Trimming & Edging in Guelph

The detail work that makes a lawn look professional — included with every cut we do, not sold as an extra.

Here’s an industry secret: the mowing isn’t what makes a lawn look professionally maintained. It’s the edges. A lawn with clean vertical edges along the driveway, tight trim lines around every fence post and tree, and no stray blades against the house reads as "cared for" from across the street.

That’s why trimming and edging aren’t add-ons at A Cut Above — they’re included in every single mowing visit, along with a full blowdown of your hard surfaces. One of our earliest five-star reviews literally reads "phenomenal edging, 10/10," and we’ve protected that standard ever since.

Included with every mowing visit

✓String-trimming around fences, posts, trees, beds, utilities and play structures

✓Vertical edging along driveways, walkways and curbs

✓Detail trim against foundations and garden borders

✓Full blowdown — clippings off every hard surface before we leave

💡 Pro tip: Sharp bed edges do double duty: they look crisp AND they’re a root barrier that slows grass from creeping into your garden beds. A spring re-edge keeps both benefits all season.

Standalone edging work

Beyond weekly maintenance, we cut fresh spade edges for garden beds, re-establish borders that have blurred over the years, and sharpen up properties before listings, weddings and events. Paired with fresh mulch, re-edged beds are the single fastest visual upgrade a Guelph property can get.

Common Questions

Is trimming and edging really included in the mowing price?

Yes — every visit, at no extra charge. Our mowing starts at $40 per cut including trimming, edging and blowdown. When you compare quotes, make sure the other number includes the same.

Can I book edging without mowing service?

Yes. Standalone bed edging and property detail work are available across Guelph, usually bundled with mulching for the biggest impact.

Will string trimming damage my trees?

Not the way we do it. Trimmer line against bark girdles young trees — our crews trim close and finish by hand where needed, and we’ll recommend a mulch ring for vulnerable trunks.
