Cut them down. They are seriously overgrown, and trimming is not a good
option. If they are yews, you *could* trim them on one side severely, wait
till it fill in a bit, trim the other side, but it would take years to get
them looking good. If they are anything other than yews, severe trimming
will most likely finish them off.

It may seem harsh and drastic, but believe me, you will feel a sense of
relief once they are out of there and you can replace them with more
appropriate choices. Don't spend years living with the past homeowner's
mistakes.

Cheers,

Hello,

I recently bought my first house and have two evergreen trees on the
front corners of the house that dont look so great. I dont think
they've been trimmed for some time and was wondering if some of you
would give me some suggestions. What would you do with them?
