Hedges, Pruning & Planting in Reading
Reading's mix of Victorian streets near the town centre, leafy Caversham across the river, and newer estates out toward Woodley gives us a broad range of gardens to work with. We take on design, landscaping and ongoing maintenance across RG1 to RG6. When it comes to hedges, pruning & planting in Reading, that local knowledge matters: Ground near where the Kennet meets the Thames tends to be heavier and moisture-retentive, while areas further from the rivers sit on the sandier, freer-draining Reading Beds, so we adjust planting choices plot by plot.

Why local matters for hedges, pruning & planting in Reading
Choosing a team that already works across Reading and RG1, RG2, RG4, RG5, RG6 means we understand the gardens here, the mixed Reading Beds clay-sand with river valley alluvial ground ground, the style of the local properties, and what makes hedges, pruning & planting last in this part of Berkshire. We're regularly in Reading and neighbouring Wokingham and Bracknell, so a visit is easy to arrange.
Hedges kept crisp and healthy
We trim formal hedges to clean, even lines and maintain informal ones for health and density, cutting at the right time so you don't disturb nesting birds or weaken the plant. Tall hedges, reductions and reshaping are all part of the work, with the clippings cleared away.
Pruning that improves the plant
Roses, fruit trees, wisteria, shrubs and climbers each have a right time and a right technique. We prune to encourage flowering, fruiting and good structure rather than just reducing size, so plants come back stronger rather than stressed.
