Hedge Trimming on Sumner sections
Coastal hedges take a battering from salt wind, which browns the seaward face. Trimming at the right time of year lets them recover before the next blow.
Between Cave Rock and Scarborough Hill, sections take the full force of easterly sea breezes, and sand blows into lawns and beds after a storm.
Easterly sea breezes salt-burn the seaward face of eastern hedges, so trimming at the right time helps them recover.
We cover all of Sumner 8081, including around Sumner Beach, Sumner Village.
Most coastal sections are standard-sized; exposed or steep cliff-top sections are quoted individually. See the full hedge trimming service for what every visit includes.

Why does my Sumner lawn brown off in summer?
Sandy soil drains fast and salt wind dries the grass out. Cutting higher through summer helps it hold moisture, so we adjust the height with the season.
