This is my 7th summer with TR and I love my job. Big weeding jobs are my favorite so bring it on! I ask jobs to take a minimum of 3 hours. I have most hand tools I need. I don’t install astroturf or posts. I do not have a mower but will mow if you do!

Frequently asked questions about Hedge Trimming in Portland

Hedge trimming prices start at $30 per hour in Portland.

The best month to trim shrubs depends on the shrub type. Blooming shrubs are best trimmed in the winter. Non-flowering shrubs can be trimmed anytime except late autumn. Overgrown hedges should be trimmed six weeks prior to the first frost.

The most important aspect to keep in mind with bush trimming is to avoid over-pruning so as to not stress the plant. A rule of thumb is to never remove more than one-third of the bush's growth.

Avoid trimming hedges during extreme heat or drought as this can stress the plant. Additionally, avoid cutting hedges in late fall, as this can stimulate new growth that can be damaged by winter cold.

  • Cara T.Jacob did a fantastic job clearing a very large, tiered garden bed and cutting down arborvitae—all in just two hours! He worked incredibly quickly and was thorough throughout. I highly recommend him for garden cleanup and would happily hire him again.Hedge Trimming
  • Angela V.Chad is an awesome tasker. Friendly, efficient, fully dedicated to my vision. Worked well with me and totally focused and efficient and reliable on his own. He had to dig through packed clay to level new planter beds, build the beds and fill them. He made quick work of this job and the results are fabulous! I'll definitely use him again.Hedge Trimming
  • Janice P.Im starting the review by saying William was very friendly and a very hard worker who worked for over 5 hours for me. However, I am giving him a 3 star review mainly because he was over an hour late for the job, and didnt reach out proactively. It wasnt until I reached out to him after being 30 min late and asking where he was that found out he was going to be late. Additionally, he was very detail oriented with the tasks, and it seemed to take more time than it probably should have for the scope of work. He mentioned that he was very detail oriented at the beginning of the job and I shared that he didnt need to be that way with this work. For example, I wanted him to spread some wood chips in different areas. He did that, and made things so they were level, compacted, and had very clean edges. It looked great, but he didnt need to spend so much time doing that level of detail. I would encourage people that hire him be very clear about the level of detail wanted so there are no miscommunication.Hedge Trimming
  • Pat F.Robert is fantastic. We could not have gotten the work done we did without his help. Knows what he’s doing for sure! Totally recommend him!!!Hedge Trimming
  • Nicole D.Douglas did an amazing job pruning back a large wisteria that was taking over my garage. He also did a general yard cleanup and hauled away all the debris. Highly recommend!Hedge Trimming
  • Camila S.Shadi did a great job weeding/mulching and clearing a section of our backyard. I appreciated his communication and he was easy to work with. Hedge Trimming

Expert hedge, bush, and shrub trimming services in Portland

What is shrub trimming?

Shrub trimming is an essential piece of maintaining a well-groomed yard. When trimming shrubs, Taskers will lay down a tarp for easy cleanup, and will utilize a stake and string as a guide for trimming height. They'll make sure there's at least a six inch gap between the shrub and your home to prevent any scratching, while trimming the top of the shrub narrower than the base for balanced growth.

Why is trimming necessary?

Trimming bushes, shrubs, and hedges maintains the health of the plant and the appearance of your yard. Keeping up with this task encourages flowering and fruiting while reducing hazards from overgrown branches.
