Fremont Shrub Trimming (Sides & Top) Services

Brighten your Fremont home with our sides and top trimming services! We’ll ensure your hedges have a clean, professional look, all while keeping your property safe and inviting. Our team is dedicated to leaving your yard free of clippings and debris, so you can enjoy the transformation stress-free.


The Common Issues We Solve

  • Hedges that overgrow sidewalks and driveways pose safety hazards.
  • Uneven tops and ragged edges from previous trims can detract from your home’s appearance.
  • Overgrown shrubs can obscure windows, house numbers, and outdoor lighting.
  • Other services may leave clippings scattered, making clean-up a hassle.

Our Trimming Standard (Sides + Top)

We pride ourselves on our meticulous approach:

  • Set Height Line — ensuring a straight, level top for a polished look.
  • Slight Taper — wider at the base to promote healthy growth.
  • Clean Corners & Ends — avoiding “puffy” returns or ragged edges.
  • Cleared Sightlines — ensuring visibility of paths, windows, and house numbers.
  • Thorough Cleanup — we rake and haul off all debris for a pristine finish.

Quick tip: Some shrubs bloom on old wood. We can time our trims post-bloom to preserve your flowers while keeping the sides & top sharp.


Shrubs We Trim All Season

We service a variety of shrubs, including:

  • Laurels, privets, photinia, Portuguese laurel
  • Boxwood, yew, holly (with care), hebe
  • Rhododendrons, azaleas, camellias (light shaping outside bloom window)
  • Mixed “front-of-house” hedges and foundation plants

Our Annual Maintenance Plan

With our annual maintenance plan, you’ll benefit from:

  • Consistent Shape — light touch-ups to maintain clean lines without heavy pruning.
  • Bloom-Aware Timing — trims scheduled to preserve next season’s flowers.
  • Tidy Beds — fresh edges around hedges enhance your landscape.
  • Irrigation Checks — we ensure cuts don’t scorch during dry spells.

We focus on low-maintenance landscaping to save you from frequent yard work!


Service Cadences

Choose a plan that fits your needs:

  • Bi-Monthly — ideal for quick-growing and front-yard hedges.
  • Quarterly — includes deep shaping in spring and fall, plus two tune-ups.

(For heavy growth or first-time treatments, we recommend starting monthly for 60–90 days, then taper off.)


What Annual Maintenance Includes

With our annual maintenance, you can expect:

  • Sides-and-top trims to your specified height and width.
  • A slight taper to prevent shade-burn and encourage healthy growth.
  • Fresh bed edging and debris haul-off at every visit.
  • Photo updates to keep you informed of your hedges’ pristine condition.

Why Annual Maintenance Matters

Regular shrub maintenance offers significant benefits:

  • Enhanced Curb Appeal — straight lines create a polished look that impresses neighbors.
  • Improved Safety — clear pathways and visible outdoor elements reduce hazards.
  • Healthier Plants — regular trims are better than infrequent, heavy cuts.
  • Cost-Effective — ongoing maintenance helps prevent costly full reductions later.

How It Works

Getting started is simple:

  1. Free Estimate — send us photos or schedule a walkthrough for upfront pricing.
  2. Define Target Lines — we’ll agree on the desired height/width and sightlines.
  3. Trim Day — our crew will carefully trim sides, tops, and corners, edge the beds, and ensure a complete cleanup.
  4. Follow-Up — we’ll share care tips and schedule your next trimming date.
