Garden & Grounds Landscaping & Maintenance in Harrogate:
Professional Tree & Hedge Care
Hedges require regular maintenance and at Hedge-Hogs we offer periodical hedge cutting services for domestic and commercial customers.
We recommend hedge pruning at least once a year, maybe twice, depending on the type of hedge, but never in the bird nesting season.
Hard & Soft Landscaping
Hard landscaping and soft landscaping are both elements in landscape gardening. Hard landscaping includes the heavier elements in landscape design, such as turfing, walls, rocks, paths and patios, driveways etc. Soft landscaping includes things like soil, plants, flower and color schemes.
