Lincoln Landscaping Services
Make Room for More Life Outside.
A comfortable place for morning coffee. A patio that fits everyone around the table. A front yard you enjoy coming home to. Caligreen Landscaping provides landscape installation and renovation services for Lincoln homeowners, bringing practical improvements and outdoor living features together around your plans.
Whether you are finishing a backyard or ready to change an existing landscape, let’s start with what you want your outdoor space to make possible.
Design That Fits Your Lifestyle
Quality That Lasts for Years
A Seamless, Hands-Off Experience
Your Yard Should Give You More Than Another Weekend Project
Perhaps you have spent years maintaining a lawn you barely use. Your patio might be too small for company, or the backyard still feels unfinished despite the improvements you have already made. You know the space could be better, but choosing between patios, planting, irrigation, and outdoor features can make it difficult to know where to start.
We help you work through those decisions before construction begins. By considering your layout, priorities, material choices, and budget together, we can define a project that makes sense for your home. You do not have to fill every corner with something new—just create the right places to relax, gather, and enjoy being outside.
Our Landscaping Services in Lincoln
Bring your ideas together in one coordinated landscape project. Our services can be combined into a complete front or backyard renovation or focused on a defined area of your property.
Landscape Design & Backyard Renovations
Create a clear direction for your yard before choosing individual features. We help you consider patio placement, pathways, lawn areas, planting, and the connections between them. Our planning includes layout guidance and material direction. When detailed drawings or 3D visuals are needed, we coordinate with landscape designers and explain that additional scope.
Paver & Concrete Installation
Give your outdoor furniture a proper home and make it easier to move between the spaces you use. We install paver and concrete patios, walkways, driveways, and related hardscape features. The layout can accommodate a dining table, create a welcoming entrance, or connect a patio with the rest of your backyard.
Retaining Walls, Drainage & Grading
Address water concerns and changes in elevation as part of the installation—not after the new landscape is finished. We provide retaining walls, grading, and drainage improvements appropriate to the work being planned. French drains, surface drainage, and changes to the yard’s slope are considered around the conditions on your property.
Sod, Artificial Turf & Irrigation
Choose a lawn area that fits your activities and maintenance preferences. We install natural sod and artificial turf, along with new irrigation systems and complete sprinkler-system replacements. Our irrigation work focuses on planned installations and substantial upgrades rather than individual sprinkler repairs or small maintenance calls.
Water-Efficient Landscaping
Reconsider lawn areas you rarely use and bring more variety into your landscape. Drought-tolerant planting, mulch, decorative ground coverings, and irrigation planning can become part of a yard designed around your watering and upkeep priorities. The goal is a space with greenery, texture, and purpose—not simply replacing every planting area with rock.
Outdoor Kitchens, Pergolas & Outdoor Living
Create places to cook, share a meal, and settle in for the evening. Outdoor kitchens, pergolas, gazebos, patio covers, and fire-pit areas can be planned alongside the patio and planting. Ponds and water features offer another way to personalize the space, with each addition considered as part of the whole backyard.
A Lincoln Landscape With Less Guesswork About Water and Upkeep
A landscape renovation is an opportunity to reconsider how much lawn you need, which planting areas you enjoy, and where irrigation no longer matches the layout. Lincoln’s published water-conservation guidance emphasizes efficient irrigation and limiting wasteful runoff. Those considerations belong in the planning conversation alongside appearance and outdoor living space.
For your property, that might mean keeping a useful lawn area while replacing narrow, awkward strips with planting. It could mean expanding a patio and adjusting the irrigation around it, or organizing an unfinished backyard into clear areas for dining, relaxing, and greenery. We’ll discuss the balance you want rather than assume that every Lincoln home needs the same solution.
Why Choose Caligreen Landscaping?
Recommendations That Start With Your Property
We consider what you want to preserve, what is not working, and how you plan to use the finished space.
Attention to the Groundwork
Grading, drainage, and installation preparation receive attention before the finished surfaces and planting go in.
A Clear Scope Before Construction
We explain the proposed improvements and material choices so you can review what is included before moving forward.
Respect for Your Home
Communication, organized work areas, and cleanup are important parts of the installation experience.
A Landscape That Works Together
We consider how each feature connects with the rest of the yard, with attention to both appearance and long-term use.
How Your Landscaping Project Comes Together
Tell Us About Your Yard
Your Free Landscape Clarity Plan begins with a phone-based conversation about your goals, approximate budget, layout ideas, and material preferences. Photos and inspiration are helpful, but you do not need a finished design.
Review the Plan & Proposal
For qualified projects, we arrange an on-site walkthrough to understand the property and discuss the proposed improvements. We help define the work and material direction so you have a clearer picture of the next steps.
Build Your New Outdoor Space
Once the scope and schedule are agreed upon, our installation team gets to work. We keep you informed as the project progresses and finish with a walkthrough of the completed installation.
What Does Landscaping Cost in Lincoln?
The budget depends on the area being improved and the work needed to prepare it. Removing existing materials, accessing the backyard, addressing drainage, and choosing the finished features all affect the proposal. A patio with surrounding planting has a different scope from a renovation that also includes retaining walls, a new lawn, and an irrigation system.
Caligreen’s minimum total project cost is $8,000. That minimum applies to the overall project—not the price of every individual feature included within it.
Sharing your budget early helps us discuss priorities without wasting your time on options that do not fit. We can explore different materials, adjust the layout, or consider completing the work in stages when that approach makes sense.
Loomis Landscaping FAQs
Do I need a building permit for a patio cover in Lincoln?
Yes. The City of Lincoln lists patio covers among its residential permit types and requires a building permit application. The city also provides patio-cover requirements to help define the necessary plans and supporting information.
Before finalizing the cover’s size and location, confirm the requirements for your property with Lincoln’s Building Division. Its guidance also calls for checking applicable zoning requirements, so the structure’s placement should be reviewed along with its construction details.
Does Lincoln offer help evaluating an existing irrigation system?
Yes. The City of Lincoln publishes a Water-Wise House Call service that can evaluate exterior leaks, sprinkler coverage, runoff, and irrigation scheduling. The service also includes irrigation and drainage recommendations, with water-pressure and meter checks when relevant. Contact the city to confirm availability and arrange a visit.
This is a city service, separate from Caligreen’s project consultation. Its findings can help inform the conversation when you are considering a larger landscape renovation or irrigation replacement.
What Lincoln watering rules should we consider when planning a new landscape?
Lincoln’s published municipal-code guidance prohibits allowing unreasonable amounts of supplied water to flow away from a property into gutters, ditches, or across the ground. It also requires a spray attachment or nozzle when watering lawns and gardens with a hose. The city reserves the right to restrict irrigation hours during shortages or emergencies.
Plan the irrigation around the actual lawn and planting areas, and confirm the current city guidance before setting a watering schedule. Newly installed landscaping still needs an establishment plan that accounts for applicable restrictions.
Can front-yard landscaping near a sidewalk require an additional permit?
Yes. Lincoln requires an encroachment permit for work in the public right-of-way. The city identifies sidewalks, curbs and gutters, public roads, city-owned land, and city easements as areas covered by that requirement. A traffic-control plan is required when the work will block a roadway or sidewalk.
This can affect a project that extends beyond the private yard or changes the area where a driveway meets the street. Confirm the work limits and any staging requirements with Lincoln’s Engineering staff before construction begins.
