Walsall has a good spread of housing, from terraces close to the centre to inter-war semis and larger estates further out, and almost every garden has a hedge of some kind. When they get ahead of themselves they shade windows, narrow paths and hide the front of the house. We cut them back and leave a smart, level edge.
Our visits can be one-off or regular. Either way we trim the sides and the top, collect all the clippings and sweep up. You are left with a hedge that looks right and a garden that is ready to use.
The inter-war semis and later estates around Walsall often have a hedge on each side of a short front garden, plus a longer one down the back. These are usually privet, laurel or mixed hedging. We cut each face straight and level, taking particular care at the corners, which are the first places a hedge looks untidy. A crisp corner is what the eye catches first from the street.
If you have a pair of hedges either side of a path, we match their height and width so the entrance looks balanced. It is a small detail, but it makes a big difference to how the house looks from the road, and it gives you a simple standard to keep to when later visits are due. It also gives you an easy standard to keep to at each later visit.
Many Walsall gardens have mature trees, and the Arboretum is a reminder of how well greenery grows in this area. Trees close to a hedge create shade and drop debris into it, so the growth beneath can be thin. We trim in a way that helps these areas fill out, and we remove fallen leaves from the base. It is a small job that makes a visible difference.
Where a boundary hedge has been neglected for a long time, we do not take it back all at once. Cutting too hard in one go can leave bare patches that take a while to recover. We plan a firm but sensible reduction, and we explain it before we start so that you know what to expect. A steady approach gives you a better hedge in the end.
We keep to the edges of your property and protect lawns, borders and paths while we work in Walsall. Hedges are checked for nesting birds before cutting, and any active nest is left alone. All clippings are bagged and removed. We also cover Bloxwich, Aldridge and Pelsall, so neighbours can arrange visits together if they like. Everything is left tidy.
Based in Hall Green, so we are never far from the gardens we work in.
We look at the job before we price it, so you know what is involved.
Branches, clippings and rubbish from our jobs are cleared and the garden left tidy.

We match the height and width of both hedges so the entrance looks balanced, cutting each face straight and the tops level. This is a common job on semis and estates, and it takes very little extra time.
We will look at how much green growth is left and reduce it in sensible stages. Cutting back too hard at once can leave bare patches. We explain the plan before starting, so you know how it will look over the coming season.
Yes. Trees shade a hedge and drop leaves into it, so we trim to even out the shape and clear debris from the base. If the tree itself needs attention, we can look at that as a separate job.
