Hedge Trimming & Reductions in North Yorkshire

Neat, healthy boundary hedges - trimming, reductions and maintenance on the right cycle for the species.

What it involves

Trimming, shaping and reduction of hedges, including conifer and mixed hedges, on a schedule that fits the species' growth rate.

When you need it

Conifer hedges need two to three trims a year; mixed hedges one. Skip a season and you are looking at a major cutback rather than a tidy-up.

Worth knowing before you book

Check for nesting birds before any hedge work - cutting hedges with active nests is a wildlife offence. Ask about waste: clippings should be removed or chipped, not dumped.

What it typically costs

Hedge work is usually priced by the metre or the hour - from around £50 for small trims (a figure quoted in York) up to several hundred for tall, dense conifer reductions.

Questions to ask any firm

  • Is the price per metre or per hour?
  • How is the waste handled?
  • Have they checked for nesting birds?
