Giving Your Hedge The Edge
An overgrown hedge doesn’t just look untidy — it can block pathways, restrict sunlight and create a haven for pests.
At Amaze Lawn & Garden Care, we offer professional hedging throughout Port Stephens and the entire Tomaree Peninsula to keep your garden neat, accessible and healthy. From shaping a formal front hedge to maintaining fast-growing boundary plants, we trim with precision to protect your greenery and elevate your property’s appearance. Best of all, we clean up every last leaf, so you’re left with sharp lines and no mess.
We know hedges can get out of hand fast — that’s why we show up on time and get the job done properly. Call 0451 223 557 to book a free quote.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often should hedges be trimmed?
The ideal trimming frequency depends on the type of hedge and how fast it grows. Fast-growing varieties may need attention every 4–6 weeks during spring and summer, while slower species might only need trimming a few times a year. Regular trimming helps maintain shape and density while preventing woody overgrowth. Seasonal timing is also important — some hedges respond better to cuts during certain times of the year. A tailored schedule helps keep them looking good and growing evenly.
Will trimming hedges help them grow thicker?
Yes — consistent, proper trimming encourages fuller, bushier growth. When a hedge is trimmed, it stimulates new shoots along the cut areas, helping fill in thin or patchy sections. This is especially useful for creating privacy screens or formal shapes. However, aggressive cutting or poor timing can have the opposite effect, stressing the plant. Regular, moderate trimming is key to a healthy and attractive hedge.
Can tall or hard-to-reach hedges be trimmed safely?
Yes — with the right tools and experience, even tall or awkwardly placed hedges can be trimmed effectively. Safety is a top priority when working near fences, rooftops or on uneven terrain. Proper equipment, such as extension trimmers or adjustable ladders, helps achieve a clean result without risking damage to the hedge or surrounding property. It’s often safer and more efficient to have a professional handle large or high hedges. Our professionals can reach up to 5 meters
Neat Hedges For Tidier Gardens
Hedge trimming isn’t just about aesthetics — it’s about maintaining plant structure, airflow and sunlight access. Regular trimming helps prevent woody overgrowth, keeps pests in check and encourages denser, more consistent foliage.
Whether you have small box hedges or larger screening varieties, we tailor our tools and techniques to suit. Our service is ideal for homeowners, rental properties and NDIS clients who want tidy hedges without the hassle. We also make sure the cut suits the season, so your plants recover well and keep growing strong.
Every hedge we trim gets the attention to detail it deserves — no quick jobs or rough finishes.
Safe & Professional Trimming
Working with hedges isn’t always a DIY job — especially when they’re tall, spiky or growing too close to structures.
We use safe equipment and careful methods to trim hedges without damaging surrounding areas, and without putting anyone at risk. If access is tight or visibility is an issue, we’ll assess the layout and work efficiently to get the result you’re after. And because we’re fully insured and locally based, you can rely on us to deliver a professional finish with every visit.
