Hedge trimming and conifer reduction in Bolton
A tidy hedge transforms a garden — but a leylandii that’s been left a few years can quickly reach two or three storeys, blocking light and becoming impossible to manage from a stepladder. Treelation specialise in bringing overgrown hedges and conifers back under control, leaving a neat, dense finish that still gives you privacy.
What we do
- Regular hedge trimming for all hedge types — privet, beech, laurel, hawthorn and conifers
- Height reduction of tall leylandii and conifer hedges
- Cutting back overgrown sides to reclaim garden space
- Reshaping and restoring neglected hedges
- Complete hedge removal, including grinding out the roots
- All cuttings cleared away and recycled
Getting the height right
We spend time with you to agree exactly how low to go, so the finished hedge still screens the garden and looks good from both sides. As one customer put it, Simon “cut the hedge exactly to where I wanted it… and left the job spotless.”
Wildlife note: it is an offence to damage an active bird’s nest. Between March and August we check hedges carefully before cutting and will wait if birds are nesting.
Problem high hedge next door?
If a neighbour’s evergreen hedge over two metres tall is blocking light to your home or garden, you may be able to ask the council to step in under the high hedges rules (Part 8 of the Anti-social Behaviour Act 2003). It’s always best to talk first — we’re happy to quote for the work if your neighbour agrees.
