Hedge Cutting & Pruning

Hedges define boundaries, enhance privacy, and add structure to your outdoor space — but without regular pruning, they quickly become unruly. At Tree Kings Tree Care, we provide expert hedge cutting and pruning services across East Sussex to keep your hedges healthy, shapely, and under control.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q.  What’s the difference between cutting and pruning?A. Hedge cutting generally refers to shaping and tidying, while pruning targets specific branches to improve health, light access, or structure.
Q.  How often should hedges be trimmed?A. Fast-growing hedges like leylandii may need cutting 2–3 times per year, while others like beech or yew can be trimmed once or twice.
Q.  Can you restore overgrown or damaged hedges?A. Yes — we can reduce height, reshape sides, and gradually bring neglected hedges back into a manageable form over time.
Q.  Do you cut hedges during bird nesting season?A. We avoid hedge work during nesting season (March–August) unless a thorough check confirms no active nests are present. Wildlife comes first.
Q.  What equipment do you use? A. We use professional-grade hedge trimmers, loppers, and access equipment for tall hedges — all safely operated by experienced staff.
Q.  Do you remove all hedge trimmings?A. Yes. We take away and recycle all green waste unless you request that we leave it for composting or mulching.
