Normandy Park Shrub Trimming (Sides & Top) Services
Are you looking to boost your home’s curb appeal? Our sides and top trimming service is just what you need to give your hedges a polished and professional look. We’re all about sharp lines, no messy clippings left behind, and a gorgeous finish that will make your yard the envy of the neighborhood!
What’s the Problem?
- Hedges sprawling over sidewalks, steps, and driveways can look messy and create safety hazards.
- Uneven tops and ragged edges from hasty trims detract from your landscape’s charm.
- Overgrown greenery can obscure windows, house numbers, and outdoor lighting, making your home less inviting.
- Other crews might leave clippings scattered everywhere and call it a day, but we believe in leaving your property spotless.
Our Trimming Standard (Sides + Top)
With our commitment to quality, here’s what you can expect:
- Set the height line — we ensure a level top that looks straight from the curb, enhancing your home’s charm.
- True verticals with slight taper — we’ll keep the base wider for a healthy hedge that flourishes.
- Clean corners & ends — we avoid those annoying “puffy” returns or chewed edges.
- Sightlines cleared — we ensure windows, paths, numbers, and fixtures are easily visible.
- Full cleanup — we rake and blow away debris, leaving you with a tidy landscape.
Quick tip: Some shrubs bloom on old wood. If you want to keep those beautiful flowers, we can schedule trims after blooming while still keeping the sides & top looking sharp!
What We Trim All Season
We take pride in caring for 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
With our annual maintenance plan, you’ll enjoy:
- Shape retention — we provide light touch-ups to maintain those crisp lines without the need for heavy pruning.
- Bloom-aware timing — we’ll trim at the right time to preserve next season’s beautiful blooms.
- Bed tidy — we’ll refresh the edges around your hedges to enhance the overall look of your landscape.
- Irrigation sanity — we’ll perform a quick check to ensure fresh cuts don’t scorch during dry spells.
Our goal is to provide low-maintenance landscaping. Fewer issues between visits mean less hassle for you!
Service Cadences
Choose the timing that suits your needs best:
- Bi-Monthly — ideal for fast-growing and front-yard hedges.
- Quarterly — includes spring/fall deep shaping along with two tune-ups.
(For heavy growth or first-time rehabs, we recommend starting monthly for 60–90 days, then taper off.)
What Annual Maintenance Includes
Here’s what you can expect with our annual maintenance:
- Sides-and-top trims to your specified height and width.
- A gentle taper to prevent shade-burn and encourage healthy growth.
- Crisp bed edges and debris haul-off at every visit.
- Photo updates to keep you in the loop about how sharp your hedges are looking!
Why Annual Maintenance Matters
Regular maintenance for your shrubs has amazing benefits:
- Instant curb appeal — neat, straight lines create a clean look that wows neighbors and guests alike.
- Safer access — clear paths and visibility on stairs and driveways enhance safety for you and your visitors.
- Healthier shrubs — regular, light trims are far better than one harsh cut, promoting longevity.
