OTTAWA HEDGE TRIMMING AND TREE SERVICES
Hedge King plants fully cultivated cedar hedges across Ottawa: farm-grown cedars about three years ahead of standard field-grown stock. We fertilize at planting and offer warranty and maintenance plans. Your part is consistent watering, especially through the first year.
We use only the highest quality fully cultivated eastern white cedar hedges. These are not the typical spindly field cedars that you find at most garden centers. Fully cultivated cedars are grown on a dedicated cedar farm where they are fertilized and strategically pruned yearly to promote the thickest growth. This ensures you get the best possible results on the day of your planting and for many years to come. (Expect fully cultivated cedars to put you 3 years of growth ahead of the growth on a field cedar) We will fertilize your new hedges as we plant them to give them all that they need for the first year in their new home.
All that is left for you to do is water! Please inquire about our warranty and maintenance plans.

Ottawa Hedge Trimming & Tree Services
Fully cultivated cedars are grown on dedicated farms where they are fertilized and pruned yearly to promote thick, even growth. This process puts them about three years ahead in development compared to field-grown cedars, ensuring a fuller and healthier hedge.
Yes! Unlike deciduous trees that lose their leaves in the fall, eastern white cedar hedges remain green all year, offering continuous privacy and protection from wind and noise.
No, most municipalities have by-laws restricting fence heights, but these do not apply to hedges. This makes cedar hedges a great alternative for backyard privacy.
Absolutely! Cedar hedges are a natural way to conceal hydro boxes, phone and cable junctions, pool equipment, sheds, and other structures while enhancing the look of your yard.
The most important step is regular watering, especially in the first year. We also offer fertilization during planting and have maintenance plans available to keep your hedge healthy and thriving.
Cedar hedges should be trimmed professionally once a year around the same time. This promotes healthy growth and keeps the hedge looking full and rich in colour.
Yes Hedge King is fully insured. We have a claim free history and a copy of Hedge King's insurance is available for review at anytime.
It is important to get you hedge trimmed when there is no frost or a risk of frost. Typically anytime between late April and late October is a safe time.
We will collect all of the hedge trimmings and remove them from your property. We will then ensure that they are processed to recover their cedar oil before mulching and composting the remaining material.
Highly recommend. Moved into a new house with cedar hedges that looked like they haven't been trimmed in years. One side was being completely strangled by vines. Hedge king gave us a very well laid out and detailed quote. They showed up on time, and exceeded all expectations. The hedges look incredible. Very kind, professional, and hardworking crew. What we thought would be an impossible job, to amazing looking hedges! Thank you!
This our first opportunity to use Hedge King and we are thrilled. The hedge looks amazing! The staff were methodical, thorough and diligent. The hedge has not looked this good in years. thanks to Liam and the crew for a great job.
Barry and Jeff did a fantastic job of trimming our hedges. Our hedges have never looked so good!
I was very happy with the excellent job the team did on trimming my large cedar hedge and removing some straggly branches at the top of a tall juniper. They turned up on time, answered any questions that I had, and cleaned up everything efficiently. It was a pleasure dealing with everyone on the crew and in the office. See you next year!
Very professional and responsive
They did exactly as requested and did a great cleanup. Would use them again.
Hedge King trimmed my over-grown two storey hedge very nicely. It looks much better now. They arrived on time and everything went without a hitch!
This is the third time we have had Hedge King trim our hedge and we have used them for removal of trees. As always they did an excellent job, the crew was friendly, courteous and hard working! We were informed of when they were coming and also the change in schedule due to the snow. Cleanup was excellent and the hedge looks really great again! We are very pleased and highly recommend Hedge King.
Thank you! Your hedge trimming is bringing our hedge back to where it needs to be after too much time with not enough care. Professional, great communication from the office, shows up on time or earlier, leaves the area clean. I recommend Hedge King!
