“Ben trimmed back several large bushes, cleaned out and reshaped the landscaping beds, and put down fresh mulch around the house. It was a good-sized job and he knocked it out quickly and efficiently. Pricing was very reasonable for the amount of work involved.”

Frequently Asked Questions
When is the best time to trim hedges and shrubs in Holly Springs?
It depends on the plant. Evergreen hedges like hollies and boxwoods take a shaping in late spring and a light touch-up in late summer. Spring bloomers such as azaleas are trimmed right after they flower, and summer bloomers in late winter. We check what you have before cutting so nothing loses a season of blooms.
Can you bring badly overgrown shrubs back down to size?
Usually, yes. Most hollies, ligustrum, loropetalum and boxwoods take a hard cutback and fill back in over a season or two. A few species do not recover from heavy pruning, and we will tell you when replacement is the better call rather than leave you with a bare stub.
Do you haul away the clippings?
Yes. Every trimming visit includes bagging or loading the clippings, blowing off the beds, walks and drive, and hauling everything away. You come home to shaped plants and clean beds, not a pile at the curb.
How often should foundation shrubs be trimmed?
Most Wake County foundation plantings look their best with two trims a year, one in late spring after the first flush of growth and one in late summer. Fast growers near windows or siding sometimes need a third pass. We can set that up as a recurring visit or do it as needed.
Can you trim hedges as part of a bigger landscaping or patio project?
Yes, and it is a good time to do it. When we build a patio or refresh beds we shape the surrounding shrubs so the finished space looks intentional from day one. Trimming can be added to any landscaping or hardscape proposal.
