"I have worked with Hutchins Landscape since 2016, not long after we moved into our property in Durham. My lawn is gorgeous thanks to the year-round care of Jon Hutchins and his crew. I cannot thank Jon enough for the MANY ways he has improved our property: landscape design; an array of beautiful plantings that flower during different seasons throughout the year; a seven-station irrigation system; a rock patio in the back yard; a fence for the property; and low-voltage landscape lighting. Any time I have requested service, Jon and his wife Carmen have always promptly responded. They are kind, professional, and personable. It is clear that they really care about their customers and take pride in their business. I cannot recommend them more highly--they are the best!"

"Was impressed with team workmanship with Father & Son! Replaced 2 heads and made sure all others were working properly, while paying attention to setting up weekly irrigation times. They also fixed a small leak from winter fitting. After repairing & setting up system to my satisfaction - they promised to follow up to rectify if all was ok with town and my need for future closing services."

"Bryan and his crew were a pleasure to work with. I hired them to clean up the yard and put down some mulch. The work they did surpassed my expectations! I was happily surprised with the quality because the price was so low. Bryan is a talented, smart, and hard working guy, and I highly recommend him and his crew."

Lawns questions, answered by experts

Several tools exist that can help remove unwanted grass. The one you choose depends greatly on how much you need to remove and how hard you'd like to work. A sod or turf cutter is the fastest method while using a shovel is labor-intensive and much slower. You may also need a garden rake, tiller, and wheelbarrow. 

According to the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, there are over 10,000 kinds of mushrooms, and some are harmful to both humans and animals. However, not all mushrooms are harmful—some feed on thatch and wood, which provides nutrients for grass and plants. 

But unless you’re a mushroom expert (mycologist), it can be hard to tell poisonous mushrooms from non-poisonous. So if you have kids or pets (or both), removing them is the safest route to take.

If you have a lot of trees around your home, mulching all those leaves can smother the lawn. Air and light won't reach the grass and soil if too many leaves have been mulched. Turf grass and other lawn problems can arise if the weather is too wet and excessive leaves have been mulched.

Don’t pick up dirt after aerating. Even though it's tempting because soil cores are incredibly unsightly, these cores and the dirt they leave behind are ecologically important. This is what keeps your grass looking beautiful and growing healthily. The soil cores need two to three weeks to decompose, but you can swat them with a rake if their natural shape bothers you.

The most cost-effective approach to land clearing is DIY-ing what you can, such as removing brush, small saplings, and other more manageable tasks. Then, contact a tree cutting pro to finish the job for the larger vegetation and trees on your property. Get multiple quotes, look for off-season discounts, and scope out all your options to keep things as budget-friendly as possible.
