What Our Shrub Trimming Services Cover

Shrub trimming services from Monster Tree Service help your bushes to grow healthy and retain their natural shape while promoting new growth, more flowers, and a stronger plant. However, each shrub has its own ideal trimming season and preferred pruning method.


Our arborists have the knowledge and experience to trim:

  • Evergreen shrubs
  • Deciduous/leafy shrubs
  • Flowering bushes
  • Over-dense branches
  • Damaged or diseased plants
  • And more!

We have expert knowledge on everything from when to trim evergreen bushes (late spring, by the way) to how much pruning is healthy for each bush and if a plant should be pruned or sheared.


Before beginning any trim, we’ll inspect your shrubs to determine the best timing and schedule to maximize the health and appearance of every plant. Then, we work with you to fit shrub care and plant health care into your seasonal home maintenance routine without lifting a finger.

Promote Flourishing Shrubs & Bushes with Consistent Care

Professional pruning does more than just shape bushes or cut back overgrowth. Like trees, shrubs benefit from deadwooding – the removal of dead or diseased portions of the plant. When carefully timed with the growing season, pruning shrubs also encourages more robust growth.


Shrub pruning and trimming services help maintain your plant health and landscaping curb appeal from season to season. Without regular pruning, shrubs become untamed and overbearing, which not only looks unsightly but robs interior branches of vital sunlight and nutrients. This can cause early decay or the thinning out of your shrubs, harming your landscaping over time.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How do you know when to trim shrubs?

    A Monster Tree Service professional arborist can help identify when the proper pruning time should be based on the species. Your arborist will work with you to create a schedule that matches the best time to trim the shrubs in your yard.

  • How often should shrubs be trimmed?

    Every shrub is unique, and our expert team can help create a pruning plan best for your yard. Typically, shrubs need one major pruning a year and trimming every few months to maintain their size and shape.

  • Can you kill a bush by trimming it?

    Unfortunately, yes. Pruning that is too aggressive or poorly timed can kill your bushes. Over-pruned plants or plants pruned at the wrong time are also more susceptible to disease and pests, which can cause shrubs to die back. That’s why it’s best to enjoy worry-free shrub care service from experienced professionals.
