About
Some hedges are just something that needs cutting. Others are a defining part of the property.
I'm Haydn, the owner of Sharp Hedges.
I started my business in 2008, working across all aspects of garden maintenance before discovering where my real passion and skill lay. In 2017, I made the decision to specialise in hedge trimming and topiary — and I've never looked back.
Over the years I've worked on everything from everyday residential hedges to large, established gardens where the standard of finish matters. Post-Covid, I spent time working exclusively for one family, caring for their one-acre property as a private gardener. It was an opportunity to work with a garden in extraordinary detail and reinforced something I'd already learned:
The difference between a hedge that's been cut and a hedge that's been properly finished is enormous.
That's what Sharp Hedges is built around.
I care about straight lines, consistent shape, clean definition and the small details that most people won't consciously notice — but absolutely change how a garden feels.
Whether it's maintaining a formal hedge, bringing an overgrown hedge back into shape, or carefully developing established topiary, I approach every job with the same mindset:
Precision, perfection, peace of mind.
I'm also proud to have been recognised along the way:
🏆 Albert-Eden Business Award Winner — 2019
🏆 Top 10 People's Choice — Westpac Auckland Business Awards — 2018
⭐ Builderscrack 5-Star Tradie — ---
🏆 Builderscrack Top Tradie — 2019
Today, Sharp Hedges is a specialist hedge and topiary business serving Auckland homeowners who care about how their property looks and want the job done properly.
If your garden deserves more than a quick trim, I'd love to take a look.
