It isn’t easy—or often
safe, for that matter—to hang up your own Christmas lights. This is especially
true if you get around to doing it after snow and ice already exists on your
property.
According to the U.S.
Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) there were 13,000 emergency room
visits due to holiday decorating in 2014, with that number increasing each
year. In fact, approximately 200 people per day suffer injuries during the
holiday season, according to Patty Davis, a CPSC spokesperson. This is no joke:
Injuries (typically among older men) include broken bones, head and spinal cord
injuries, electrical shocks, internal bleeding, and even death. No
wonder healthcare professional recommend hiring residential Christmas
light installers to hang your lights and decorations if at all possible.
So contact us for all of your Christmas light hanging services. From set-up to storage, our elf
Christmas light installers will handle all of the work for you!
See how our
service works:
STEP 1: Planning & Estimating
We come to your
home to listen to your ideas and begin formulating 3–4 options for decorating
your house and/or property. We will also walk around outside and carefully
measure every surface that requires lights.
With all lighting and
decorative objects accounted for and planned, we will respond to our visit
within 24 hours with sketches and pricing for your approval.
STEP 2: Collecting Decorations
IF YOU WANT TO USE
YOUR OWN CHRISTMAS LIGHTING: You are responsible for untangling your lights and
inspecting/replacing broken or burned-out bulbs.
CHRISTMAS LIGHT &
EXTENSION CORD RENTALS: We rent commercial-grade LED lights—recommended
because they (1) reduce energy costs, (2) require fewer extension cords, and
(3) are far less likely to blow a fuse vs. non-LED lights. (Please note that
availability for rentals is limited, so book us early!)
All custom decor
(inflatables, wreaths, statues, etc.) are to be provided by the homeowner.
STEP 3: Installing Lights & Decor
Our
expert Christmas lighting installers will have your home
exterior (including gutter lines, roof, chimney, window frames, doorways,
etc.) and landscaping decorated within approximately 2-3 hours. If
necessary, we can include professional-quality clips to hang each bulb in a
uniform pattern, and install dusk-to-dawn timers.
Please note that we
will also set up your indoor tree, with hanging your ornaments and tinsel
available. We will also decorate your outdoor trees, bushes, and shrubs.
STEP 4: Maintaining Materials & Work
If any bulbs burn
out or affixed lighting or custom decor slips loose between
our set-up and pack-up, simply call us and we will come out to replace
lights or make adjustments free of additional charge!
We proudly stand
behind our services—which also includes a warranty for labor and materials that
we supply for the duration of the display. Does not cover accidents or
abuse, weather conditions, or defective materials/workmanship supplied by
others.
STEP 5: Removing Lighting & Decor
Once Santa has
returned to the North Pole (or the New Year has begun, depending upon your
pre-arranged schedule), we will return to your home to take down all
lights, extension cords, clips, tape, zip ties, screws, and other
materials that we used to provide this year’s Christmas cheer.
Before we leave,
however, we will complete…
STEP 6: Packing for Storage
Everything that you
own will be neatly disassembled and/or wrapped, and placed in boxes or bags for
your storage.
Then off we will ride
in our sleigh (OK, our truck), with a hearty “Happy New Year!” and our hopes to
see you next winter for a new and exciting Christmas lighting project!
