🎄The holiday season is here and its time to hang those Christmas lights. 🕯While you sort out all your decorating and plan your masterpiece be sure to be ready the Do’s and Dont’s of hanging your christmas lights. 🎅🏼🎁
When you're hanging Christmas lights on a roof, you shouldn't use any fasteners that puncture the shingle or any
other part of the roof, such as nails, staples or screws.
Even small holes in the shingles can create leaks. Small holes in gutters may allow water to leak where it shouldn't, and holes in the fascia board may cause it to rot.
So, if you shouldn't puncture holes in the shingle, how do you secure Christmas lights to your roof?
Here are some types of hooks and clips that can help you.
🎄Simple hooks
🎅🏼Clip to the line
🤶🏼Clip to the bulb
✨ peak clips
🎄 These clips allow for easy hanging of your lights directly onto your roof. Best part? They do not damage your roof whatsoever with holes or staples.
👷🏽♂️But above all, use extreme caution and safety if getting on top of your roof to hang lights. Again, if this is something you are not comfortable doing, there is no need to be a hero. Rather, consider hiring a professional who specializes in Christmas light installation.
If it’s been some time since you’ve had your roof assessed, now is a great time to do so before hanging your holiday lights this season. Give yourself a little peace of mind knowing your roof is in great shape so can make your Christmas lights display be the talk of the neighborhood this year.
