkey pool environments perform seamlessly as the functional heart of the home.
A key advantage of the unified approach is the ability to adapt backyard layouts to South Central Pennsylvania’s rolling terrain and seasonal freeze-thaw cycles. Projects are engineered from the outset to withstand these conditions, whether clients seek a modern in-ground pool or a low-maintenance family-oriented environment.
To simplify upfront planning, A Plus Landscaping offers low-rate hardscape and pool financing options through its partnership with HFS Financial, providing up to 120% project coverage with 20-year terms. This structure allows homeowners to develop their entire backyard footprint in a single phase, avoiding the added expense of retrofitting hardscapes around an existing pool shell later.
For leaders in business and technology, this news highlights the growing trend of integrated service delivery and financing in the home improvement industry. By combining design, construction, and financing under one roof, A Plus Landscaping reduces project risk and improves outcomes for homeowners. The partnership with HFS Financial also reflects a broader shift toward consumer-friendly financing options that make larger projects more accessible.
