What we walked into
It hadn't been touched in a good while: straggly, out of shape and so wide it had swallowed the path. He didn't have the time or the machines to pull it back himself.
He sent a couple of photos, left the gate open and we went and had a look. Three foot came off the top, the sides were rolled back in so it doesn't look straggly, the path was cleared and the lawn was cut.

Step by step
Quote from photos
Priced from a couple of photos, then checked on site.
Top down
About three foot off the top.
Roll the sides
Sides cut back in at a slight angle so the hedge stays thick at the bottom.
Path and lawn
Path cleared, lawn cut and all the waste taken away.
Why the sides go in at an angle
A hedge that's slightly narrower at the top than the bottom lets light reach the lower branches, so it stays thick at the base instead of going bare and leggy.
Sending a couple of photos is the quickest way to get a price. Most jobs like this are quoted the same day.
