Shaping and tidying hedges of every size — from low borders to full screening hedges — for a clean, finished look.
Let us put some shape back into your hedges
Hedges do a lot of work — screening, framing, defining a garden — but only when they're kept in shape. Our hedge trimming keeps yours crisp and healthy, from low border hedges to tall screening hedges along boundaries and fence lines.
Regular trimming encourages dense, even growth and stops a hedge going woody and bare at the base. We shape carefully, clean up every clipping, and can fold hedge work into your regular garden maintenance so it never gets overlooked.

Common questions about hedge trimming
How often do hedges need trimming?
It depends on the species and the look you're after, but most Brisbane hedges benefit from two to four trims a year. Fast-growing screening hedges may want a tidy every few months to keep them dense and sharp, while slower formal hedges hold their shape longer. When we quote your hedges we'll suggest a sensible rhythm, and we can fold hedge trimming into your regular garden maintenance visits so it never gets overlooked.
Will trimming damage my hedge?
Done properly, regular trimming actually keeps a hedge healthier — it encourages dense, even growth and stops the plant going woody and bare at the base. We trim to maintain shape rather than cutting back hard into old wood unless that's specifically needed, and we time heavier work for when the plant will recover well. If a hedge has been left a long time we'll talk you through the best approach before we start so you know what to expect.
Do you clean up the clippings?
Yes, always. A hedge trim isn't finished until the mess is gone. We rake and collect the clippings, blow down paths and hard surfaces, and leave the area clean. If there's a large volume of green waste from a big trim we'll let you know in advance so we can factor removal into the quote, rather than leaving a pile behind for you to deal with.
Can you trim tall or hard-to-reach hedges?
We handle most residential hedges, including taller screening hedges along boundaries and fence lines. If a hedge is particularly high or in an awkward spot we'll assess access when we quote and let you know exactly what we can do safely. We'd rather be upfront about what's practical than promise something and not be able to finish it properly.
How do you charge for hedge trimming?
Hedge trimming is quoted on the size and number of hedges, how overgrown they are and how much green waste needs removing. A hedge kept on a regular trim is quicker and cheaper to maintain than one left for a year, so ongoing customers tend to get better value. Quotes are free — we'll look at the job and give you a clear price before any work begins.
Can hedge trimming be part of my regular service?
Definitely. Many of our customers have us look after the whole garden — mowing, edging, hedges and general tidying — on one regular schedule. Folding hedges into your routine visits means they're always kept in shape and you never have to think about booking it separately. Just mention your hedges when you ask for a quote and we'll build them into your plan.
