KENYA · GUIDE 0751 · EDITION 4.2
Hedge trimming service in Kenya
Trim hedges to an approved line while protecting access, people and nearby plants.
A CONCRETE EXAMPLE · ILLUSTRATIVE
Fictional job: trim 20 m of an identified established hedge from ground level to the owner-approved existing profile, with clippings collected from the agreed work area. Keep the example within safe reach of the competent operator's actual tool; tall work, ladders, overhead services, tree surgery, severe rejuvenation and pesticide treatment are excluded. Confirm species and suitable timing locally, including wildlife/nesting concerns. Do not promise a bare old-wood section will regrow without species evidence.
