We help you balance cost, aesthetics, and maintenance requirements for your specific lot size.

Clean gutters twice yearly — after spring pollen and after fall leaves. Check for proper slope (¼" per 10 ft toward downspouts), tighten loose brackets, and ensure downspouts direct water at least 4 ft from the foundation. Gutter guards reduce maintenance significantly and are worth the investment on homes near trees.

Composite decking (Trex, TimberTech) handles Ontario's freeze-thaw cycles, UV exposure, and humidity without splitting, warping, or rotting. While it costs more than pressure-treated wood initially ($30–$45/sq ft vs. $20–$30 installed), the zero-maintenance longevity provides better value over 20+ years.
