Overgrown Hedge Reduction in Wellington
The Brief
The customer had a large, mature hedge that had become too tall and difficult to manage on their own. Over time, it had grown beyond a practical height, making regular trimming harder and leaving the garden feeling less tidy.
They wanted the hedge reduced to a more manageable size while still keeping the natural privacy and greenery it provided.
The Challenge
This was a well established hedge that needed a careful reduction rather than a full removal. The aim was to bring the height down, straighten and shape the top, and tidy the overall appearance without making the hedge look too harsh or bare.
The customer also needed a result that would be easier to maintain going forward, helping them keep the garden looking neat without the hedge becoming overwhelming again.
The Work
The hedge was reduced in height and reshaped across the full length of the garden boundary. The top was cut back to create a cleaner, more even line, while the sides were tidied to give the hedge a smarter and more controlled finish.
All excess growth and cuttings were cleared away, leaving the garden looking much neater and more open.
The Result
The hedge now looks much tidier, more balanced and far easier to manage. By reducing the overall height, the customer can enjoy the privacy of the hedge without it taking over the garden or becoming too difficult to look after.
The finished result has made a big visual difference to the garden, giving the space a cleaner and more maintained feel.

• Reduce an overgrown hedge to a manageable height
