Do-It-Yourself Landscaping Might Cost You More Than You Think
Many homeowners start out thinking, “I’ll just take care of the lawn myself and save some money.” But between the trips to the hardware store, equipment breakdowns, and weekends lost to yard work, DIY landscaping often ends up costing more in both time and money than hiring a professional.
At Xscapes Landscaping, we help Omaha-area homeowners protect their investment, save time, and enjoy a beautiful outdoor space without all the stress.

Time Is Money—And Your Weekends Matter
Your time is valuable. If you’re spending hours mowing, trimming, mulching, and trying to figure out what’s wrong with your sprinkler system, you’re losing time that could be spent with your family, working on your business, or just relaxing.
Professional landscapers already have the tools, training, and efficient workflows to get the job done faster and better. What might take you all weekend, we can handle in a couple of hours.

Avoid Costly Mistakes
DIY landscaping mistakes can be expensive. Common ones include:
Over- or under-watering your lawn
Choosing the wrong type of grass or plants for our Omaha climate
Poor drainage that causes flooding or foundation issues
Improper pruning that damages trees and shrubs
Inefficient sprinkler systems that raise water bills
When you work with a professional, you get expert advice and proper planning—preventing mistakes before they happen.

Save on Equipment and Maintenance Costs
Landscaping requires more than a mower. Fertilizer spreaders, aerators, hedge trimmers, irrigation tools, and mulch blowers all cost money—and they require maintenance and storage.
Hiring a professional means you don’t have to spend hundreds or thousands on tools that sit unused most of the year. We bring our own equipment, and it’s always ready to go.

Increase Property Value with Pro Results
A well-maintained landscape doesn’t just look good—it adds value to your property. Curb appeal plays a major role in home value, and professional landscaping has one of the highest returns on investment in real estate.
Whether you’re looking to sell, rent, or simply enjoy your outdoor space, hiring a pro ensures your yard always looks its best.
