Benefits of Buying a Hedge Trimmer

Trim hedges easily and efficiently

Using a hedge trimmer to tidy up your shrubs and hedges is a quicker and easier way to get your garden looking neat compared to manual cutting, giving you more time for other tasks and using less effort in the process!

Tidy your garden spaces

We love seeing our gardens in full bloom, and using a hedge trimmer means you can keep your hedges looking full but in control. There’s great choice of hedge cutters in various sizes, from small trimmers for quick shape-ups to long hedge cutters to get to those tall branches! When you’re done, simply pop your cuttings in a wheelbarrow, garden bag, or garden trolley for easy disposal.

Improves the light to your garden

A hedge or shrub is a nice way of providing shade to your garden, but if they start to get overgrown, your garden could end up feeling a little overwhelmed! Help your sun-loving plants by keeping your hedges in check with a hedge cutter, putting you in control of the light in your garden.

Make mulch and create compost

Once your hedge trimmers have made light work of excess leaves and foliage, you can put those cuttings to good use in your garden! Leafy foliage is perfect for adding to your compost bin, whilst woodier offcuts can be used as a mulch around the base of plants for insulation and nutrients. Use a garden shredder to help your foliage break down.

FAQs

How do I maintain a hedge trimmer?

Keep your hedge cutter in good condition by cleaning any debris from the blades after use, and keep it stored undercover in a garden building when you’re not using it. For cordless options, keep the battery charged between uses to save time, and check the blades every now and again – after time, these could blunt which reduces the efficiency of your hedge trimmer, so check out our garden power tool accessories if you need a replacement.

Can I use a hedge cutter for other types of vegetation?

A hedge trimmer is ideal for leafy hedges and shrubs in your garden, but can also be used on grass and ivy. You should always check the instructions first, and avoid tackling anything with thick branches – we have chainsaws for that!

How do I choose the right blade length for my hedge trimmer?

You should grab a hedge trimmer that works well for the size of the hedge you have. Small hedges and shrubs can be maintained with a small cordless hedge trimmer, whilst large and tall hedges will need a long blade to reach the top. Some hedge cutters are even angled to help you get to those difficult spots which are out of reach. Check out our petrol hedge trimmers if you need extra power for difficult hedges.

Can I use a hedge trimmer on wet hedges?

Just like using a lawn mower on wet grass, it isn’t advised to use a hedge trimmer on wet hedges as it could clog up your tool. Also, using a hedge cutter in damp conditions increases your chances of slipping, so wait until a dry day and always use safety clothing such as goggles and gloves when working with your hedge trimmer.
