WHAT IT COSTS
Prices for this work
Pricing for Queen Edith's hedges
£4 per metre up to 2m, £8 above. A 30m beech hedge at standard height costs £120 per trim. Many Queen Edith's hedges exceed 2m and fall into the higher band. The rate reflects extra time, height work, and waste volume.
Clippings removal is included. On long hedge runs the volume is significant and is cleared the same day.
Maintaining heritage hedging
Mature hedges that have been growing for 40 years or more need careful handling. Hard cutting into old bare wood on beech and yew causes permanent gaps. A consistent annual or biannual trim maintains the shape without exposing the interior.

Yes. Queen Edith's often has boundary hedges of 30m or more. These are priced at the standard per-metre rate. A long run is straightforward when the hedge is trimmed regularly.
Late August is best for beech. A late-summer trim encourages the hedge to retain its brown leaves through winter, giving privacy and wind protection. A spring trim removes any remaining dead leaves before fresh growth.
