Hedge trimming is a key component of owning hedges. Hedge trimming is essential not only to keep your hedges attractive, but for safety and health reasons as well. Bad weather, excess wind, or even bustling animals can cause damage to hedges. Broken branches and debris can easily fall; damaging your property, home, or even on your family. Keeping your hedges and shrubs properly trimmed will prevent damage and potential injury.

​

Hedge trimming isn’t just about safety, however; it’s essential to your hedges’ health. While it may seem counterintuitive to cut the very same plants you spent valuable time growing, it is actually vital to keeping hedges living long. Removing dead, damaged or diseased growth will help clear the way for new growth and will help prevent the onset of a plant disease, mold, or bugs. After each hedge trimming, your hedge will concentrate its energy on new growth, creating a healthier appearance overall.

​

Regular hedge trimming can also contribute to improved privacy. If you want to protect your home and yard from the gaze of neighbors and passersby, it is advisable that you call in the experts.
