What clients say
Hedge Trimming Melbourne — common questions
How tall a hedge can you trim?
Tall privacy screens up to 10 metres. Large conifer and boundary hedges are the jobs we are set up for.
Can you bring an overgrown hedge back under control?
Yes — a hard reduction (rejuvenation pruning) cuts an overgrown hedge back so it can regrow dense and even. We assess the species and its growth stage first, because some hedges take a hard cut better than others.
Do you offer regular hedge maintenance?
Yes. Seasonal, timely cuts encourage healthy, even growth, and some customers have us back on a regular schedule. One-off jobs are just as welcome.
Do you clean up the trimmings?
Always. Every job includes a full clean-up — the trimmings are chipped or removed and the site is left tidy.
