Neat, healthy hedges across Greater Manchester
A good hedge gives privacy, shelter and a softer boundary than a fence, but it needs regular cutting to stay dense and in shape. Left for a few seasons, it can swallow a path, shade the garden and become a big job.
We trim and reduce hedges of all kinds for homes and businesses across Manchester, from front garden privet and box to tall leylandii and mixed boundary hedges.

Trimming or reducing your hedge
Not every hedge needs the same treatment. Here is the difference between the two jobs we are asked for most.
A regular trim
The sides and top are cut back to the previous shape, keeping the hedge dense and neat. Most hedges benefit from this once or twice a year.
A reduction
An overgrown hedge is cut back harder in height or width. Some species regrow well from old wood, while conifers such as leylandii will not, so we only cut back as far as the hedge can recover from.
A staged reduction
Where a hedge needs a big cut, it can be done one side at a time over separate visits, which gives the plants a better chance of filling back in.

Pricing
What affects the cost of hedge cutting
We price hedge cutting once we have seen the hedge and how far it needs to go back. The visit and written quote cost nothing.
- The length and height of the hedge
- Whether it is a trim or a hard reduction
- Access to both sides and the top
- The type of hedge
- The volume of green waste to take away
How we carry out the work
How we cut a hedge
No pressure at any stage, and nothing is booked until you have the price in writing.
Check for nesting birds
Hedges are favourite nesting spots, so we check carefully before cutting, especially in spring and summer.
Protect the area below
Sheets are laid along the base where possible so clippings do not end up in borders, gravel or on the lawn.
Cut to a clean, even line
Sides are cut slightly narrower at the top than the bottom so light reaches the base and the hedge stays thick lower down.
Clear and take away
Clippings are collected, paths and drives are swept, and all the green waste is loaded and taken away.
