VALUE YOUR PRIVACY
Formal hedges, like boxwood or yew, require precise shaping to maintain clean, straight lines or geometric patterns. Perfect for structured gardens, these hedges benefit from regular trimming to retain their polished appearance.
Mixed or native hedges, often made from hawthorn, holly, or beech, provide natural beauty, wildlife habitat, and seasonal interest. Trimming keeps them healthy, dense, and attractive while supporting local biodiversity.
Tall hedges such as leylandii or laurel create privacy and define property boundaries. Regular maintenance prevents overgrowth, ensures even coverage, and keeps your garden safe, tidy, and visually appealing.
YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED
How often should I have my hedges trimmed?
Most hedges benefit from trimming once or twice a year, depending on the species and growth rate. Formal hedges may need more frequent shaping, while informal or slower-growing hedges can be trimmed less often.
Do you offer one-off hedge trimming services?
Yes, we offer both one-off hedge cutting and regular maintenance plans. Whether you need a seasonal tidy-up or help with a particularly overgrown hedge, we can tailor our service to suit your needs.
Can you remove the green waste after trimming?
Absolutely. We clear up all clippings and can remove green waste as part of the service. Standard bookings include disposal of up to one black bin bag of green waste.
Are your hedge trimming services available for commercial properties?
Yes, we regularly work with commercial clients including schools, estates, and business parks. We offer flexible scheduling to minimise disruption and ensure the site remains clean and professional.
Do you trim tall or high-reach hedges?
Yes, we specialise in high-reach hedge trimming. Our team is fully equipped with long-reach tools, ladders, and safety gear to tackle even the tallest and most difficult hedges safely and efficiently.
