Hedge Creation

Hedge Creation Leicestershire-

Rows of large conifers can get out of hand!  However, our tree surgeons will soon get them back into shape.

When managing conifers for hedges its very important to get them in shape early.  Most coniferous speices (except Yew) will not reshoot following defoliation and only have foliage at the ends of their branches as a result reducing the width of a hedge can be problematic.  Height is less of a problem as foliage is left around the side, whcih then grows upwards.  

Deciduous hedges (lose leaves) are often able to be pruned heavily in order to bring back into size as they will reshoot.  Care must be taken when heavily pruning the hedge not to cause too much stress to the plants and allow disease to gain a stronghold.  Timing of works is also very important as too much sunlight or pruning too late in the year will lead to stem damage or frost damage!

Certain broadleaved evergreens such as Laurels offer an amazing ability to reshoot and can even be layered to create more plants.  They are quick growing hedges and reasonably priced.  Their only problem is that they have large leaves which do not shear well!  

So whatever the hedge our tree surgery team will be able to offer the best options to regain control or manage it long term.

Feedbacks

“We’re very pleased with the work done over 22nd and 23rd October.

The trees have been trimmed neatly and the team checked with us as work was underway to ensure all was carried out as requested.

The property was left tidy as the clearing up was good.

The next day Boz came to grind the conifer stumps down.  He did a great job too and as the big conifers had been so near to the wall took good care to grind them to 18” below without damaging the wall.  The other smaller conifers were ground down including the one that had been left about 10” high or so, as there could have been damage to a chain saw had one of the team tried to go lower on it the previous day.

Thanks once again for an effective job.

Best wishes”

“Great price

This is the 2nd time we’ve used Beddow Tree Limited to cut back out trees, as before the whole process from coming out to look at trees and quote to the guys doing the works was friendly and professional,. They were knowledgeable and knew what they were doing and all debris was taken away and area left tidy. Very happy customers”.

Beddowes removed two trees from our garden and carefully pruned three others in less than a day. They were efficient, very tidy and extremely well priced. We would definitely recommend them.
