Holiday Lighting: 4 Safety Reasons to Hire Professionals

The joyful spirit of the upcoming holidays is in the air, and if you’re looking for a way to be festive, then you need holiday lighting. Holiday lighting is a great way to make your home or business cheery and bright. But, unfortunately, every year, thousands of people hurt themselves trying to hang strands of lights. So, if you want to  injury, then here’s a list of four reasons you should hire Christmas Decor by Spartan Irrigation.

1. Equipment

Hanging holiday lighting from the eaves and around the roof of your home or business requires tall ladders and special equipment. Unfortunately, most people don’t have these handy, so they improvise with shorter ladders or equipment. Unfortunately, this is when accidents happen, and at minimum, most people find themselves stuck on their roofs. But our lighting professionals come prepared and well equipped to reach the highest peaks of your building. 

2. Work in Teams

Lighting professionals work in groups, adding to the safety of their crew. Most homeowners or business owners attempt to hang their holiday lights alone, without help or supervision from someone on the ground. Going this route is extremely dangerous and results in numerous accidents every year. But a team of pros has the backup necessary to ensure injury or falls don’t happen while hanging lights. 

3. Proper Hooks & Cords

Hanging holiday lights requires the use of special extension cords and hooks. One of the biggest mistakes you can make is using a faulty extension cord or nails to hang your lights. The wrong cord could lead to a short or even an electrical fire, and nails driven through the strand of lights could cause damage to your home or the lights themselves. So, if you want to avoid any potential hazards this holiday season, you need professional holiday lighting.

4. Professional Take Down

When you hire Spartan Irrigation to hang your lights, you can also count on us taking them down. While you might think it’s not a big deal to try this yourself, we recommend you let us handle it. Much like putting them up, taking them down requires the same equipment and expertise to navigate the roof. Additionally, we know how to look for icy spots and avoid them while we work, something you may not think about doing the job yourself.
