Expert solutions for your hedging needs. Our hedging services will get your prized shrubs and hedges looking trim (pardon the pun) and terrific.
What is hedging?
Hedging is the process of trimming and manicuring a bush or shrub to keep it looking neat, out of pathways, and healthy.
Types of hedges
Hedges can vary from hedging that follows a fence line to create privacy, to standalone hedges that are more of a feature. The type of hedge as a plant itself varies too, with the likes of lilly pilly, rosemary, sweet viburnum, and orange jasmine some of the more popular hedge varieties in Perth.
Privacy & security
Hedging can act as a great privacy screen for blocking out nosey neighbours or passers-by. They’re also more of a deterrent than fences due to the scratch-factor – crims are probably less likely to jump over a prickly shrub than an easy-to-scale gate or wall!
Aesthetic appeal
A well-maintained hedge can be more aesthetically pleasing than a fence, and is a popular divide between front yards and footpaths. They also work well to mask an existing, unsightly fence, injecting green and vibrancy to your space.
Techniques and tools used in hedging
When performing our hedging magic, we use a variety of tools to get the job done right.
Hand tools
These can include shears, secateurs, pruners, clippers and saws, depending on the size of the hedge and the result you require.
Powered tools
A powered hedge trimmer saves time, saves our arms, and produces a clean, sharp finish on your hedge. There is a huge variety of different hedge trimmers available, including telescopic ones to reach the highest of heights (which we have).
After-care for your hedge
After getting your hedges trimmed and manicured, it’s a good idea to promote growth with a fertiliser and some mulch. Check with your nursery what the best kind of fertiliser is depending on your plant variety, and away you go.
Choosing a hedging service
Prior to choosing which hedging service you’ll go with, it’s a good idea to ask a few questions first. We're ready to answer any of these questions!
