Is Your Landscape in Need of a Little TLC?

Do your hedges resemble more of a jungle than a trimmed landscape? Uneven tops, wild branches, or just in dire need of a makeover? Look no further! Our team is here to help you achieve gorgeous, healthy, and low-maintenance hedges that enhance your property’s charm.


What’s Happening with Your Hedges?

  • Wavy edges that draw unwanted attention
  • Overgrown branches obstructing views and pathways
  • Sparse areas from past trimming missteps
  • Increased maintenance due to an unkempt shape

Our Approach: Healthy + Tidy Hedges

Here’s how we transform your hedges into the stunning features they’re meant to be:

  • Walkthrough & Consultation — We kick things off with a friendly discussion to nail down your ideal height, width, and style—whether you prefer a flat top, a gentle arch, or a natural look.
  • Selective Trimming — Our skilled team makes cuts at living nodes to encourage healthy growth—no more bad hacks that risk your plants’ vitality!
  • Precision Lines — Using string lines and guides, we ensure perfectly straight tops and plumb sides.
  • Customized Size Reduction — We carefully reduce the height and width to fit seamlessly into your landscape.
  • Detailing Edges — We focus on clean sightlines around gates, pathways, and windows—eliminating those pesky overhangs!
  • Debris Cleanup — We believe in leaving your yard spotless; we rake, bag, and haul away all trimmings, so your space feels pristine.

What We Trim and Shape

We’re equipped to handle a variety of plants, including:

  • Privacy Hedges: laurel, leyland cypress, arborvitae, photinia, privet
  • Formal Shrubs: boxwood, yew, holly, camellia
  • Flowering Shrubs: rhododendron, azalea, spirea, hydrangea (we time our trims to protect those vibrant blooms!)
  • Natural Screens: a mix of evergreen and deciduous plantings

(Note: For large tree work or hazardous removals, we offer separate tree services.)


How Often Should You Trim?

  • Twice a year is ideal for most hedges (think late spring and late summer).
  • Three times a year for fast-growing varieties like laurel and leyland cypress.
  • Annual touch-ups for slower-growing formal shrubs like boxwood and yew.

Consistency is key—keeping a regular schedule means smaller cuts, healthier plants, and less debris to manage!


What’s Included in Our Service?

  • Precision trimming and shaping to your specifications
  • Line-setting (using string/chalk) for those clean tops and sides
  • Light structural thinning to enhance airflow
  • A thorough tidy-up around pathways, patios, and flower beds
  • Debris loading and disposal at green-waste facilities

Popular Add-Ons:

  • Bed edging and spade-cut borders along hedge lines
  • Mulch top-up (2–3 inches) to suppress weeds and nourish roots
  • Weed pass at hedge bases for a truly polished appearance

Why Proper Trimming Matters (The Benefits)

  • Maintains shape longer, reducing the frequency of trims
  • Enhances plant health, minimizing the risk of disease
  • Keeps walkways and windows clear for safety
  • Instantly boosts your home’s curb appeal with defined lines
