Hedge & Shrub Trimming Services

Well-maintained hedges and shrubs are the framework of a polished, professional landscape - and regular professional trimming is essential for keeping them healthy, shapely, and beautiful throughout Idaho's growing season. Our expert hedge and shrub trimming service combines horticultural knowledge with commercial-grade equipment and precise techniques to deliver results that dramatically enhance your property's curb appeal and plant vitality. Whether you need formal boxwood hedges trimmed to architectural perfection, privacy hedges maintained at optimal height and density, or flowering shrubs strategically pruned to maximize blooms, our experienced team has the expertise to handle every species and style in your landscape.

Proper hedge trimming is both an art and a science. Unlike simple mowing where one technique works for all grass, different shrub species require specific timing, tools, and techniques for optimal results. Spring-flowering shrubs like lilacs, forsythia, and mockorange must be trimmed immediately after flowering or you'll remove next year's blooms.

Summer-flowering shrubs like roses and butterfly bushes are pruned in early spring before growth begins. Evergreen hedges like arborvitae, juniper, and boxwood are best shaped in late spring after the first flush of growth, then touched up mid-summer if needed for dense growth. We track the timing for each plant type to optimize health and appearance.

Equipment matters significantly. Consumer-grade hedge trimmers and dull blades create ragged cuts that turn brown, invite disease, and slow plant recovery. Our commercial gas-powered hedge trimmers with razor-sharp blades make clean, precise cuts that heal quickly and promote vigorous new growth.
