Give the Gift of Lights For Christmas!

Give a gift everyone in the family can enjoy! The gift of Christmas lights!

“This year we surprised my parents by having lights installed on the outside of their home in Canton, Michigan. Steve was great in coordinating with me long distance to pull off the surprise (I live in Grand Rapids). My parents were overwhelmed with joy!

The lights are commercial grade and shine bright every night of the season! My folks live on a main road and their friends, neighbors and passersby have all commented on how beautiful the display looks.

Steve's crew was safe, professional and installed at their home without disturbing any landscape. I am excited to engage them year after year, as long as my parents are in their home.”

The Do’s and Don’ts of Holiday Lighting!

Are you new to hanging holiday lights?

Do you want your home to sparkle this holiday season?

Are you unsure about what best practices are when it comes to hanging holiday lights?

No problem! We’re the experts when it comes to hanging Christmas and we’re happy to share some helpful knowledge and advice.

Do:

• Use supplies made for outdoor use.
• Use clips rather than staples so you don’t ruin your roof.
• Store your lights properly by unknotting light strands and use a twist tie to keep single strands of lights separated.
• Take advantage of specialty lights! Single strands are great for spiral wrapping and outlining your home. However, icicle lights are great for straight elements like gutters and columns, while net-style lights are perfect for bushes and hedges.
• Connect similar strands together. If you’re hanging incandescent lights, connect all of those together. If you’re using LED lights, connect all of those together. You could short out or blow a fuse, as different lights require different amounts of power.

Don’t:

• Hang lights by yourself. Safety first! Have someone help you anchor the ladder as you climb. 
• Hang multiple strands together. If you hook more than 3 strands together, your lights can short out. 
• Throw away extra bulbs and fuses. These extras may come in handy next year when your light strands decide to quit on you. 
• Connect incandescent and LED strands together because incandescent lights require more power. Your lights can overload and fry.
• Use more lights then your circuit breaker can handle.

If you decide that having professional Christmas light installers in Ann Arbor do the job right the first time around is a better choice for you, give us a call. We’re happy to make your dream holiday light display come true!

Holiday Decorating at the Appropriate Time

Want to keep the peace and be a good neighbor this holiday season?

How do you determine the appropriate time to decorate for the holidays?

Every year, decorations get put up earlier and earlier whether at a department store or a neighbor’s house. However, Christmas decorations can overstay their welcome.

How can you ensure that you decorate at the appropriate time while also saving your relationships with the neighbors? Here’s an overview of how to determine the appropriate time for holiday decorating from Apartment Therapy:

1. Holiday lights are OK to go up the day after Thanksgiving. You can take them down anytime after New Year's Day, but before January 6th—that's Three Kings Day and the last of the 12 days of Christmas.
2. Be aware of your neighbors' floor plan. Does their bedroom window back up to the side of your house? If so, it might be in good taste to not put lights up there. If you're not sure, don't hesitate to ask your neighbors about the lights disturbing them. You'll both be glad to avoid a "Deck the Halls" moment.
3. It's OK to keep the lights on all night, as long as you're not disturbing any neighbors. But to save power, consider putting your lights on a timer.
4. Blow-up decorations are always fun for kids, but be careful where you place them in your yard. Take care not to block anyone's visibility of the road or their driveway.
5. If your neighbors are the ones guilty of decorating too early, approach with caution. You don't want to Grinch on their Christmas display, but if their lights are keeping you from sleep, it's OK to say something. Be polite and offer a compromise, such as a turn-off time for the lights.

If you want to ensure a Grinchless Christmas, we advise you to follow our advice on how to determine the appropriate time to decorate your home for the holidays outlined above. There’s nothing worse than dealing with a scrooge during the most wonderful time of the year. Don’t let that be you!
