Shrub & Hedge Trimming

Keep Your Shrubs and Hedges Looking Great

Well-trimmed shrubs and hedges make a huge difference in how your property looks. They frame your home, define spaces, and create clean lines that boost curb appeal. But keeping them shaped and healthy takes regular attention. Overgrown hedges look messy and block light. Neglected shrubs lose their form and can develop dead spots.

We provide professional shrub and hedge trimming throughout Chino Hills. Whether you have formal hedges that need precise shaping or casual foundation plantings that just need tidying up, we handle it all. Our team knows how different plants grow and what they need to stay healthy and attractive. We trim at the right time of year using proper techniques that encourage dense growth and prevent damage.

Why Regular Trimming Matters

Regular trimming is not just about looks, although that is a big part of it. Here is what proper shrub and hedge maintenance does for your property:

• Maintains clean, defined shapes that enhance your landscape design
• Encourages dense, healthy growth by removing dead and weak branches
• Prevents shrubs from blocking windows, walkways, or views
• Keeps hedges from getting so thick they are hard to manage
• Improves air circulation to reduce disease and pest problems
• Adds to your home's curb appeal and property value

When to Trim Shrubs and Hedges

Timing depends on what kind of plants you have. Spring-flowering shrubs should be trimmed right after they bloom, so you do not cut off next year's flowers. Summer-blooming varieties get trimmed in late winter or early spring before new growth starts. Evergreen hedges can be trimmed several times during the growing season to maintain their shape.

Most shrubs and hedges benefit from at least annual trimming, and formal hedges often need attention two or three times per year. If your hedges are getting out of hand, we can bring them back to size. Just keep in mind that severe cutting back is best done gradually over a couple of seasons to avoid shocking the plants. We work with your schedule and your plants needs to keep everything looking its best. Just like with tree trimming, the right timing makes all the difference.

How We Handle Your Hedge Trimming

We start by looking at what you have and what you want to achieve. Some people want formal, geometric hedges. Others prefer a more natural look. We trim accordingly, using the right tools and techniques for each situation. Hand shears give precise control for detailed work. Power trimmers make quick work of long hedge runs while maintaining clean lines.

We always clean up thoroughly when we finish. All trimmings are collected and hauled away, leaving your yard neat and tidy. If you have other landscape needs, we can coordinate with that work too. Many of our clients combine hedge trimming with tree services to get their whole property maintained in one visit.
