Hedge care for tidy boundaries and useful outdoor space
A hedge needs to work for the people using the garden. You may want a clear footpath, a more even outline or a privacy screen that no longer takes over the space. We discuss the height, width and finish you have in mind, then assess what is suitable for the existing hedge.
- Trimming hedge sides and tops to maintain an agreed shape
- Maintaining boundary hedges and privacy screens
- Managing growth beside paths, driveways and entrances
- Assessing overgrown hedges before planning a reduction
Regular maintenance or an overgrown hedge?
Regular trimming manages new growth and keeps an established outline. An overgrown hedge needs a different assessment: its species, condition and existing foliage affect how far it can be reduced and the finish that can be achieved. We will discuss those limits before agreeing on the work.
Let us know whether retaining privacy, opening a view or reclaiming garden space matters most. Photos showing the full hedge and access along both sides help us understand the job. Mention any neighbouring property, road frontage or overhead lines when enquiring.

Hedge trimming questions
How much does hedge trimming cost?
Hedge length, height, width, access and the amount of material to handle all affect the price. Include approximate dimensions when you request a free hedge trimming quote. Photos can be emailed to info@heavencontracting.co.nz. We will confirm the work and any site assessment needed.
How often does a hedge need trimming?
Timing depends on the type of hedge, its growth rate and how formal you want the finish to be. We can discuss a maintenance interval that suits your hedge and the appearance you want to retain.
Can you reduce a tall or wide hedge?
We can assess it and advise on a suitable approach. Not every hedge responds well to a substantial reduction, so the achievable height and width depend on its species and condition. Please include photos of the whole hedge with your enquiry.
