We have two hedges at the front of the house - one around 15' long, the other around 30' long. They are long established and have holly mixed in with them.

Looking for someone to come around and trim these back for winter but also to strip them back around a pair of gate posts which they have totally covered.

Anyone on NSC who does this for a living out there or can anyone recommend someone for this?

Thanks

Hedge height is not an issue so need someone who can actually do the job rather than just being tall

Probably cheaper to just buy a hedge trimmer

Mrs W is very good at getting rid of bushes - I can see if she can do hedges too if you like ?
