Height, shape and width — the three ways a hedge stops being an asset and starts being a job.
Garden hedges can provide privacy and an attractive natural boundary, but their appearance depends heavily on regular maintenance.
When cutting is missed, new growth can make a hedge increasingly tall, wide and difficult to manage.
J Lamb Tree Surgery provides professional hedge maintenance in Hengrove, from routine cutting to tackling larger overgrown hedges.
Routine cutting helps maintain the established shape and size of a hedge.
The amount of work required depends on how quickly the hedge grows and how regularly it has previously been maintained.
Hedges don't always grow evenly.
Professional trimming can help restore a cleaner outline where new growth has left a hedge looking untidy.
A hedge can reach a height where routine DIY maintenance becomes impractical.
Where appropriate, we can assess excessive height and discuss reduction.
A hedge can also gradually expand further into the garden.
Managing excessive width can help recover usable outdoor space and restore a more defined boundary.
If you're planning new fencing or a wider garden makeover, existing hedge growth may need attention first.
J Lamb also provides garden clearance, fencing and turfing.
We can bring overgrown hedges back under control when preparing rental gardens for new occupants or general property maintenance.
Tell us the approximate length and height of the hedge and when it was last cut.
