Common Questions About Seasonal
Do you check for damage while you're up there?
Yes - I check brackets, joints, and overall condition. If something's coming loose or cracked, I'll let you know. Better to fix a bracket now than wait until gutter falls off in a storm and damages more than itself.
Do you empty and pack it away at the end of summer too?
Yes - that's actually the service most people forget about then regret in September. I'll drain it properly (not just into your lawn in one spot), clean it off, dry it if weather allows, and fold it properly for storage. Saves you a soggy mess in the shed and means it'll survive for next year.
What outdoor Halloween decorations can you install?
Everything from inflatables and yard props to hanging decorations on your porch, mounting things on walls or fences, setting up light displays, positioning animatronics - basically anything that goes outside. I'll make sure it's all secured properly to survive the wind.
Why should I store my patio heater for winter?
Left outside all winter, they corrode, seals perish, spiders nest in the burners, and you'll struggle to get it working next year. Gas regulators especially hate being left outside - they go brittle and leak. Twenty minutes to store it properly now saves you buying a new one in spring.
Will you take it down after Christmas too?
Yes - most people book me to pack it away in early January. I'll disconnect everything safely, clean off any mud, and pack it properly so it stores well for next year. Same pricing - usually quicker as I know where everything goes.
What does a parasol spring check involve?
I check the opening/closing mechanism works smoothly, lubricate any stiff parts, clean the fabric (or advise if it needs proper washing), check the base is stable and weighted correctly, and spot any damage that needs fixing. Basically making sure it's ready for a summer of use rather than finding problems when guests are over.
