What to know about Shrub & hedge trimming
Shrub and hedge trimming keeps privacy hedges, foundation plantings and ornamental shrubs dense, healthy and in proportion to the house. Landscapers shear formal hedges to a clean line, thin and shape flowering shrubs, cut back growth crowding walkways, windows and air conditioners, and haul the clippings away. In much of Quebec and Ontario the job revolves around cedar hedges, which line countless lots and can take years to recover from a bad cut.

Vancouver is the principal city of a wider area we list under the name Metro Vancouver, which takes in 14 other places. A pro's service area might be Vancouver on its own or the whole of it — we match on the one they gave us.
Vancouver publishes its own building-permit page, and it is linked below beside the rules that apply in British Columbia. Whether hedge trimming needs a permit is answered there, not in a quote.
Our British Columbia guide has no rule written for this trade, so there is none below. That is not the same as nothing applying: ask for proof of insurance, and for anything that touches gas, wiring or drains, ask who is certified to do it.
Hedge trimming costs in Vancouver
Prices depend on the details of your project. We only publish price ranges when they’re backed by real LokalMatch quote data or reliable sources. Until then, here’s what usually changes the price:
- Size of the yard and the scope of the design
- Grading, excavation and drainage work
- Hardscape materials, such as stone, pavers or wood
- Plants, sod and soil
- Access for machinery
- Removal of old materials, trees or stumps
- How often visits are scheduled for ongoing services
How to choose landscapers in Vancouver
- Choose a company that does the kind of work you need, since design, lawn care, tree work and hardscaping are different specialties.
- For big projects, ask for a site plan or drawing before work starts.
- Ask how they'll handle grading and drainage so water moves away from the house.
- For tree removal or large pruning, look for a qualified arborist with liability insurance.
- For ongoing services like lawn care or snow removal, get the visit schedule and what's included in writing.
Questions to ask landscapers before you hire
- Can I see a plan or drawing before you start?
- How will you handle drainage and grading?
- Will you have underground utilities located before you dig?
- Does any of this work need a permit, such as for a retaining wall, fence or tree removal?
- What plants or materials do you recommend for our climate and my yard's sun and shade?
- Do you guarantee plants or sod, and for what conditions?
- Can you show me proof of liability insurance?
Hedge trimming permits in Vancouver
Some hedge trimming work needs a permit or has to meet local bylaws. Rules vary by municipality, so ask your pro whether a permit is needed and who will apply for it — and check with your city or town if you’re unsure.

Common hedge trimming questions
Is LokalMatch free for homeowners?
Yes. You never pay LokalMatch to request quotes or talk to pros. Professionals pay a fee to connect with homeowners whose projects fit their business.
How many pros will contact me?
We introduce you to a small number of relevant pros — usually no more than three — so you’re not flooded with calls. If fewer pros are available in your area, we’ll tell you instead of promising quotes we can’t deliver.
Do I have to hire someone?
No. Requesting quotes doesn’t commit you to anything. Compare your options and hire only if someone is the right fit.
