Complete hedge removal service for Dawlish homes and businesses. We'll take out the whole hedge, deal with the roots, and clear away all the waste, leaving you with a blank canvas for whatever comes next.
Removing a hedge is bigger than most people think. It's not just cutting it down - there's the root ball to deal with, tons of green waste to shift, and often some proper graft to get stumps out. We've got the gear and the muscle to do it properly.
Why Remove a Hedge?
Could be loads of reasons. Maybe it's overgrown beyond saving, blocking too much light, or you just want to open up the space. Maybe you're putting up a fence instead, or redesigning the whole garden. Whatever the reason, the job's the same - get it all out cleanly and efficiently.
What's Involved
Big hedges mean big work. We'll cut it down in sections, extract the root system (or grind it out if that's better for your plans), and load everything into our van or a hired skip. Devon clay can make root removal a proper workout, but we're used to it.

Frequently Asked Questions about Hedge removal in Dawlish
Can you remove the roots as well as the hedge?
Yes, we can grind out or dig out roots depending on what you're planning next. We'll discuss the best approach when we quote - sometimes leaving some root structure is better for soil stability.
What do you do with all the waste?
We remove everything and dispose of it properly. Large branches get recycled, the rest goes to green waste. You won't be left with piles of cuttings to deal with.
How much notice do you need for hedge removal?
Depends on the size. Small hedges we can fit in within a week or two. Larger jobs that need equipment might be 2-3 weeks. Call us and we'll work something out.
Is there a best time of year to remove a hedge?
Autumn to early spring is ideal - ground's softer and there's no nesting birds to worry about. That said, we can work year-round as long as we check for active nests first.
