Let’s be honest—untangling lights, balancing on ladders, and battling the cold isn’t most people’s idea of holiday cheer. While DIY lighting might seem cheaper upfront, professional installation from LightsAround saves you time, stress, and even money in the long run. Here’s why going pro is the undisputed winner:

1. Your Time is Worth More Than You Think

🕒 DIY: The average homeowner spends 12+ hours hanging lights  (including shopping, troubleshooting, or takedown). That’s an entire weekend lost to frustration. ✨ Pro: Our team transforms your home in under 3 hours while you relax. That’s time back for baking cookies, shopping, or binge-watching holiday movies.

Math Don’t Lie: If you value your time at $25/hour, DIY “savings” vanish fast.

2. Safety First (Because ER Trips Aren’t Festive)

⚠️ DIY Risks:

• 160,000+ ladder-related injuries yearly (CPSC)

• Electrocution from worn wires or bad connections

• Roof slips (especially in icy conditions)

🔒 Pro Advantage:

• Insured, trained crews with commercial-grade equipment

• No risk to you—we handle every dangerous step

• Perfect for multi-story homes or tricky rooflines

3. The “Wow” Factor You Can’t Replicate

Fun Fact: 78% of our clients say neighbors stop to take photos of their display!
