Often, yes. Large conifer hedges can be professionally reduced and reshaped to create a more manageable boundary.
What large conifer hedges can cause
- Blocking natural light
- Becoming difficult to maintain
- Spreading excessively into gardens
- Overhanging neighbouring properties
- Becoming too tall for safe DIY cutting
- Dominating smaller gardens
Why assessment matters
The amount that can safely be removed depends upon the species and condition of the hedge. Many conifer species, including Leylandii, don't regenerate new growth from old, bare wood, so a reduction usually needs to be planned carefully to avoid leaving permanent bare patches.
Herring can assess your conifer hedge and advise what can realistically be achieved. Call 07780 727385.
