Professional Hedge Trimming:
Privacy and Green Geometry
Hedges are the living walls of your garden. They not only mark your property lines but also act as a barrier against wind, noise, and prying eyes. At Servinmosol, we treat hedge trimming like sculpting: we aim for perfect straight lines and maximum density so your garden looks immaculate and tidy. A well-maintained hedge adds value to the property and acts as natural thermal and acoustic insulation.

Types of Pruning according to Need
Trimming a young hedge is not the same as recovering an old and neglected one. We apply the right technique for each case:
1. Maintenance Pruning and Shaping

This is the regular trimming (2-3 times a year) to maintain the geometric shape. We cut the new shoots to force the plant to branch inwards, achieving that "dense green wall" texture that prevents people from seeing you from the street.
2. Rejuvenation and Reduction Pruning

If your hedges have grown too much in height or width, invading paths or covering windows, we carry out controlled drastic pruning. We lower the height and reduce the width with professional cutting tools, then applying fungicidal treatments to heal the cuts and prevent disease.
Ideal Pruning Calendar in the Mediterranean
Between 2 and 3 cuts a year are recommended to ensure the health of the plant:
- Early Spring: To give the plant strength.
- Early Summer: To control rapid growth.
- Autumn: To prepare for winter.
Species and Care
On the Costa Blanca and Costa Cálida, we regularly work with resistant species that require specific care:
Conifers (Cypress, Thuja)

They require precise cuts to avoid leaving brown "bald spots" that take years to recover.
Flowering Shrubs (Oleander, Hibiscus, Bougainvillea)

We prune at just the right time (after flowering) so as not to sacrifice the next year's blooms.
Performance and Working Times
As a guide, a professional team with gasoline machinery can shape between 15 and 25 linear meters per hour, depending on whether the height exceeds 2 meters and requires scaffolding or poles.

A good pruning job isn't finished until the last leaf is collected.
Professional Tools

We use long-blade gasoline hedge trimmers and telescopic poles to reach the highest canopies without the need for dangerous scaffolding. Our blades are disinfected between clients to prevent spreading pests.
Waste Management

Hedge trimming generates an enormous volume of branches. For example, 10 meters of hedge can generate up to 2 cubic meters of fluffy branches. We shred and remove all plant material on the same day, leaving your paths, pool and walkways completely clean.
View Green Waste ManagementMany people trim hedges perfectly straight, but the professional secret is to leave them slightly wider at the base than at the top (trapezoid shape).
Why? This allows the sun to reach the lower branches, preventing the base of the hedge from becoming "bald" and leafless over the years.
