Throughout the Barrie area, attractive lighting displays are used to ring in the holiday season. While these displays are beautiful, they come at a cost – your time, energy and cash! Every year, property owners flock to home stores in search of great decorations, only to end up with subpar string lights, not built to withstand weather. Calling a Gorilla for your Barrie holiday light installation means high quality materials and excellent techniques, at any time of year.
Our team of highly trained technicians are able to swing into action, installing outdoor Christmas lights, Diwali lights, Chinese New Year lights, Halloween lighting, or even help you prepare for a family party or spring festival.
Exterior House Lighting: What You Should Know
Everyone knows that Ontario is known for having bitter winters. This is enough to make property owners want to curl up inside with a cup of hot chocolate, but when light installation is on your to-do list, it can mean hours outside, in the cold. While you might be able to bundle up, your lights and decorations cannot. Simple bulbs can become delicate in the cold, as can decorative lights, such as plastic pumpkins used as Halloween decor.
Instead of opting for cheap but festive lighting, our Gorillas use commercial grade LED light options, made to be durable and able to withstand temperatures below freezing. In addition to being bright and durable, these lights come in a variety of colours and patterns, able to accommodate everything from a Halloween party to lion dances, a Lunar New Year party and more.
Decorative light installations can be dangerous, in the same way that window cleaning can be dangerous. The majority of installations are done during colder weather, which often means frozen ground. Balancing a ladder on frozen ground, or walking across frozen roofing are dangerous tasks. One wrong step can quickly result in a serious injury. No one wants to spend the holidays in the hospital, so let an expert handle the heavy lifting for you!
In the same way that installing outdoor lighting is dangerous, removal poses the exact same issues! Pulling out staples or removing hooks has to be done while navigating heights, but improper removal of these can also mean damage to construction materials. Luckily, our Gorillas know how to both install and remove your accent lights without issue.
Hanging Your Holiday Lights: Celebrate In Style
Many of the lights that are available in a basic department store are “one size fits all”. Most property owners are stuck having to choose between white lights or multi-coloured strings, but these don’t fit every occasion. You may want to showcase bright colours of red and gold for Chinese New Year, or yellow and blue to match Diwali decorations. No matter the occasion, our experts can create a colour and style profile to match.
In the case of Christmas, for example, many property owners create unique designs that may not fit the traditional red and green palette. Choosing Gorilla for your Christmas light installation service means being able to choose from hundreds of styles and colour options for your LED Christmas lights. Instead of servicing lights alone, our experts provide landscape lighting, as well. Fairy lights can create the ideal backyard scenario, while flood lights and decorative spheres can help to guide guests along pathways. Mini lights showcase smaller areas, and custom cut strings can be used to illuminated wreaths and garlands. Say goodbye to sagging strings and build designs custom-cut to your unique needs.
