Shrub & Hedge Trimming
Professional shrub and hedge trimming services to keep your landscape neat, healthy, and beautiful.
Keep Your Shrubs and Hedges Looking Sharp
Well-maintained shrubs and hedges transform your property. They create privacy, define spaces, and add structure to your landscape. But left untrimmed, they become overgrown, messy, and unhealthy. Regular professional trimming keeps them dense, shapely, and vibrant. It also prevents common problems like pest infestations, disease, and damage to fences or structures.
In Hacienda Heights, many homes feature beautiful hedges and ornamental shrubs that need regular attention. Our climate allows year-round growth, which means your plants need frequent trimming to stay in shape. We know exactly how and when to trim each species for the best results. Whether you have formal boxwood hedges, casual flowering shrubs, or native California plants, we have the expertise to maintain your landscape perfectly.

Timing Your Hedge and Shrub Trimming
Timing matters with shrub trimming. Formal hedges need trimming every 4 to 8 weeks during the growing season to maintain their shape. Flowering shrubs require careful timing so you don't cut off next season's blooms. Some bloom on new wood and can be trimmed anytime, while others bloom on old wood and should only be trimmed after flowering.
We create custom trimming schedules based on your specific plants and your aesthetic goals. Regular maintenance keeps shrubs at the right size and promotes healthy, dense growth. If your shrubs have gotten out of control, we can perform renovation pruning to bring them back to a manageable size. This aggressive pruning stimulates new growth from the base, rejuvenating tired, overgrown plants. For comprehensive landscape care, combine our shrub services with tree trimming and pruning.
Creating Privacy with Hedges
Privacy hedges are one of the best investments you can make in your property. They block views, reduce noise, and create a natural barrier that's more attractive than fencing. But privacy hedges only work if they're properly maintained. Gaps and thin spots defeat the purpose. Regular trimming keeps hedges dense and full from top to bottom.
We trim privacy hedges to maintain their density while controlling their width. Hedges that are allowed to grow too wide encroach on usable space. We can keep them at any width you prefer while maintaining full coverage. If you're planning new hedges, our arborist consulting services can help you choose the right species and plan proper spacing.
