Sage from Top to Bottom Hedging did an amazing unsupervised job on my scraggly overgrown flowering (Privet) hedges...they look terrific. He also trimmed the box hedge which now looks fabulous. He is happy honest, very professional and text me to keep in touch so I knew what was happening. Can't ask for much more than that! I will definitely have Sage back to continue to look after the hedging.

Sage, thanks for a great job on our hedges.

Sage is a superstar! I had an enormous wild hedge surrounding the whole of my property and Sage has made it look beautiful again. He was very knowledgeable, professional and tidied up afterwards. I will most certainly be using him again in the future. I highly recommend him.
What we do:
We specialise in trimming hedges, while providing quotes, height reductions, restorations, topiary, one-off jobs and the removal of green waste after hedging.
Typically, our hedging service range from Buxus hedges that frame pathways or low borders to hedges up to a height of 3 meters (8 ft.) such as the Pittosporum, Photinia or Cherry Laurel. When hedges get above a certain height, ladders, planks, and extension pole trimmers are required to access hard to reach areas.
As such, we take the hard work out of making your property look fantastic, and in the process, freeing up your time to spend on the things that matter most to you.
WHY SHOULD I TRIM MY HEDGES?
Hedging is essentially the pruning of your plants to stimulate growth, modify shape and rejuvenate the health of your asset by cutting out dead wood, old growth and unwanted branches and leaves. When you prune your hedges, you keep them in shape and make them grow much thicker.
Typically, a hedge not trimmed grows too much at the top (top heavy), while the middle section becomes thin, and less dense - giving it a lop-sided, uneven appearance. To avoid this (or rectify), we cut the unwanted growth from the tops - which thickens the middle section of the plant - to have an attractive, symmetrical looking hedge. To complete this uniformity, your hedge will need to be trimmed from the sides, bottom and ends for a well proportioned and beautiful looking asset.
If you leave your hedge grow too much your asset becomes unsightly, and in the process, ends up costing you lots of money to have height reductions, heavy cuts or pruning to cut out dead wood

WHEN SHOULD I TRIM MY HEDGES?
If your hedges have become suddenly unmanageable, Top to Bottom Hedging can bring them back into shape. This typically happens after lots of rain, rapid growth during the warmer months, or if your asset has not been maintained with regular trimming. If this is the case, you can have a one-off job, or we can maintain your hedges on a regular basis. We can also prune your young hedging plants to stimulate growth, thickness and shape.
Trimming should be undertaken 2-4 times per year - depending on your plant. For instance, the Layton Green should be cut twice a year, in summer and late autumn, while other plants, such as the Pittosporum, can be trimmed regularly. If in doubt, the general rule is you should prune your plants after they finish flowering.
Seasonally, you will trim them in autumn, late spring and summer; winter should be designated for rejuvenation work: height reductions and cutting out dead wood - seeing as the plants are in their dormancy phase. However, if your hedge is drastically out of shape, it needs trimming!
