Hedges shaped and kept in line, plus small tree trimming up to 4 metres, cut with quiet, battery-powered gear.
Most hedges in Auckland do best with two or three trims a year, timed around their growth flush rather than a fixed calendar date. Griselinia and photinia both push hard growth from spring, so cutting too early just means trimming again in six weeks. Greenlight's approach is to time each visit to the specific hedge species and how hard it's grown since the last cut, because a hedge trimmed on the wrong week either regrows shaggy within a month or gets cut harder than it needs.
Hedges cut back to a clean, level line, shaped to the hedge's own form rather than forced.
Small trees shaped and trimmed as part of the same visit. Larger or specialist work is referred out.
Fast-growing hedges trimmed after their spring flush; slower species timed to suit their own cycle.
All of our hedge and trimming work runs on commercial-grade battery Stihl gear. No petrol fumes, far less noise than a petrol trimmer, and nothing idling next door while we work, which matters on a quiet street or close to a neighbour's fence line.
Need structural cutting on shrubs and roses rather than a hedge shape? See pruning. For anything beyond a small tree, see tree services.
Tell us the hedge type, length and how overgrown it's got, or book a visit so we can see it.
Cuts are timed to the species and its growth stage, not a fixed date on the calendar.
Clippings swept up and removed on request, edges and paths left clean.
No fixed packages, no time-based pricing. Trimming is a fixed price quoted on the length, height and condition of what needs cutting.
It depends on the species more than the calendar. Fast growers like griselinia are best trimmed after their main spring flush, usually late spring through summer, while slower hedges can go longer between cuts. We'll tell you what your specific hedge needs when we quote it.
Most Auckland hedges hold their shape well on two to three trims a year. Fast-growing species may need an extra visit; slower ones can often get away with one or two.
Yes, up to 4 metres as part of the same visit. Anything larger, or a job that needs a qualified arborist, we refer to a trusted specialist rather than take on ourselves.
