About TLC Lawns & Landscaping – Your Waupaca Landscaping Experts
Over Two Decades of Outdoor Excellence
Since our founding in 1999, TLC Lawns & Landscaping LLC has been a trusted name in landscaping across Waupaca, Wisconsin. We are proud to be a family-owned, fully insured landscaping company with deep roots in the local community. From small residential upgrades to large-scale shoreline restoration projects, our team brings a personal, hands-on approach to every job.
Our mission is simple: deliver long-lasting, high-quality outdoor solutions that improve the appearance, function, and value of our clients’ properties. We don't rely on gimmicks or shortcuts. Instead, we focus on building real relationships, using proven materials, and applying expert techniques that are right for Wisconsin’s unique climate and terrain.
A History Built on Hard Work and Integrity
TLC Lawns & Landscaping started with a vision to provide reliable, detail-oriented landscape services to homeowners and businesses in Waupaca. Founded by Tom Leonard, the business grew steadily through word-of-mouth referrals, repeat clients, and a commitment to doing things the right way—even when no one was looking.
Over the years, we’ve expanded our services to meet the growing needs of our community. From basic lawn care and planting, we’ve evolved to specialize in shoreline restoration, hardscapes, irrigation systems, and even seasonal services like snow removal and power washing. What hasn’t changed is our passion for the work and our respect for our customers’ properties.
We are proud to have served hundreds of property owners throughout the region, and we continue to grow based on reputation, reliability, and results.

Whether you're a homeowner looking to improve your backyard, a lakefront property owner battling erosion, or a business manager needing year-round property maintenance—we have the tools, experience, and professionalism to handle your project from start to finish.

Our Specialty Services
We are proud to offer a wide variety of outdoor services, but we are especially known for the following specialties:
Shoreline Restoration
Erosion is a serious issue for lakefront and riverfront properties in Wisconsin. We specialize in shoreline restoration, using native plantings, natural stone, riprap, and grading techniques that restore stability, prevent runoff, and improve water quality. Our team understands the environmental and regulatory concerns involved and works within DNR guidelines whenever applicable.
Hardscaping & Hillside Solutions
Waupaca’s rolling landscapes and waterfront terrain create unique challenges. We design and install retaining walls, hillside steps, and patios that make outdoor spaces more functional and safe. Our team builds structures that blend with the land while solving access and drainage issues.
Lawn Care, Sodding & Irrigation
Healthy lawns start with good planning. We install fresh sod and custom irrigation systems that ensure deep root growth, proper drainage, and water efficiency. Whether you’re starting a new lawn or repairing a troubled yard, we deliver lush results that last.
Snow Removal and Property Maintenance
We provide dependable snow removal services in winter and seasonal maintenance year-round. From driveway clearing to landscape clean-ups, we help clients keep their properties safe, clean, and attractive no matter the season.
