Hedge Trimming & Shaping
Overgrown, uneven hedges brought back to a clean, even line — cut by hand and machine, with every clipping raked up and hauled away.
What we do
Hedges, topiary, and the grounds around them.
One local team for the whole exterior — shaped, cleaned, and kept that way. Every quote is a fixed written price after a site visit, and every clipping is hauled away.
Topiary & Feature Hedges
Sculpted shapes, arches, and formal topiary detailed and maintained — so a signature hedge stays sharp instead of slowly losing its form.
Seasonal Grounds Care
Seasonal upkeep that keeps hedges, beds, and the grounds around your fence looking the way they did on the day the work was finished.
Why Ironwood
Built by someone who answers the phone.
Ironwood Grounds is a small, owner-run operation on the Peninsula — not a rotating crew of subcontractors. You deal with the person who quotes your hedges, shapes them, and stands behind the work.
We take a limited number of properties at a time so every hedge gets a careful, even line. Real care, fixed written quotes, and grounds we are glad to put our name on.

How it works
Four steps, one fixed price.
No hourly rate, no surprises. You know the full price before we lift a single blade.
01
Consult & measure
We walk the property, look at every hedge and bed, and talk through the shape and height you want — usually within one business day of your request.
02
Fixed written quote
One clear written price for the work. No hourly rate, no line-item surprises, no pressure to decide on the spot.
03
The shaping
Clean, even lines cut by hand and machine, topiary detailed, beds tidied — and all clippings raked up and hauled away.
04
Walkthrough & upkeep
We walk the finished grounds with you, and set a simple seasonal schedule if you want the lines kept crisp year-round.
Where we work
The Peninsula, and only the Peninsula.
Staying local is how we keep quality high and scheduling tight. Ironwood Grounds shapes hedges across the Peninsula — South Surrey, White Rock, Ocean Park, Morgan Creek, Tsawwassen, Ladner and the wider Delta area.
Questions, answered
The details, before you ask.
How often should hedges be trimmed?
Most Peninsula hedges look their best with a light shaping once or twice a year — typically late spring and again in late summer. Fast-growing cedar and laurel may want a third touch-up. We tell you what yours actually needs rather than sell visits you don't.
When is the best time to trim a cedar hedge?
For cedar and most conifer hedges on the coast, late spring through summer is ideal — once the first flush of growth has hardened. We avoid hard cutting in deep winter or during a heat wave, which stresses the plant.
Do you haul away the clippings?
Yes. Every trim includes cleanup and haul-away — beds raked, clippings removed, and the property left tidier than we found it.
Can you reshape a badly overgrown hedge?
Usually, yes. Many overgrown hedges can be brought back to a clean line over one or two seasons, and some in a single visit. We are honest on-site about what is recoverable and what isn't.
Do you offer one-time trims or ongoing care?
Both. Book a single reshape, or a seasonal schedule that keeps the lines crisp year-round. No lock-in contracts.
How tall a hedge can you shape?
We are equipped for the tall, established hedges common on Peninsula properties. If a hedge is beyond safe reach, we say so rather than risk a poor or unsafe cut.
Which areas do you serve?
We work across the Peninsula communities of Metro Vancouver: South Surrey, White Rock, Ocean Park, Morgan Creek, Tsawwassen, Ladner and the wider Delta area.
Are you insured?
Yes. Ironwood Grounds is WorkSafeBC insured, which covers our crew while they work on your property — worth confirming with any contractor before work begins.
