FAQs

What type of hedge trimmer is best for my garden?

For small to medium gardens, a corded hedge trimmer is lightweight, quiet, and easy to use. For larger hedges or when you need freedom from cables, a cordless hedge trimmer is ideal. Petrol hedge trimmers offer the most power and are perfect for heavy-duty or professional use. Read more on how to choose the right hedge trimmer for you.

How long should the blade be on a hedge trimmer?

Shorter blades (around 40–50 cm) are easier to handle and perfect for shaping small hedges. Longer blades (55–70 cm) cover more area in one pass and are better for taller, wider hedges, saving time on large jobs.

Do I need single or double sided blades?

Single-sided blades are safer and lighter, making them a good choice for beginners and precision trimming. Double-sided blades cut in both directions, allowing faster work and smoother finishes, great for experienced users or professionals. More information on single sided vs double sided here.

How do I maintain my hedge trimmer?

After each use, clean the blades to remove sap and debris, and lightly oil them to prevent rust. Check for loose screws and inspect the power cable or battery regularly. For petrol models, keep the air filter clean and use fresh fuel for best performance. To learn more hedge trimmer maintenance tips click here.

Are hedge trimmers safe to use?

Yes, provided you follow safety precautions. Always wear gloves, eye protection, and sturdy footwear. Keep the cable (for corded models) behind you while trimming, and never use a hedge trimmer in wet conditions to avoid electrical hazards.
