A Plus Landscaping’s patio contractors design and build custom outdoor spaces for homeowners in Lancaster, Harrisburg, Hershey, and communities across South Central Pennsylvania.

A patio changes how you use your backyard. It gives you a place to carry dinner outside, gather around a fire on a cool evening, or start the day with coffee in the open air. The right design connects that space to your home and the rest of the property.

As a family-owned design-build company, we manage every project from the first site visit through installation, with certified installers completing the construction.

Design a Patio Around How You Use Your Backyard

Patio design starts with how you want to spend time outside. A patio contractor should plan more than a level surface. The layout, materials, and connections around the patio all affect how naturally the space works.

Your patio might become:

  • A place for outdoor dining and grilling
  • A fire pit gathering area for cool evenings
  • A comfortable setting for morning coffee or family time
  • A transition between the house and backyard
  • The foundation for an outdoor kitchen or larger outdoor living space
  • A low-maintenance surface connected to planting beds, paths, or lighting

A Plus Landscaping plans the patio around the property and how you expect to use it. The design can account for circulation from the house, space for furniture, connections to other hardscape features, and the character of the surrounding landscape.

Paver and Stone Patio Installation

Patio installation in South Central PA can use different surface materials and layouts. A Plus Landscaping helps homeowners choose an option that fits the property, the rest of the outdoor design, and how they’ll use the patio.

Paver patios

Pavers offer color, texture, and pattern options that can be arranged around the shape of the space. Paver patio installation can include a dining area, fire pit, walkways, steps, or other features that make the patio part of a larger plan.

A Plus Landscaping stands behind every patio we build with a limited lifetime warranty.

Natural stone patios

Natural stone brings variation in color, texture, and shape to an outdoor living area. Stone patio installation can create a more organic connection between the patio and the surrounding landscape, especially when the design includes planting beds, stone steps, or other natural materials.

Patio features and connections

A patio can work as the center of a larger outdoor space. Depending on the project, the design may connect with:

What Goes Into a Patio That Performs Well

A well-planned patio needs more than an attractive surface. Patio installation includes preparing the base and the details that help the finished space fit the property.

The installation plan considers:

  • Site conditions and the shape of the available space
  • Base preparation beneath the patio surface
  • Leveling and transitions between the patio and surrounding yard
  • Grading and drainage
  • Edge restraint and the way the patio meets nearby features
  • Material selection and the intended use of the space

These details help the patio feel solid underfoot and connect properly to the rest of the yard. When elevation changes affect the design, retaining walls may help create usable space and manage the grade.

From Patio Design to Final Installation

Our patio design and installation process begins with a conversation about your property and what you want to build. We keep the design and construction connected so the finished patio works as part of the larger outdoor space.

When you reach out by phone at (717) 335-1690 or through our contact form, our team will reach out to schedule a time for you to speak with one of our Design Professionals. If we are a good fit, the Design Professional visits your property, walks the space with you, and develops a custom design around your goals.

For larger projects, we produce full 3D renderings before construction begins. You can review how the patio connects to the home, surrounding features, and the rest of the outdoor living space. Once you approve the design, our certified installers complete the build. Financing is available through HFS Financial.
