Hedge trimming and shrub pruning

Shrubs and small trees are an investment. Pruned at the right time and in the right way, they stay healthy and in proportion. Sheared hard at the wrong time, they can lose a season of flowers or open up to disease.

We shape hedges and foundation shrubs, thin overgrown plants, and prune small ornamental trees to clear walks, windows, signs and sight lines. On commercial sites that means keeping entrances visible and walkways clear, which is both a safety and a security issue.

Timing depends on the plant. Spring-flowering shrubs are usually pruned right after they bloom; many others are best shaped in late winter or during the growing season. We plan pruning around that so plants look their best.

Overgrown properties are a common starting point. We can do a one-time cleanup to bring beds and shrubs back under control, then keep them that way with scheduled visits.

Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to trim hedges?

It depends on the plant. We schedule each type at the right time of year.

Do you remove large trees?

Large tree removal is specialized work. We handle shrubs and small ornamentals and can recommend an arborist for big trees.
