Hedge trimming, reshaping and reduction, plus shrub and rose pruning, keeping boundaries and borders tidy across Ealing.
Our approach
We trim formal and informal hedges to crisp, even lines, and carry out height and width reductions where a hedge has outgrown its space.
Pruning is timed to the plant - shrubs that flower on new wood are cut back at the right moment, and those that flower on old wood are left to bloom first.
We shape roses, train climbers and keep shrubs within bounds without butchering them, so they flower and fill out as they should.
The material palette
Hedge cutting
Formal and informal hedges trimmed to clean lines, conifer and leylandii reductions.
Shrub pruning
Formative and corrective pruning timed to each plant's flowering habit.
Rose care
Annual pruning of shrub and climbing roses for shape and repeat flowering.
Tidy & removal
All clippings cleared and removed from site, hedges swept clean.
Ealing, specifically
Fast-growing leylandii and boundary hedges are common in Ealing and quickly block light if left. An annual cut keeps them in check and on the right side of neighbourly.
Frequently asked questions
How often should a hedge be trimmed?
Most formal hedges need one or two cuts a year; fast-growing conifers like leylandii may need an annual reduction to stay manageable.
When is the best time to prune?
It depends on the plant. We time pruning to each species' flowering habit so you don't lose the next display.
Can you reduce a hedge that's too tall?
Yes. We reduce height and width carefully, though some conifers won't regrow from old wood, so we advise before cutting.
