Hedge Trimming in Alpharetta, GA

Professional Hedge Trimming in Alpharetta, GA

Overgrown hedges are one of the most common eyesores we see on Alpharetta properties. Builder-grade ligustrums, hollies, and boxwoods planted 15 years ago in Windward and North Point communities have tripled in size without consistent shaping. What was supposed to be a foundation planting now blocks windows, crowds walkways, and makes the whole front of the house look buried. A proper trimming restores structure and lets the architecture breathe again.

Hedge trimming requires understanding each plant species. Boxwoods tolerate tight shearing. Hollies respond to selective hand pruning for the cleanest results. Ligustrums can be shaped hard but need the right timing to avoid triggering excessive regrowth. Photinias and Indian hawthorne need lighter shaping to maintain their natural form. We know the difference and work accordingly on every plant we touch.

Timing matters. Most ornamental shrubs in Alpharetta should be shaped in late winter before new growth, then again mid-summer if needed. Shaping at the wrong time — just before flowering, for example — removes the blooms you waited all year for. Call (770) 366-3160 for a free estimate.
