A Quick Guide To Hedge Trimming Services

From mighty trees to luscious rolling fields, green spaces make up much of the UK’s land. What’s more, many businesses, estates and sports grounds are fortunate enough to be situated among such greenery. For landowners and managers, their premises are often a source of great pride and should be properly cared for. This care, of course, includes the hedges that adorn the land.

Hedges often border a premises, framing your property and creating a lasting impression for guests, visitors and passers-by. As with a painting, the quality of the frame can either enhance or detract from the art itself, so ensuring your hedges look wonderful all year round will ensure your grounds always look their very best.

Here at GMCB Ltd, we’ve put together a brief guide to hedge trimming services. Read on to find out more.

Why Is Hedge Trimming Important?

First up, it’s worth understanding why hedge trimming is carried out. Unlike pruning, which focuses on the hedge's health and the safety of passers-by, maintenance trimming is conducted to keep the hedges looking their best. After all, beautifully kept hedges are a pleasure to look at and can really neaten up a property.

The Benefits To Business

So, how can well-kept hedges benefit your business? Whether you own commercial premises, manage an estate or maintain a sports ground, ensuring your hedge rows are trimmed and presentable is sure to work in your favour.

For businesses and commercial properties, first impressions really do count, so ensuring your grounds are properly maintained is a must. Hedges are often the first and last things seen by visitors of your premises; keeping them in pristine condition shows real attention to detail and can help to establish a reputation for excellence. What’s more, beautifully trimmed hedges will never go unnoticed. Formal hedgerows bordering your grounds can help to create a feeling of natural tranquillity and calm.

When To Get Your Hedges Trimmed

During the first few years after planting, young hedges will need to be tended to and pruned more regularly. This formative pruning typically takes place in the colder months such as winter or spring. However, once your hedges have grown past their early years, maintenance trimming will only need to take place once or twice a year, depending on the desired formality of the hedgerow.

For businesses, estates and commercial premises, employing the services of a professional hedge-trimming company will ensure your green spaces, borders and hedgerows are looking their best all year round.
