Hi, we're the lads up the road
Sandwich Hedges is Richard, his two sons, and a van. Based in Sandwich, working across East Kent since we first picked up a trimmer. Still here. Still trimming.
The bloke you'll meet at the gate
Richard's lived in Sandwich for the best part of his adult life. He started out doing lawns, that's still the day job for most of the year, as Sandwich Lawn Mowing, and the hedge side grew off the back of it. Customers kept asking, so he learned it properly. One thing led to another, and here we are with our own shop.
He's the one quoting your hedge. The one who'll ring you back if you leave a message. The one sweeping your drive at the end of the day. That's on purpose, we're not a call centre.
Two lads who grew up doing this
The family joke is that the boys were holding hedge shears before they could properly hold a pencil. Probably not true, but only just. They've done thousands of hedges between them, and both know the quirks of each species inside out. If Richard can't get to you, one of them will.
They do the tall stuff, the hard work, and most of the laughing. If we're at your house for an afternoon, you'll hear them before you see them.
What we believe, basically
A real person, every time
You get Richard, or one of the lads. No call centre, no chatbot. Text us a photo and we'll text back, usually within a few hours.
Fixed quotes. Always.
We give you a number before we start. That's what you pay. No "ohh it took longer than expected" on the doorstep.
Mess is part of the job
Clearing up isn't an extra. Sheets down, rake, blower, final sweep. Your hedge should look better than the garden around it.
We check for wildlife
Before every cut, in nesting season. Not a marketing line, we genuinely stop if something's active. Always.
Happy or it's free
If we've done the job and you're not pleased with it, don't pay. That's been the rule since day one. Works out fine for everyone.
Proper local
We live and shop in Sandwich. Our kids go to local schools. We're not going anywhere, and our reputation's on the road every day.
Shall we come round?
Text a photo, get a fair quote, have your hedge trimmed by your actual neighbours. That's the whole thing.
