Frequently Asked Questions

Not all gutters are the same; choosing the right one for your home can prevent future problems. While fascia gutters may seem cost-effective, they are more prone to clogging and require regular maintenance than conventional "Colonial" style gutters. At Simon's Seamless Eavestrough & Landscaping, we offer "Colonial" style gutters in various sizes, suitable for any project with or without fascia boards.

Gutter guards are products designed to cover or block the top of gutters to prevent debris, leaves, or other materials from entering and clogging the gutter system. They come in a variety of materials and styles, such as screens, mesh, and foam inserts. Gutter guards can effectively reduce the frequency of gutter cleanings and prevent damage to your gutter system.

The primary reason to replace old gutters is a system failure resulting from a lack of proper maintenance, substandard installation, or severe weather conditions. If you need clarification on the condition of your gutters, we offer thorough inspections and expert recommendations to help you make an informed decision.

The frequency of gutter cleaning largely depends on your environment and the type of gutter system you have. If many trees surround your home, it may require more frequent cleaning than those in open areas. To prevent any potential damage to your home, having your gutters inspected and cleaned at least once a year is recommended.

Topsoil is the upper layer of soil that contains the most nutrients and organic matter, making it ideal for planting and growing grass. It is important for landscaping because it provides a healthy foundation for plants and helps to retain moisture in the soil.

Proper mowing height is crucial for maintaining a healthy lawn. While some may think that cutting the grass short is beneficial because it reduces the frequency of mowing, it actually creates ideal conditions for weeds and grassy-type weeds to take over while also causing heat stress during the hot summer months and increasing the likelihood of lawn diseases. We recommend setting your mower blade height to no lower than 3.5 inches.

Adding topsoil to your lawn or garden may be beneficial if the soil is compacted, rocky, or lacking in nutrients. Additionally, if you are starting a new garden or lawn, adding topsoil can provide a healthy foundation for your plants to grow.

To ensure your lawn stays healthy during the colder months, you should take some important steps. These include removing any debris like sticks and leaves, giving your lawn a final mow at a shorter length than usual, aerating the soil, and applying a winter fertilizer with post-emergent weed control.
