Most evergreen hedges, such as Leylandii or Laurel, can grow by up to 3 feet per year. If left for just two seasons without professional trimming, they can quickly become "woody," making it impossible to return them to a narrow width without leaving permanent brown patches.
The "Little and Often" rule is a financial strategy. Regular, precision trimming maintains the "green line"—the thin layer of foliage that protects your privacy. Once you cut past this into the old wood, many species will not regenerate.
Precision offers scheduled maintenance to:
• Maintain strictly defined boundaries.
• Prevent the encroachment on pavements or neighbouring properties.
• Ensure your hedge remains a dense, green wall rather than an unmanageable thicket.
Save on future hard-reduction costs and unnecessary wildlife disruption with regular and light maintenance:
