Outdoor & Exterior Work

The outside of your house says a lot.

From the moment someone pulls into the driveway, walks up the path, and sees your home’s exterior, they’re forming an impression. Keeping things clean, safe, and in top condition isn’t just about appearances—it’s about maintenance, protection, and extending the life of your property.

I’m Scott Luscombe, your local handyman in Port Perry, and I provide a complete range of outdoor and exterior services. Whether it’s gutter cleaning, fence repair, deck staining, or power washing siding, I bring the right tools, ladder, and know-how to make sure your property always looks its best.

Why Exterior Work Matters in Port Perry

Living in Port Perry Ontario, especially near Lake Scugog, comes with the beauty of changing seasons. But those same seasons bring challenges: leaves fall and clogged gutters can damage your roof and even your home’s foundation; freezing winter conditions cause rot and cracks; spring dirt and summer storms leave behind debris.

That’s why regular cleaning, inspection, and repair matter. A little care goes a long way in helping homeowners avoid expensive water damage, warped wood fences, or peeling painted siding. With the right services, you can protect your investment, improve security, and keep your property safe for your family year-round.

Exterior Services I Provide

Here’s a breakdown of my most popular services, all designed to help you maintain your home’s exterior in every season.

Gutter Cleaning and Repair

Few tasks are as important as keeping gutters clear. I clean gutters, repair damaged sections, and inspect downspouts for leaks. Left unchecked, clogged gutters overflow, causing water damage to siding, roof, and even your home’s foundation. I’ll remove leaves, twigs, and other debris with the right tools, hose, and sturdy ladder, keeping everything flowing as it should.

  • Gutter cleaning done safely and thoroughly

  • Fixing downspouts and sealing leaks

  • Checking for signs of rot or sagging

  • Seasonal maintenance before winter or after heavy storms

Power Washing for Siding, Decks, Fences, and Driveways

Over time, dirt, mildew, and debris cling to your home’s exterior. Using a power washer, I’ll blast away buildup from vinyl siding, wood fences, decks, and driveways.

  • Restore the look of your walls and siding

  • Extend the life of your painted surfaces

  • Make wood and vinyl surfaces look fresh and bright

  • Great for pool areas, patios, and outdoor furniture

Fence and Gate Repair or Replacement

Your fence does more than define your property—it provides security, style, and structure. I handle all types of fence repair, whether it’s wood fences showing signs of wood rot, or chain link fences that need repair.

  • Fix sagging or damaged sections

  • Install or replace wood fences for timeless appeal

  • Repair and reinforce chain link fences for highly durable, low maintenance protection

  • Check gates, railings, and latches for smooth operation

Deck Staining and Sealing

Decks take a beating from weather. Sun, rain, and winter snow cause cracks, rot, and fading. I’ll stain and seal your deck with various materials designed to protect and refresh the wood.

  • Stain to bring out natural grain

  • Seal to prevent wood rot and moisture damage

  • Inspect for loose boards and repair as needed

  • Keep your deck safe, sturdy, and stylish

Shed Assembly and Installation

Need more storage? I handle shed installation for homeowners who want extra space for tools, bikes, or seasonal bags and baskets. I’ll ensure it’s located on level ground, securely anchored, and ready to use.

  • Assembly of low maintenance, highly durable sheds

  • Installing shelves and hooks inside for organized storage

  • Perfect solution for yard and garden equipment

Mailbox Installation

Sometimes the little things make the biggest difference. I’ll install a new mailbox securely, whether at the curb or attached near your door. It’s a simple, affordable way to freshen up your home’s exterior and make mail delivery smoother.

Exterior Caulking and Sealing

Drafty windows, leaky doors, and worn caulking allow moisture inside. I’ll inspect seals and reapply caulk to keep your home’s exterior airtight. This helps you save energy, avoid water damage, and keep pests out.

Minor Landscaping and Seasonal Cleanups

Every season leaves its mark. I’ll handle light yard maintenance:

  • Remove leaves and debris in fall

  • Spring cleaning after storms

  • Inspect property edges, fences, and gutters

  • Keep your outdoor space looking tidy and inviting

Seasonal Challenges in Port Perry

In Canada, the weather changes fast. Spring rains overflow gutters with debris. Summer brings dirt, dust, and heavy storms. Autumn leaves fall and clogged downspouts threaten your roof. Winter snow and ice cause wood rot, cracks, and peeling painted surfaces.

By scheduling regular maintenance, you’ll maintain your property’s curb appeal, protect your home’s exterior, and avoid costly repairs.

Materials, Security, and Longevity

The right materials make a difference. I work with wood, vinyl, and metal for fences; exterior-grade paints and sealants for siding; and sturdy hardware for installing sheds, gates, and mailboxes. The result is long-lasting, highly durable solutions that boost security while staying low maintenance.
