Default Shrub/Weed/Bushes Trimmed

I'm looking for a person(s) who just trims/weeds shrubs/plants, etc. I don't want a person who mows and trims - I've had two such companies and it just didn't work out - they were good with mowing but not keeping shrubs trimmed. I had a guy actually cut down a flowering crape myrtle tree! Boy was I mad! I find when it's all under one hat, some part of it lacks and it's usually the trimming.

I have a mower (for now). Just looking for a person who knows their plants and knows how to trim bushes and palms.

Thanks

I'm having a guy come out this week - got his name from an ad in the Daily Sun. His name is Jamie. His quote was a bit higher than I expected but I'll give him a try and let you know how he is.

Just an update - Jamie came out to trim my shrubs as well as removing a few bushes, weeding, etc.

Overall he was decent but not fantastic --plus, he was expensive. Would I call him back? Doubtful!
