Crisp lines, thicker growth, and a hedge that lasts decades.
Done properly, a hedge-trim is also a hedge-care. We cut to encourage dense, healthy regrowth — and leave the site as tidy as we found the hedge wild.
Any species, any size.
Beech
Late-summer trim for winter colour retention.
Leylandii & conifer
Tight control is critical — we never cut into old brown wood.
Laurel
Secateur-finished where shine matters; shears for bulk.
Privet & box
Detail work, topiary shapes, formal hedging.
Mixed native
Hawthorn, blackthorn, holly, hazel — countryside-style.
Yew
One of the few evergreens that regrows from old wood.
When's best?
Most hedges benefit from a main cut in late winter (before the sap rises) and a tidy in mid-to-late summer. We never cut hedges when birds are actively nesting (typically March–August) unless we've confirmed there's no nest. This is a legal requirement under the Wildlife & Countryside Act 1981.
One-off or ongoing
We do both. A one-off reclaim on an overgrown hedge, or a scheduled 2–3 visits per year to keep things tight. Regular customers appreciate the same crew turning up every time.
