If your hedges are blocking light, spilling onto paths, or losing their shape, we can bring them back under control. Our team works across BR3, including Eden Park and around Beckenham Junction station. We trim for a clean outline while encouraging dense, healthy regrowth. Every visit includes careful clearing so your garden looks better the same day.
Beckenham’s Edwardian houses, 1930s semis and period conversions often have established boundary hedges that need regular attention. Front gardens can be compact, while rear plots are frequently longer with mature screening. We’re used to working around shared side access, narrow gates and delicate planting beds. The result is a finish that complements the property rather than overpowering it.
We start with a quick assessment of species, height, thickness and any weak sections, then agree the target shape and reduction level. Cuts are made with sharp, well-maintained equipment to minimise tearing and browning, especially on conifers. We protect lawns and borders, remove green waste, and leave paths swept. Local homeowners choose us for consistent standards, clear communication and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty.
We know the hedge trimming Beckenham area well, including access and parking realities near Clock House and Elmers End. Many streets have limited on-drive space, so we plan loading, waste removal and working zones to avoid disruption. We also account for established gardens near parks such as Kelsey Park, where mature hedges can be dense and tall. Our approach suits hedge trimming in London Borough of Bromley properties, from compact front boundaries to long rear screens.

Pricing is usually based on length, height, thickness and how much reduction is needed. As a guide, hedge trimming typically falls around £5–£15 per metre, with most Beckenham jobs landing in the £80–£300 range. Formal shaping, tall conifers, heavy reductions and difficult access can increase costs, while light maintenance trims on accessible hedges are often at the lower end.
Most hedge trimming visits take around 2–6 hours, depending on the hedge length, height and density. A quick maintenance trim on a manageable boundary can be completed faster, while reductions, shaping multiple sections, or working around tight access will take longer. Weather, waste volume and whether you want a full tidy-up of borders and paths can also affect the overall timescale.
In most cases, routine hedge trimming and shaping in a private garden is permitted and doesn’t need formal permission. However, restrictions can apply if a hedge is in a conservation area, if there are Tree Preservation Orders affecting nearby trees, or if nesting birds are present. We’ll flag likely issues during the site visit and can help you understand any London Borough of Bromley guidance before work starts.
Yes. Our work is supported by a 10-year warranty covering workmanship standards, meaning we stand by the quality of the cut, the agreed shape and the care taken to protect surrounding areas. It doesn’t cover natural factors such as drought, disease, storm damage or growth changes outside our control, but we’ll always advise on aftercare to reduce risk and keep your hedge looking its best.
We work with formal hedges (crisp, straight lines), informal hedges (softer, natural shapes), hedge reduction to lower height or width, and precise hedge shaping for features or entrances. Conifer hedges are also a common request, where careful cutting helps avoid bare patches. We’ll recommend a suitable profile, trimming frequency and timing based on species, sunlight and how much privacy you want.
