If your boundary hedges have grown too tall and become difficult to manage, now is the perfect time to give them a substantial reduction.

Hedge reduction is essential for maintaining a neat, healthy garden while preventing excessive shading and overgrowth. However, reducing a hedge correctly depends on its type and requires the right approach. That’s where nicenstripy can help! Our expert team specialises in hedge reduction, offering professional services along with free advice and quotes to ensure your hedges are trimmed safely and effectively.

Why Reduce Your Hedge?
Overgrown hedges can block light, encroach on pathways, and create an untidy appearance. Reducing their height and width improves their look, makes future maintenance easier, and helps promote better plant health by allowing more airflow and sunlight. A well-maintained hedge also enhances your garden’s overall aesthetics and prevents potential disputes with neighbors over encroachment.

The Best Time for Hedge Reduction
The best time to reduce a hedge depends on its species:

• Deciduous Hedges (such as beech or hawthorn) should be cut back in late autumn or winter while dormant, allowing for strong regrowth in spring.
• Evergreen Hedges (such as leylandii or laurel) are best reduced in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Since evergreens can be sensitive to drastic cuts, Nicenstripy’s experts can guide you on the best approach to avoid stressing the plants.
• Flowering Hedges (such as privet or escallonia) should be trimmed after flowering to avoid removing next season’s blooms.
