Hedge Trimming
Domestic hedges shaped cleanly, cuttings tidied and removed.
ELawnCare trims hedges in Waterbeach at £4 per metre for hedges up to 2m and £8 per metre above. All clippings removed.
Waterbeach has both mature village hedging and young hedging on the new development. Established hedges need consistent trimming to maintain shape. Young hedging needs regular light cuts to encourage dense, bushy growth from the base upward.

£4 per metre up to 2m. Clippings removed. No callout charge. Both mature village hedges and young hedging on the development are trimmed at the same per-metre rate.
New hedging on developments benefits from regular light trimming in its first few years. This encourages branching from the base and produces a thicker, denser hedge than leaving it to grow tall before the first cut. Little and often is the approach that works.

Yes. Light trimming in the first few years encourages dense growth from the base. Leaving new hedging to grow tall before cutting produces a leggy, thin hedge that takes years to fill out properly.
Twice a year for most species: late spring and late summer. Young hedging can be trimmed a little more frequently in the growing season. Nesting birds are checked before any work between March and August.
