Advent calendar hung securely and level, without damaging your walls. Whether it's a heavy wooden one with drawers or a fabric calendar with pockets, I'll get it up safely so you can focus on the chocolate.
### Start December Without the Faff
You've got enough to do in December without wrestling with an **advent calendar that won't hang straight**. Heavy wooden ones need proper fixings. Fabric ones need to be level or they look wonky. And nobody wants to put holes in the wall if they're renting.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** The best spot for an advent calendar is somewhere the kids can reach but not accidentally knock - inside an alcove or on a chimney breast wall works brilliantly.

### Why Bother Getting Help?
Fair question. Here's when it makes sense:
| ✅ Worth It | ❌ Maybe Not | |-------------|--------------| | Heavy wooden calendar with drawers | Lightweight card calendar you've hung before | | Fabric calendar that needs to hang perfectly level | Calendar with a simple picture hook | | Rental property and you want no damage | Quick DIY job and you've got the tools | | Want to hang Christmas decorations at the same time | Just one calendar, nothing else needed |
---
### What You Get
**🔧 The Right Fixing**
| Calendar Type | How I Hang It | |---------------|---------------| | **Wooden with drawers** | Proper wall plugs and screws into solid fixing points | | **Fabric/felt** | Level batten or command strips depending on weight | | **Lightweight card** | Damage-free adhesive hooks or pins |
**📦 Quick & Clean** - Hung level (I check with a spirit level, not by eye) - No mess, no fuss - Wall stays intact (or tiny holes filled if needed)

Good to Know
> 🎨 **Got other decorations?** If I'm coming to hang your advent calendar, it makes sense to get me to hang your Christmas wreaths, garlands, or lights at the same time. Already set up, so it won't add much time. **Rental property?** I can use damage-free methods or fill any small holes with decorator's filler before you move out. Just let me know. **Old houses in Exeter** with solid walls are actually easier for this - I can drill and plug properly. Newer houses with plasterboard need the right fixings or you'll pull the wall apart when you take it down.
Frequently Asked Questions about Advent calendar hanging in Tiverton
Can you hang an advent calendar without making holes?
Depends on the calendar. Lightweight card ones - yes, I can use command strips or similar. Heavy wooden calendars with drawers need proper fixings, but I'll use the smallest holes possible and fill them afterwards if you're renting.
Will it damage my wall when I take it down?
Not if it's hung properly. I use the right fixing for your wall type and the calendar's weight. For rental properties, I can use damage-free methods or fill any small holes when you're done.
Can you hang it in a doorway or awkward spot?
Usually, yes. I've hung advent calendars on chimney breasts, alcove walls, the backs of doors, you name it. As long as there's a surface to fix to, we can make it work.
My calendar has 24 separate pockets - can you help with that?
Absolutely. Whether it's a single calendar or one of those fabric ones with individual numbered pockets, I'll get it hung straight and secure. The fiddly ones actually benefit most from having someone do it properly.
Is it worth getting someone in just for an advent calendar?
That's up to you! But if you've got a lovely wooden one or a big fabric calendar and you're dreading getting the drill out (or don't have one), then yes. Takes me half an hour and it's done right. Plus, I can hang your other Christmas decorations while I'm there.
