Christmas garden lights installed safely and weatherproofed properly. I put up whatever festive lights you've bought, position them to look good, make all connections weatherproof, and set up a timer - leaving you with a display you can actually enjoy without worrying about electrics or ladders.
### Make Your House The Christmas House
You know that house in your street that **actually looks festive**? Proper lights, well positioned, the whole garden looking magical?
Yours could be that house.
Instead it's "we've got lights somewhere in the loft" followed by discovering half don't work, the clips are missing, and you'd need a death-wish to get them on the roof edge in December weather.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** Professional light installation isn't just safer - it looks dramatically better. Level lines, no wonky sections, positioned where they're actually visible from the street.

### Why Not Just DIY It?
Because ladders in December are properly dangerous, and most people's "quick job" looks rushed.
| ✅ Done Properly | ❌ DIY Struggle | |------------------|-----------------| | Level lines around roof edge | Wonky strings with gaps | | Weatherproof connections | Trips the RCD first time it rains | | Timer for automatic operation | Manually plugging in every night | | Safely installed, no ladder work | Hospital trip avoiding strategy |

Safely installed without you needing ladders
Weatherproof connections that'll last the season

What to Expect
### Step 1: Planning Quick chat about what you've got and where you want it. I'll advise on positioning for best effect - some spots look great from inside but invisible from the street, some positions make lights look sparse. ### Step 2: Installation All lights go up using proper outdoor clips and fixings. Connections are weatherproofed, cables are secured neatly (not just dangling), and everything's positioned level. Timer gets set up for your preferred hours. ### Step 3: Testing Everything gets turned on before I leave. Check all sections work, timer's set right, no loose connections. You'll see the full effect before I pack up.

Good to Know
> 🎅 **Book early:** December gets busy for light installation. First two weeks of December is peak time. Book November if you want prime slots. **Removal service:** Most people book me back first week of January. Lights come down, packed away properly, clips saved for next year. Usually takes 30-50 minutes for a standard display - £60. **Own your lights for years?** Consider permanent fixing points (small screw eyes in soffits) that stay up year-round. Next year's install is much faster - just hook and go. Barely visible rest of the year.
Frequently Asked Questions about Garden light installation Christmas in Tiverton
What kind of lights can you install?
Pretty much anything - string lights around trees, icicle lights on gutters, net lights on bushes, ground stake lights along paths, illuminated figures on the lawn. If it's for outdoor Christmas display and you've bought it, I can get it up safely and working properly.
Do I need to buy the lights myself?
Yes - I install what you've bought. But I'm happy to advise before you buy if you want thoughts on what'll look good for your house size or what's worth the money. Some lights are utter rubbish quality that won't last the season.
How do you attach them without damaging the house?
Proper outdoor clips that hook onto gutters, fascias, or soffits - no nails, no screws. For trees it's hooks or cable ties that don't damage bark. For walls I use outdoor command strips or tiny screw eyes that leave barely-visible holes. Everything comes down cleanly in January.
Can you set them up on a timer?
Yes - that's actually included. I'll set up an outdoor timer so lights come on at dusk and turn off at your chosen time. Much better than going outside every evening to plug them in, especially when it's pissing down with rain.
What about taking them down after Christmas?
Separate job, but yes - I do removal too. Most people book me for first or second week of January. Lights come down, connections checked for next year, everything packed away properly. Or you can do it yourself if you want.
