Hedges Kept in Shape

From neat garden privet to long roadside boundaries and leylandii that's got out of hand, we trim, shape and reduce hedges of every size. Regular cutting keeps a hedge thick and healthy; one that's been left too long can be brought back with a reduction in height and width.

We work within the Wildlife Act, which restricts hedgerow cutting during the nesting season from 1 March to 31 August, and we'll tell you honestly what can and can't be done at your time of year.

Every cutting is cleared and chipped before we leave, so there's nothing left for you to deal with.

We had multiple large trees removed due to Ash Dieback. Some were very hard to access and the Elm team had all the correct equipment to do the job safely. Very good crew of lads.

I am really pleased with your team, the service provided, and the great communication. Cutting the trees made a huge difference in the landscape around the house. I would like to thank you for the work done yesterday and for the team's professionalism. They have left everything so clean that no one could notice that 4 trees were cut. Definitely, I will be in touch with Elm Landscaping and tree surgery services if I need more work done in the future.

Hedge Cutting & Maintenance FAQs

Common questions about hedge cutting in Limerick. Can’t see yours? Just ask.

The Wildlife Act restricts hedgerow cutting between 1 March and 31 August to protect nesting birds, with limited exemptions such as road safety. Light trimming of garden hedges may still be possible — we’ll advise what’s right for yours.

Yes, using platforms where needed. Leylandii won’t regrow from old brown wood, so we’ll explain how much can come off while keeping the hedge green.
