Hedge Maintenance · Perthshire
Looking for hedge cutting in Perthshire?
A well-kept hedge frames a garden, gives you privacy and shelters planting from Scotland's wind. Left too long, it shades out the border, creeps over the pavement and becomes far harder to bring back into shape. We trim, reduce and reshape hedges of all sizes for homes across Fife, Dundee, Angus and Perthshire — from a short beech boundary to long-established leylandii and privet that have grown well above head height and need bringing back under control safely.
Perthshire is known for its trees, and many gardens here contain genuinely large mature specimens — Douglas fir, Scots pine, beech, lime and cedar — that were planted as part of Victorian estate landscaping. Sheltered valley sites grow fast and dense, while higher ground around Crieff and the Highland edge is colder and wetter, with a shorter growing season that affects turfing timings and lawn establishment.
Tree Preservation Orders are widespread in Perthshire, and Perth, Crieff and Auchterarder all have conservation areas where notification is required before work. We handle those checks with Perth and Kinross Council as part of quoting. Larger estate properties often involve access over grass or gravel, so we plan machinery routes to avoid rutting and leave ground as we found it.
We cover Perth, Blairgowrie, Crieff, Auchterarder, Scone, Coupar Angus, Dunkeld and the villages in between, and you can read more about our wider work on our Perthshire page or the full hedge maintenance guide.
If the job goes further than this, we also handle Landscaping Perthshire.

- Hedge cutting — Routine trimming of sides and tops to keep growth dense, even and within the boundary line, using sharp equipment for a clean finish rather than a torn one.
- Hedge reshaping and reduction — Bringing overgrown hedges back to a manageable height and width, re-establishing straight lines and tapered sides so light reaches the base.
- Regular maintenance visits — Scheduled cuts once or twice a year so the hedge never gets away from you, arranged to suit the species and how formal you want it to look.
- Full waste removal — All clippings raked up, collected and taken away, including from borders, paths and driveways.
Why Perthshire homeowners choose us
Hedge work looks simple until you are halfway along a fifty metre run trying to keep the top level. We are fully insured, work tidily around planting and paving, and take the time to get lines and tapers right so the hedge looks deliberate rather than merely shortened. We also know how hard to cut each species — beech, privet, laurel and conifer all respond very differently.
Typical Perthshire jobs: reductions and dismantling of large estate conifers, restoring overgrown driveways and beech avenues, and full landscaping schemes on rural properties with long approaches.

Reviews from our Facebook page
“Lee and team did a garden clearance for me after moving into a property with a pretty neglected garden, including a pretty hefty ivy growth on the back of the house. They did an absolutely cracking job of clearing all the growth, the ivy, some unexpected branch piles and taking away all the rubbish. Did in a day what would have taken me many days to do myself. Also got some great advice on the next steps of bringing the garden back to life.”
“Had Lee and team lay a patio and path. Work was done in a good manner and to a high standard, everything was left clean and tidy and nothing was too much hassle. Thanks Mr McDonald.”
“I can’t recommend this landscaping business enough! They turned our overgrown garden into exactly what we wanted. Showed up on time every day, worked efficiently, and left everything tidy when they finished. Great value for money and really friendly service – will definitely be using them again.”
