When to book
When to cut a hedge in Ireland
Hedges grow hardest from late spring to the end of summer. Most garden hedges look their best with a trim in early summer and another in late summer or early autumn.
Heavy cutting back is best done between September and the end of February, when growth has slowed and the hedge has time to green up again before spring.
Conifer hedges such as leylandii need trimming regularly, because they will not grow back from old brown wood if they are cut back too hard.

Hedge cutting, done properly
We trim the hedge so it looks right from the house and from the road, with the same attention to detail on a short front hedge as on a long boundary.
Tell us how long the hedge is and roughly how high, and we give you a free quotation.
If the trees behind the hedge or the lawn in front need doing too, ask for them in the same quote.

Reviews
What customers say
Brilliant job cutting back our hedges and tidying up the garden. They were getting way too high for us to manage ourselves. Everything was left spotless afterwards, couldn't recommend them enough.
Had the driveway power washed last week. Looks like new again! Really pleased with it.
Our back garden was an absolute mess after being neglected for over a year. We contacted Oakstone about clearing it out and they were fantastic from start to finish.
They got rid of all the overgrowth, weeds and garden waste. Honestly didn't think the garden could look this good again. Delighted with the result!
Very happy with the tree pruning work. Arrived when they said they would, got straight to it and cleaned up after themselves. Sound lads too.
Been getting our grass cut and garden maintained regularly and it's made such a difference. Always reliable, always do a proper job. We recently had them trim a couple of trees as well and that turned out great. Nice to find someone who takes pride in their work.
Hedge cutting: questions people ask
How do I get a price for my hedge?
Send the form with roughly how long and how high the hedge is, or ring us. The quotation is free.
Do you cut hedges for businesses?
Yes. We cut hedges for homes and for businesses.
Can you cut a hedge that has been let go?
Yes. Overgrown hedges are part of the job. We look at it and tell you what can be done.
Do you do the lawn as well?
Yes. Lawn mowing and garden tidy-ups are part of what Oakstone does.
How often does a hedge need cutting?
Most garden hedges need a trim once or twice a season. Fast growers such as leylandii and privet do better with two or three.
Can a big overgrown leylandii be cut right back?
Only so far. Leylandii will not regrow from bare brown wood, so an overgrown one is brought back in stages, keeping some green on it.
