Hedge Trimming
Hedge Trimming & Pruning Across the Fylde Coast
Hedges and shrubs are the framework of a garden, and they are the first thing to look neglected when they are left. We trim, shape and reduce growth at the right time of year, then clear every last cutting away.

What this service involves
Trimming keeps a hedge to the height and width you want, with flat tops and straight faces rather than a gradual bulge. Where a hedge has been left for a few seasons we reduce it in stages so it recovers properly instead of being cut back into bare wood all at once.
Pruning shrubs, climbers and small trees is a separate skill to cutting a hedge. Work is timed around how each plant flowers and fruits, so you are not sacrificing next year's display for this year's tidiness. Deadwood, crossing branches and growth blocking paths, windows or light all come out.
Coastal exposure is the recurring problem on this side of the Fylde. Salt wind scorches the seaward face of a hedge and pushes growth inland, so boundary hedges need shaping with that lean in mind. We also check for active nesting before any cut between spring and late summer, and postpone that section if we find one.
Included as standard

- Staged reduction for overgrown or long-neglected hedges
- Shrubs, climbers and small trees pruned in season

Who it suits
Who we carry out this work for
Homeowners
For boundary hedges that have crept over a path, a fence line or a neighbour's side and now need bringing back under control.
Landlords
Keeps boundaries compliant and sightlines clear at rental properties without relying on tenants to own a set of hedge trimmers.
Elderly or less mobile residents
Ladder work on hedges is exactly the job not to attempt. We bring the access equipment and handle all of it from the ground up safely.
Holiday let owners
A single well-timed trim before the season keeps frontages smart in photographs and stops guests pushing past overgrown growth.
