Woodinville Shrub Trimming (Sides & Top) Services

Ready to give your curb appeal a serious boost? Our sides and top trimming service will transform your hedges into perfectly manicured masterpieces! Say goodbye to ragged edges and unsightly clippings left behind. We pride ourselves on creating a slight taper at the bottom for that lush, healthy look while handling all cleanup and debris removal with ease.


What’s the Problem?

  • Hedges bulging over sidewalks, stairs, and driveways can be both an eyesore and a safety hazard.
  • Wavy tops and uneven heights from previous hasty trims leave a less-than-professional appearance.
  • Windows, house numbers, and outdoor lights can become lost in overgrown greenery.
  • Other crews may leave clippings everywhere, claiming the job is done.

Our Trimming Standard (Sides + Top)

With us, you can expect:

  • Set the height line — ensuring a tight, level top that looks straight from the curb.
  • True verticals with slight taper — wider at the base for healthy and vibrant hedges.
  • Clean corners & ends — no “puffy” returns or chewed edges in sight.
  • Sightlines cleared — ensuring paths, windows, house numbers, and fixtures remain visible.
  • Full cleanup — we rake/blow and haul off debris, wrapping up with a neat bed edge.

Quick tip: some shrubs bloom on old wood. To keep those gorgeous flowers, we can schedule trims post-bloom while ensuring the sides & top still look crisp!


What We Trim All Season

We cater to 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 holds — light touch-ups to keep lines tight 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 to enhance the overall look.
  • Irrigation sanity — a quick check ensures fresh cuts don’t scorch during dry spells.

We’re all about low-maintenance landscaping. Fewer issues between visits mean less work for you!


Service Cadences

Choose the timing that suits your needs:

  • 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, consider 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 slight taper to prevent shade-burn and maintain healthy growth.
  • Bed edge crisping and debris haul-off at every visit.
  • Photo updates to keep you informed about the sharpness of your hedges.

Why Annual Maintenance Matters

Maintaining your shrubs has incredible benefits:

  • Instant curb appeal — straight lines create a clean look that makes a great impression.
  • Safer access — clear paths, stairs, and driveway views for enhanced safety.
  • Healthier shrubs — regular, light trims are more beneficial than one drastic cut.
  • Lower cost — ongoing maintenance helps you avoid costly 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.
