Santa Stop Here signs erected securely in your front garden. I handle the positioning, staking or weighting, and optional lighting - you get a festive sign that won't blow away.
### Maximum Christmas Cheer, Minimum Faff
A **Santa Stop Here sign** in the garden is pure Christmas magic for kids - but only if it's still standing upright when they walk past.
I'll position your sign where it looks best, stake or weight it properly so Devon wind doesn't flatten it, and add lights if you want it visible at night. Five minutes to delight every kid on your street.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** Position signs where passing children can actually see them - not hidden behind hedges or facing the wrong way.

Good to Know
> 🎄 **Multiple signs or decorations?** If you're having reindeer, lights, or other displays installed, I can do the Santa sign at the same time - one visit covers everything. **Takedown included:** If you book me to install your sign, I'll remove it in early January at no extra charge - just mention it when booking. **Exeter's older properties?** Some Victorian front gardens are tiny or have uneven ground. I can work with whatever space you've got - even fix signs to railings if there's no garden at all.
Frequently Asked Questions about Santa stop here sign in Ottery St Mary
How do you make sure the sign won't blow over?
I either stake it firmly into the ground (if it's a stake-style sign), or weight the base properly (if it's a freestanding one). Devon gets some proper wind in December - I make sure your sign stays put.
Do I need to buy the sign first?
Yes - you choose the style and size you want (loads available online or at garden centres), and I'll install it securely in your garden.
Can you add lights to illuminate it at night?
Absolutely - a little spotlight or some rope lights around the base makes it visible in the dark. I can set that up at the same time.
Where's the best place to position it?
Visible from the road so kids spot it as they go past, but not blocking your path or getting in the way. I'll suggest the best spot when I see your garden.
Will you take it down after Christmas?
Yes, I can come back and remove it in early January - saves you storing a muddy sign in your shed. Just mention when booking.
