  Good morning ... and welcome.
  
  Do you have a photo, as that might help with advice.  (To add it, just click the symbol that looks like a mountain in a frame.)

  It's rarely a long term problem and usually corrects itself. You can just cut off any badly affected foliage. It's a bacterial situation, and it isn't something you can 'treat' as such, as the plants outgrow it as they mature and develop, and new foliage covers any damage   
  If the site it's in was well prepped, and the plants are otherwise healthy, I wouldn't worry about it.

  It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
  
  
  
  I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

  Is your laurel hedge the common laurel or Portuguese laurel?  Also, what kind of soil do you have @dimech277637570?

  Wirral. Sandy, free draining soil.
