Hedges we trim on the Gold Coast

The most common hedges on the Coast are lilly pilly, murraya (orange jessamine), viburnum, photinia, buxus, duranta and clipped conifers, along with screening plants such as bamboo and golden cane palms. Each grows at a different rate and responds differently to cutting. Lilly pilly and murraya, for example, can be trimmed hard and often, while photinia and viburnum are best shaped little and often to avoid bare patches. We know how each species behaves in Gold Coast conditions and trim accordingly.

Regular hedge maintenance

A hedge that is trimmed every six to ten weeks through the growing season stays dense, holds its shape and never needs a drastic cut-back. We can put your hedges on a regular schedule, on their own or combined with lawn mowing and garden maintenance, so one crew keeps the whole property looking sharp. Every visit includes trimming, shaping, clean-up of clippings and removal of green waste.

Overgrown hedge restoration

If a hedge has been left for a year or two it will usually have grown out of shape, gone thin at the bottom and started blocking paths, windows or driveways. We cut overgrown hedges back in stages where needed so the plant recovers, reshape them to a manageable size, and tidy up the surrounding beds. Once it is back under control, a regular trim keeps it there.

Hedge trimming for body corporates and commercial properties

Hedges along driveways, boundaries and building frontages are a big part of how a complex or business presents. We provide scheduled hedge maintenance for body corporates and commercial sites with a fixed price, a written scope and full insurance. We use quiet STIHL battery hedge trimmers, which matters in unit complexes and near offices and medical practices.

Frequently asked questions about hedge trimming

How much does hedge trimming cost on the Gold Coast?

It depends on the length and height of the hedge, how overgrown it is and how much green waste there is to remove. Most residential hedges are quoted as a fixed price from a couple of photos. Send us the address and photos and we will give you a price, usually within one business day.

How often should hedges be trimmed?

Every six to ten weeks from spring to autumn keeps most Gold Coast hedges tidy. Slow growers such as buxus and conifers can go longer. In winter, most hedges only need one or two trims.

Can you trim tall hedges?

Yes, as long as they can be reached safely from the ground, ladders or platforms. Very tall hedges or trees that need climbing are best handled by an arborist, and we will tell you if that is the case.

Do you take the clippings away?

Yes. All clippings are removed and the area is cleaned up before we leave.

When is the best time to cut a hedge back hard?

Late winter or early spring, just before the main growth flush, so the plant recovers quickly. We will advise if a hedge needs to be brought back in stages.
