Meet the Team
Theder Tim Landscape Contractor is a Watertown-based landscaping business dedicated to solving the unique challenges of local properties. A common issue in the area is standing water in yards and shifting rock gardens, which can damage foundations and reduce curb appeal. Theder Tim addresses these problems by focusing on proper grading and drainage solutions to direct water away from homes, and by constructing stable, long-lasting rock gardens and hardscapes designed to withstand Wisconsin's freeze-thaw cycles. With a hands-on, practical approach, they transform problematic yards into functional, attractive outdoor spaces that are built to last. Their work is rooted in a deep understanding of Watertown's soil and climate, ensuring reliable results for homeowners.
Frequently Asked Questions
What's the best way to fix standing water in my Watertown yard?
The most effective long-term solution is correcting your property's grading and installing a proper drainage system. We assess the slope of your yard and often install French drains or catch basins to channel water away from your home's foundation and into a safe discharge area, solving the common pooling issue we see locally.
Why does my rock garden keep shifting and sinking every year?
This is a frequent problem in our area due to Wisconsin's freeze-thaw cycles, which cause soil to heave and settle. We build stable rock gardens by first excavating and preparing a solid, compacted base with proper bedding sand. We then strategically place and secure larger rocks to create a permanent, low-maintenance feature that won't shift season after season.
Can you handle both drainage issues and landscape beautification?
Absolutely. We specialize in integrated solutions. For example, we can design a dry creek bed that not only solves a drainage problem but also becomes an attractive rock garden feature. Our approach is to fix the underlying issue—like water management—while simultaneously enhancing your yard's aesthetics and functionality for year-round enjoyment.
