Hedge Trimming & Hedge Reduction in Greater Manchester & Lancashire

We trim, shape and reduce hedges of all sizes, from a garden privet to a row of 20-foot conifers. Regular trimming keeps hedges dense and healthy; a height reduction brings back light to an overgrown garden. All cuttings are taken away.

HEDGES WE CUT

  • Leylandii and other conifers
  • Laurel
  • Privet
  • Beech and hornbeam
  • Hawthorn and mixed native hedges
  • Holly, yew and box

OUR HEDGE SERVICES

  • Routine trimming: tops and sides cut straight, once or twice a year
  • Height reduction: bringing tall hedges down to a manageable height using platforms or ladders
  • Width reduction: cutting back hedges that have spread over paths, drives or boundaries
  • Hedge removal: removing hedges completely, including grinding out the roots

TALL AND OVERGROWN CONIFER HEDGES

Leylandii grows quickly and gets out of hand fast. It can be reduced in height, but it won't regrow from old brown wood, so the sides need cutting carefully. We'll tell you honestly what's achievable before we start.

FREQUENTLY
ASKED QUESTIONS

[    F.A.Q    ]
When should hedges be cut?
Most hedges benefit from a trim in late spring and again in late summer. Before cutting during bird nesting season (roughly March to August) we check for active nests, which are protected by law.
Do you take away the cuttings?
Yes, all green waste is removed.
Do I need to be home for the quote?
As long as we have clear access to the garden, we can often provide an estimate without you being present.
Is any job too small?
No, we handle everything from minor branch pruning and hedge tidying to full-scale tree removals.
Do I need permission to cut down or prune a tree?
Sometimes. If a tree has a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) or is in a conservation area, you need your local council's consent before most work. We check this before starting and can advise you on the application.
Which areas do you cover?
We're based in the borough of Bury and cover Greater Manchester and Lancashire, including Bury, Ramsbottom, Rochdale, Bolton, Manchester, Rossendale and Darwen.
Do you take the waste away?
Yes. All branches, logs and green waste are removed and the area is cleaned up, unless you'd like to keep the logs or woodchip.
