A good hedge is the first thing people notice about a property, and a bad one is the first thing they remember. Greater Sydney Landscapes provides hedge trimming in Sydney for homeowners in The Hills, Hornsby, Dural, Parramatta and the Inner West, from a quick tidy of a lilly pilly screen to bringing an overgrown boundary hedge back to a manageable height.
Formal hedge trimming and shaping
Formal hedges only look right when the top is level and the faces are straight. We set string lines, work from the top down, and shape buxus, murraya, viburnum and photinia hedges so they read as one clean line from the street. Regular trimming two to four times a year keeps the hedge dense and stops it getting woody in the middle.
Height reduction for overgrown hedges and screens
Lilly pilly and leighton green screens in The Hills and Hornsby can put on a metre a year. If yours has crept past the fence line or is shading the yard, we can reduce it in stages so it recovers well, square up the sides, and bring it back onto a maintenance schedule. We use pole hedgers and platforms for taller screens, and we take every bit of the clippings away.
Hedge trimming for The Hills, Hornsby and Dural gardens
Established gardens in Castle Hill, Baulkham Hills, Kellyville, Hornsby and Dural tend to have more hedging than the average Sydney block, so we often combine hedge trimming with garden maintenance and lawn mowing on a single visit. One crew, one invoice, and a property that looks consistently kept rather than trimmed in pieces.

Hedge Trimming FAQs
How often should hedges be trimmed in Sydney?
Fast growers like lilly pilly and murraya look best trimmed three to four times a year. Slower formal hedges such as buxus usually need two to three trims. We can set this up as part of a regular maintenance schedule.
Can you reduce the height of a very overgrown hedge?
Yes. Most hedges can be brought down in one or two stages depending on the species and how far back we need to go. We will tell you honestly if a hedge is too far gone to recover.
Do you do hedge trimming and pressure washing in the Inner West?
We do. We service Strathfield, Burwood, Ashfield, Marrickville and surrounds for hedge trimming, garden tidy-ups and pressure washing, often on the same visit.
Do you take the hedge clippings away?
Always. Green waste removal is part of every hedge trimming job, and we blow down paths and driveways before we leave.
