Gutter Cleaning in Newmarket, Ontario

About Newmarket

The homes and weather we work in

Newmarket grew up along the East Holland River, the waterway most locals just call the Holland. Joseph Hill's early mills dammed it into what is now Fairy Lake, and the town spread out from there across gently rolling hills that sit above the old Algonquin shoreline. That geography still shapes the work we do here. The ground is glacial sand and gravel, the Newmarket Till, with no rock to speak of, so what you notice above the soil is the tree canopy: the mature maples and pines along the Tom Taylor Trail, the plantings around Wesley Brooks Conservation Area, and the leafy older streets near the centre of town. Trees like that are the reason a gutter fills, a window spots, and a roofline gets interesting to light.

Few places in York Region have Newmarket's spread of housing eras. The Heritage Conservation District along Main Street, designated in 2013, holds buildings that predate almost everything else north of Toronto. The John Bogart House on Leslie Street went up in 1811 and is often called the oldest two-storey home north of the city. Around it sit the Robert Simpson Store and the Wesley Block, brick-and-timber structures with the kind of divided-light windows and narrow eavestroughs that need a careful hand rather than a pressure hose. Move west and north from downtown, though, and the story changes completely. After Upper Canada Mall opened in 1974 at Yonge and Davis, development pushed westward, and the decades since have filled in subdivisions of larger family homes with big picture windows, two-storey glass, and the steep, cut-up rooflines builders favour now. One town, two entirely different cleaning and lighting problems, and we treat each on its own terms.
