Common questions about garden hedge trimming in Ballyjamesduff
How often should I trim my hedges?
For most garden hedges in Ballyjamesduff, once a year in late spring is enough. Fast-growing ones like leylandii may need a second trim in early autumn to keep them tight.
Do you trim hedges in winter?
We avoid heavy trimming in the coldest months because frost can damage new cuts. However, we can do light tidying on mild days, especially for evergreen hedges that don’t go dormant.
What if my hedge is very overgrown?
We can still bring it back into shape, but it might need a hard prune over two seasons. We’ll be honest about what’s possible and give you a clear plan before starting.
Do you clear up the clippings?
Yes, we take all clippings and debris away with us, no mess left behind. If you want to keep some for mulch, just let us know and we’ll leave a pile.
