If towns had second names, Ladysmith’s might just be Quaint. A lovely small community on the eastern shore of Vancouver Island, it was named after Ladysmith, South Africa. An important early port location for the coal and lumber industries, Ladysmith is now growing as people discover this self-contained know-your-neighbor community. Heritage holds a strong place in the traditions of Ladysmith, and there is much attention to protection of traditional Stz’uminus First Nation culture and beautiful hundred-plus year-old local architecture. Some of the growth is simply because the Vancouver region has been discovered in general for the quality of life, outdoor activities, and forward-looking governance for which the region is known. Ladysmith itself, though, has a great mix of old-world charm and a high livability with full amenities, beautiful shoreline, and an active community all its own. If you are looking for a great small town, Ladysmith probably should be on your list.

Convenient to other parts of the island, Ladysmith also shares much of the weather pattern found around the Nanaimo-Vancouver area. Due to the eastern island location Ladysmith does not get as much wind off the Pacific, but does get a fair amount of rain, leading to pollen and other debris that can cause your home’s exterior to become dingy. Exterior house cleaning is recommended to get the salt deposits as well as blown dirt and dust off, extending the life of your home’s finish. Outbuildings also benefit from regular gentle pressure washing to extend their exterior finishes and roofs’ lives.

Whether you own a home or business in Ladysmith, one thing we all know has to be faced is regular gutter cleaning. Ladysmith is known for beautiful foliage and more moderate climate, but we do get leaves and other build-up that settle into gutters on homes and businesses. It is important to keep your gutters clear so they can do their real job of catching and diverting rain and run-off from winter storms. Backed up gutters cause water to push up under drip cap, run down where it is not intended, and in a worse case, cause foundation damage. Overflowing gutters also make for messy sidewalks and runoff that can damage flowerbeds, lawns, and even driveways.
