Overgrown hedges and unruly trees are one of the most common things that let a property down. What should be a tidy boundary or an attractive garden feature becomes a scrappy eyesore. Peak to Peak has been bringing hedges and trees back into shape across the Wakatipu basin for over 20 years.
A well-maintained hedge is one of the best things you can do for a property’s appearance, clean lines, a defined boundary, and a sense of structure that makes everything else look more cared for. Let it go too long and it becomes a much bigger job to bring back.
We trim hedges of all sizes and species to a consistent, manageable height and width using specialist hedge trimming equipment. Whether it’s a low garden border, a tall privacy screen, or an overgrown shelter belt that’s got completely out of hand, we’ll get it back under control and keep it there.
Trees are a great asset to a Queenstown property, until they start blocking a view, dropping branches over the house, or growing into power lines and fences. A good prune at the right time of year keeps your trees healthy, safe, and looking their best without taking away what makes them special.
We handle everything from light shaping and deadwood removal through to more significant pruning work on larger trees. If a tree has genuinely got away from you, we’ll give you an honest assessment of what’s needed and what’s realistic to achieve.
Hedge trimming and tree pruning looks straightforward until you’re up a ladder with a chainsaw and the hedge is still uneven on one side. Beyond the practical risks, poorly timed or poorly executed pruning can actually damage plants, cutting at the wrong point in the season, removing too much at once, or leaving wounds that invite disease.
We have the equipment, the experience, and the eye for a straight line. The job gets done faster, more safely, and with a better result than most people manage themselves.
We do plenty of one-off hedge and tree jobs for homeowners who just need things tidied up. We also include hedge trimming and tree pruning as part of our regular maintenance programmes for clients who want everything handled on a schedule throughout the year. Either way works for us.
Get in touch and we’ll come out to take a look. For most hedge and tree jobs we can give you a quote on the spot.
Trees are great until they block your view or endanger the house. If they have gone a bit wild we can prune them back into shape in no time. They should add appeal to your property, not distract from it
