A hedge task or part of the whole tidy-up?
Hedge work needs room to work as well as a clear idea of the finish. We look at the hedge and the growth around it, keeping the planting you want retained in the plan. Where a garden has become overgrown, we first open enough space to work safely. An ivy-covered weak fence needs assessment before we recommend cutting back; it is not treated as an ordinary hedge trim.
How we carry out the hedge work
We agree the hedge work before starting and use our professional hedge trimmers, secateurs and loppers for the tasks in the quotation. Cutting follows the shape and priorities we have discussed. If we find work beyond the agreed trim, we discuss it before adding it to the job.
What's included
Hedge care with a garden tidy
We can combine hedge trimming with mowing, weeding and suitable shrub pruning under the maintenance hourly rate. The visit follows the agreed priorities.
Clippings and paths
We gather hedge clippings and sweep the garden paths after the work. Any green-waste collection is charged separately.
What it costs
The garden-maintenance hourly rate covers this work. Subject to assessment from photos or a visit. The quotation confirms the hours and any separately agreed extras.
What's extra
Ivy on a weak fence is a problem to assess before recommending work; it is not automatically treated as ordinary hedge shaping. Larger tree work, climbing work and stump removal are separate from routine hedge care.
