What We Trim and Prune
Hedges
We shape privacy hedges and borders with straight, even lines. Your yard looks sharp from the street and from your porch.
Shrubs and Bushes
We cut back overgrown bushes that block windows, walkways, or your view. Each one gets shaped to fit your home and your style.
Flowering Shrubs
We prune azaleas and other flowering shrubs at the right time of year. That way, they stay full and bloom well next season.
Why Regular Trimming Pays Off
Trimmed shrubs grow thicker and fuller over time. Regular care also lets more light and air reach the inside of the plant, which helps keep it healthy.
Neat hedges lift your curb appeal right away. They also keep branches off your siding, gutters, and walkways.

Hedge Trimming FAQs
What is the difference between hedge trimming and pruning?
Hedge trimming shapes the outside of a hedge or shrub for clean, even lines. Pruning removes select branches to keep the plant healthy, full, and growing the right way.
When is the best time to trim hedges?
Most evergreen hedges do best with a trim in late winter or early spring and a light shaping in summer. Flowering shrubs like azaleas are best pruned right after they bloom.
How often should my shrubs be trimmed?
Most yards look their best with two or three trims a year. Fast growers may need a visit more often.
Do you clean up the clippings?
Yes. We gather every clipping and blow off your hard surfaces before we leave.
Can you bring back a badly overgrown hedge?
Often, yes. We cut it back in stages when needed, so the shrub stays healthy while it fills back in.
Do you trim hedges for HOAs and businesses?
Yes. We keep entrances, common areas, and storefront beds neat for HOAs and commercial properties.
Do you trim trees?
We focus on hedges and shrubs. For large trees or limbs high overhead, a certified arborist is the right call.
How much does hedge trimming cost?
Your price depends on how many shrubs you have, their size, and how overgrown they are. You get a free, clear quote before any work starts.
