Hedge Trimming

What's involved

Hedges that lift the whole garden

A well-kept hedge frames a garden — and a shaggy one drags the whole place down. Regular trimming keeps a hedge dense, even and in shape rather than woody and patchy. Whether it's a low border hedge or a tall screening hedge, we'll keep its line clean.

Reshaping the ones that got away

If a hedge has lost its shape or grown taller than you want, it can usually be cut back and brought into form — sometimes best done in stages to keep the plant healthy. We'll take a look, talk you through the right approach, and clear away every bit of the trimmings.

Questions

Hedge Trimming FAQs

Common questions about hedge trimming with Dexter's. Still not sure? Just ask when you get in touch.

How often should hedges be trimmed?

Most hedges look their best with a trim once or twice a year, though fast-growing varieties in Brisbane's warm climate can need it more often. Regular trimming keeps a hedge dense and well-shaped rather than woody and uneven — we can suggest a timing that suits yours.

Do you shape hedges or just cut them back?

Both. We can maintain a hedge's existing shape on a regular trim, or cut back and reshape one that's lost its form. The goal is always a tidy, even finish that lifts the look of the whole garden.

Can you reduce the height of an overgrown hedge?

In most cases, yes. An overgrown hedge can usually be brought down and back into shape, though a hard cut-back is sometimes best staged so the plant stays healthy. We'll take a look and talk you through the best approach for your hedge.

Do you clean up the trimmings afterwards?

Yes. Clearing up the cuttings is part of the job — we gather the trimmings so you're left with a neat hedge and a clean space, not a mess to deal with yourself.

What types of hedges and shrubs do you trim?

We trim the common hedge and shrub varieties found around Brisbane homes — from low border hedges to taller screening hedges. Let us know roughly what you've got and how big it is when you ask for a quote.

Can hedge trimming be done with my regular mow?

Yes — combining hedge trimming with your regular lawn visit is an efficient way to keep the whole garden looking sharp. Just let us know and we'll factor it into your schedule and quote.
