Initial Assessment
We examine each shrub's health, species characteristics, current shape, and your aesthetic goals to create a trimming plan.
Remove Problem Growth
Dead, damaged, or crossing branches are removed first to improve air circulation and prevent rubbing damage.
Shape and Reduce
We carefully shape the shrub, making cuts at appropriate angles to encourage healthy regrowth in desired directions.
Final Review
A final check ensures balanced appearance, proper clearance from structures, and no missed problem areas.
Complete Cleanup
All cuttings are collected and removed, leaving your garden tidy and ready to enjoy.
