KIWI Hedge Cutting Westergate

Hedges are more than just decorative elements in a garden or landscape. They also help nature and wildlife thrive. Hedges are rows of shrubs or trees that form a boundary or a barrier. They have many benefits such as providing shelter and food for birds and insects, conserving and retaining water in the ground, storing carbon and reducing greenhouse gases, and enhancing beauty and diversity. However, hedges require regular trimming or pruning to maintain their health and function.

Cutting Hedges in Westergate with KIWI Tree & Hedge Services

Hedge cutting is not only a matter of aesthetics but also of ecology and legality. Hedges are important habitats for wildlife and help reduce the impact of climate change. However, they can also cause problems if they are too high or wide and block light or views for neighbours or road users. Therefore, it is advisable to follow some guidelines when trimming hedges:

  • The best time to trim hedges is between late winter and early spring, before the birds start nesting. Avoid cutting hedges during the bird breeding season (March to August) as this may disturb or harm the birds and their eggs.
  • The ideal height and width of a hedge depends on the type of plants and the purpose of the hedge. However, as a general rule, hedges should not exceed 2 metres in height or encroach on public footpaths or roads.
  • If a hedge is shared with a neighbour, it is important to communicate and agree on how to maintain it. If there is a dispute over a hedge, it may be resolved through mediation or legal action under the Anti-social Behaviour Act 2003.

Hedge cutting is a common and beneficial practice that can improve the appearance and health of hedges and gardens. In Westergate, Kiwi Tree & Hedge Services is one of the best options for hiring professional hedge cutters who can provide quality service at reasonable prices. However, hedge cutting should also be done with respect for nature and neighbours.
