For homeowners who value the long-term beauty, structure, and health of their landscape, we provide horticulturally precise pruning guided by plant science and years of skilled, practiced experience. We combine a deep understanding of plant biology with careful, intentional technique to restore structure, encourage resilient growth, and bring out the natural character of every shrub, hedge, and ornamental tree. Whether rejuvenating mature lilacs, refining formal boxwood hedges, selectively thinning ornamental maples, or thoughtfully shaping foundation plantings and mixed shrub borders, we approach each plant as an individual — never a shape to force or rush through on a production schedule. Every cut is measured, purposeful, and seasonally timed, supporting both immediate appearance and long-term vitality. The result is a landscape that feels balanced, composed, and quietly refined, maintaining its beauty and integrity throughout the year.

Ongoing & Seasonal Garden Care
At Expert Pruning, we understand that every landscape is different in age, in plant mix, and in the level of attention it needs. That's why we offer flexible residential landscape maintenance plans for Seacoast NH homeowners in Portsmouth, Hampton, Rye, Exeter, and nearby communities. Whether you need year-round shrub and hedge care or a seasonal boost to restore order and beauty, our pruning specialists deliver consistent, professional landscaping services you can count on season after season.
Many of our clients come to us after years of working with general landscaping contractors and finding that their shrubs, hedges, and ornamental trees weren't receiving the specialized attention they need to truly thrive. We fill that gap with trained horticultural expertise and a genuine understanding of how plants grow, respond, and recover.
We specialize in the careful, plant-appropriate pruning of shrubs, hedges, and ornamental trees, providing professional residential landscape maintenance that includes both one-time corrective work and ongoing seasonal care. Our approach is grounded in plant biology and refined through years of horticultural experience, allowing us to improve structure, encourage resilient growth, and preserve the natural character of each planting. From rejuvenating overgrown lilacs and refining formal boxwood hedges to selectively thinning ornamental maples and shaping foundation plantings, our work supports long-term plant health while enhancing the overall composition of your landscape. Unlike general landscapers who focus primarily on routine landscaping tasks, our expertise centers specifically on structural pruning and precision hedge trimming that protects both appearance and plant vitality. The result is landscape care that is measured, informed, and designed to make a lasting difference season after season.
Ongoing Shrub & Tree Care
Sometimes your landscape just needs a well-timed, expert hand. Our One-Time Seasonal Pruning Service is a smart option for homeowners who already have a general landscaping service in place but want specialized pruning care for their most important shrubs, hedges, and ornamental trees. It's also ideal for spring and fall landscape cleanups, corrective pruning for overgrown plants, or shaping formal hedges and specimen trees before a special event or property showing.
With professional tools, proper technique, and years of experience in Seacoast NH residential landscape care, our team ensures every plant receives the right attention at exactly the right time of year — and leaves your property looking composed, healthy, and cared for.
One-time Seasonal Pruning Service
New England storms can leave even a well-maintained landscape in rough shape overnight. Broken branches, split crotches, and torn limbs create entry points for disease, invite pest damage, and put real stress on long-term plant structure — and some situations simply need to be dealt with quickly and safely.
Our team handles large branch removal, structural storm damage assessment, and corrective pruning for damaged shrubs, hedges, and ornamental trees throughout Seacoast NH and Southern Maine. As trained horticulturists, we assess each plant honestly: removing what's lost, making clean cuts that support recovery, and telling you clearly what can be saved and what can't.
