At Leicester Tree Services, hedge trimming is more than just a job; it’s a craft we’ve perfected over decades. Leicester hedge trimming is a service we’re proud to offer, ensuring your hedges look tidy and complement your garden’s style. We understand that maintaining hedges can be challenging, especially without the right tools or time. Our team uses both manual shears and motorized equipment to achieve precise, even cuts, shaping your hedge to your exact preferences. We set up guide strings to ensure straight lines, keeping the hedge wider at the bottom for optimal sunlight and privacy. After trimming, we clean up all debris, leaving your property in pristine condition. From small garden hedges to large boundary rows, we handle every project with professionalism and attention to detail.

Regular hedge trimming provides numerous benefits, and we’re here to help you enjoy them all. A well trimmed hedge not only enhances your garden’s appearance but also promotes its health and functionality. Trimming encourages new growth, prevents overgrowth, and reduces the risk of pests and diseases. It also improves sunlight access and air flow, creating a healthier environment for your plants. In Leicester, where hedges can grow quickly, trimming helps maintain privacy, improve views, and simplify garden upkeep. We work with all hedge types, including fast growing deciduous varieties like beech and privet, as well as coniferous ones like thuja and juniper. Whether you want a formal, geometric shape or a soft, natural look, we customize our services to bring your vision to life.

Knowing when to trim your hedge is essential, and we have the expertise to choose the best time for optimal results. In the UK, late winter to early spring, typically between late February and early March, is the ideal time for hedge trimming. During this period, hedges are dormant, making them less stressed by pruning and quicker to recover. Trimming before the bird nesting season begins in spring also ensures we follow wildlife protection laws, which we take seriously. Winter trimming improves visibility of the hedge’s structure, allowing us to identify and address issues like damaged branches or pests. While late winter is preferred, we can also trim in summer or fall for specific needs, such as shaping or clearing overgrowth. For formal hedges or fast growing varieties, we recommend trimming twice a year to maintain their shape and density.

Getting started with Leicester Tree Services is easy and stress free. We begin by understanding your needs, either through photos or videos you send us or by visiting your property for a free, no obligation inspection. During the inspection, we evaluate the hedge’s size, health, and any special requirements, such as complex shapes or debris removal. The price of Leicester hedge trimming depends on factors like the hedge’s size and condition, but we always provide a clear, written quote before starting work. Once we agree on the details, we can typically begin within a few days. After trimming, we handle all cleanup, either disposing of branches responsibly or grinding them into wood chips if you prefer. Our goal is to leave your garden looking beautiful and ensure you’re completely satisfied with our work.

Safety is always our top priority. Before any trimming begins, we thoroughly assess the hedge and surrounding area for potential risks, such as underground cables or unstable branches. Our team follows strict safety protocols and wears proper gear to minimize hazards. All our employees are insured for liability and personal injury, giving you peace of mind. We also conduct safety checks for every job to ensure we’re prepared for any challenges. This commitment to safety, combined with our professional approach, ensures your hedge trimming is completed efficiently and without incident.

If you need to remove a hedge, we offer expert removal services to help you clear space or address problem hedges. Hedges may need to be removed due to age, disease, or to make way for new landscaping projects. We start by checking for underground utilities to avoid damage. Then, we cut the hedge down to its roots, using tools like mini excavators or stump grinders to remove everything completely. This prevents regrowth and prepares your garden for its next step. We handle all waste disposal in an environmentally friendly way, either composting or recycling materials. Whether you’re replacing an old hedge or redesigning your garden, we make the removal process smooth and straightforward.

Our hedge trimming approach is designed to promote long term health and beauty. After trimming, we often suggest adding a light layer of compost or slow release fertilizer to support new growth. Watering well is also important to help your hedge thrive. We’re happy to share advice on caring for your hedge between trims, ensuring it stays in great shape. For hedges that require frequent maintenance, like formal or fast growing ones, we can create a trimming schedule to keep them looking pristine. Our flexibility and attention to detail make us a reliable partner for all your hedge care needs.
