Hedge trimming

Hedges with edges you could set your watch by

A well-cut hedge does more than look smart — it stays dense, healthy and wind-proof instead of going leggy and gappy. Canterbury’s fast-growing shelter species like macrocarpa, leylandii, pittosporum and photinia can put on startling growth over a single spring, and once a hedge gets away from you it takes real work (and sometimes heavy reduction) to bring it back. Regular trimming keeps it easy: two tidy cuts a year beats one rescue mission.

JJ’s Tree Services trims everything from low boundary hedges to tall shelterbelts that need ladders and pole gear. Ornamental shapes, rounded bays, formal lines — if it grows, we can shape it. And because hedges are only half the job, every trim includes the clean-up: clippings raked, swept and taken away so the section looks instantly better, not like a green bomb went off.

A note on nesting birds

Spring hedges often hide nests. We check before we cut and will happily schedule around fledglings — a couple of weeks’ patience keeps both the hedge and its residents in good shape.
