Hedge Trimming in Brookline MA

Coolidge Corner, Washington Square and Longwood are small back yards boxed in by pavement and shade. Chestnut Hill and the south end sit on bigger lots with real canopy and more room to plant, room for hedges, beds and full lawns.

Brookline's tree canopy covers close to half the town, and mature trees drink most of the water and block the light thin grass needs. Hedges on these lots do real work, so we shape them on a schedule instead of waiting for overgrowth.

We cover Coolidge Corner, Chestnut Hill, Brookline Village, Washington Square and Longwood. See the full Brookline landscaping page for more on the town.

When to Schedule Hedge Trimming in Brookline

Timing depends on the plant. Shrubs that bloom in spring, like lilac and forsythia, form next year's buds over the summer, so trim them right after the flowers fade. Shrubs that bloom later in summer are usually cut back in late winter or early spring. Evergreen hedges like yew and boxwood can take a light shaping after their first flush of growth. Heavy cuts late in fall are the ones to avoid, because new growth will not harden off before the cold.

What Affects Hedge Trimming Cost in Brookline

• Number and size, how many hedges and shrubs there are, and how tall they have grown.
• Overgrowth, a maintenance trim versus bringing back a plant left alone for years.
• Reach, ladder work, tight spots against the house and beds that are hard to get into.
• Cleanup, how much cut material has to be raked up and hauled away.
