Lake City Hedge Trimming & Shrub Shaping Services
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!
