Landscape Design + Build
Why homeowners call Tariq for landscape design and build
Most tree crews take the tree and leave you a stump and a scar. Landscape design and build is the other half. Tariq designs and builds the space back, new beds, the right plants for Centre County soil and shade, stone edging, regrading the spot a tree left behind. One person walks it with you, draws the plan, and builds it.
Hands-on know-how
What landscape design and build involves
Good landscape work starts under the ground, with the grade and the soil, not just the plants on top. After a tree comes out, the stump gets ground below grade, the hole gets backfilled, and the ground gets shaped so rain runs away from the house instead of pooling against it. Tariq matches plants to Centre County clay, shade, and deer pressure, sets stone edging and low walls on a packed base that will not heave when the ground freezes, and can take on light land clearing to open up an overgrown corner. He designs and builds the whole thing himself across Happy Valley, from a single front bed in Boalsburg to a regraded back yard in State College. You see the plan and one price before anything goes in the ground.
How it's done
What you can count on
Designed for the spot you actually have
Sun, slope, what the deer will and will not eat, how the water runs after a hard rain. The plan fits the yard in front of us, not a catalog. You see the layout before anything goes in the ground.
Built to last past the first season
Plants sized and placed so they fill in instead of crowding out in two years. Beds edged and mulched clean. Stone set on a base that holds, not laid on bare dirt.
The same hands, start to finish
No handoff to a separate crew that has never seen the site. The person who took the tree down is the person who rebuilds the space, so nothing falls through the gap between two companies.

Straight answers
Landscape Design + Build: common questions
Still not sure? Call or text Tariq and ask. No pressure, no sales script, just a straight answer about your tree.
Do you design and build, or just plant what I pick?
Both ends. Tariq walks the yard, draws a plan that fits the light and the soil, and you sign off before any plant goes in. You can bring your own ideas or start from a blank slate.
Can you rebuild the spot right after taking a tree out?
That is the point of doing both. The stump comes out, the ground gets graded, and the new bed or lawn goes in without waiting on a second company to schedule you.
What does a landscape project cost?
It depends on the size of the space and the materials, stone runs more than mulch and plantings. You get one written plan with one price after Tariq sees the yard, so there is no guessing.
