Lynnwood Shrub Trimming (Sides & Top) Services

Hey there, Lynnwood homeowners! Are you looking to boost your curb appeal? Our sides and top trimming service is just what you need to give your hedges that sharp, clean look. We promise no ragged edges or messy clippings left behind—just a tidy finish that will have your neighbors envious!


What’s the Problem?

Let’s face it, overgrown hedges can be more than just an eyesore:

  • Bulging hedges can spill over sidewalks, stairs, and driveways, making them unsafe.
  • Wavy tops from hasty trims leave a less-than-professional appearance.
  • Windows, house numbers, and outdoor lights can get lost in a sea of greenery.
  • Other crews may leave clippings scattered everywhere, calling it a job well done.

Our Trimming Standard (Sides + Top)

We take trimming seriously! Here’s our promise:

  • Set the height line — we ensure a straight and even top that looks uniform from the curb.
  • True verticals with a slight taper — keeping the base wider promotes health and lushness.
  • Clean corners & ends — no “puffy” returns or jagged edges here!
  • Sightlines cleared — we’ll make sure pathways, windows, and fixtures are visible and accessible.
  • Full cleanup — we’ll rake, blow, and haul off debris for a pristine finish.

Quick tip: Some shrubs bloom on old wood. To keep those flowers, we can schedule trims post-bloom while ensuring the sides & top stay looking sharp.


What We Trim All Season

We handle a variety of shrubs, including:

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

Our Annual Maintenance Plan

Join our annual maintenance plan and enjoy the benefits:

  • Shape holds — we’ll do light touch-ups to maintain those tight lines without heavy pruning.
  • Bloom-aware timing — we’ll trim at just the right time to preserve next season’s flowers.
  • Bed tidy — a fresh edge around hedges enhances the overall look of your landscape.
  • Irrigation sanity — we’ll check to ensure fresh cuts don’t scorch during dry spells.

We’re all about low-maintenance landscaping! Fewer issues between visits mean more time for you to enjoy your yard!


Service Cadences

Choose the schedule that works best for you:

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

(For heavy growth or first-time rehabs, kick off with monthly services 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 support healthy growth.
  • Crisp bed edges and debris haul-off at every visit.
  • Photo updates so you can see just how sharp your hedges look!

Why Annual Maintenance Matters

Keeping your shrubs in top shape offers fantastic benefits:

  • Instant curb appeal — clean, straight lines create a polished look that impresses.
  • Safer access — clear paths and views around stairs and driveways enhance safety.
  • Healthier shrubs — regular, light trims are far better than one drastic cut.
  • Lower costs — ongoing maintenance helps you avoid expensive full reductions later.

  1. Free Estimate — send us some photos or schedule a quick walkthrough for upfront pricing.
  2. Target Lines — we’ll agree on the desired height/width and any critical sightlines.
