Rocklin roofs come in three flavors on any given street: Mediterranean tile, solar panels, and a lot sloping toward the curb. We’ve clipped lights to all three before lunch. If you’d like to skip the ladder part entirely, that’s pretty much our whole job. We’re Buddy’s Christmas Light Hanging, just down I-80 in Citrus Heights, and Rocklin Christmas light hanging for homes and businesses is a big part of our season. We supply the lights, put them up, keep them working and come back for them in January. Free quotes at (916) 510-0929.
Rocklin roofs keep us on our toes
In a single afternoon we might work on tile, route around a full solar array, and set a ladder on a front yard that drops toward the street. So we look before we climb, and every house gets its own plan instead of the same setup we used next door.
Rocklin Christmas light hanging by neighborhood
Whitney Ranch. Newer two-story homes up on the plateau west of Highway 65, lots set close together, and a whole lot of solar. We never clip to, drape over, or run cord across panels. Lights follow the gutter line and gable edges and stay clear of the array and its wiring. Second-story eaves mean taller ladders and a partner footing them, which is just normal for us.
Stanford Ranch. One of the more established parts of town, with mature landscaping and plenty of tile roofs. Tile gets a different clip than shingle. Ours grip the tile edge or hook the gutter without lifting or cracking anything, and we keep our boots off tile whenever we can. Those grown-up trees are great candidates for a wrap, too.
Whitney Oaks. Built around the golf club, and hilly. Sloped yards mean careful ladder footing, and front walks that climb or drop from the street. We space the stakes so the path still reads clearly from the curb even when it’s going uphill.
Springfield at Whitney Oaks. The gated 55-plus community up on the ridge, full of people with zero interest in climbing onto a roof, which is the correct amount of interest. We stick to the HOA guidelines and keep everything tidy and on a timer.
Clover Valley. Big wooded lots and custom homes, often with long driveways. Driveway stakes and trunk wraps on the larger trees do a lot of work out here. We map extension runs carefully, because the nearest outlet can be a surprisingly long walk from where the lights end up.
Sunset West and Old Town Rocklin. Sunset West has roomy yards with space for stake lighting and a couple of wrapped trees. Old Town, by the old quarries, has older, smaller houses with character and actual front porches, and a porch is just asking for garland on the rail and a wreath on the door.
Everything past the roofline
Roofline lights are the backbone, held on with clips. After that you pick. Wrapped trees, from the trunk up into the branches. Pillar wraps and column wraps on your porch posts. Stakes marking the walk, the driveway or the lawn edge, each one placed clear of the sprinklers. Lit wreaths for doors, windows and garage peaks. Lit garland along the entry, the stair rail, an archway or the banister inside the front door. A timer runs the show so you never touch a plug. Our residential Christmas light installation page has the fuller rundown. We also do a few Rocklin storefronts and church entries.
Questions Rocklin folks ask us
Is buying lights on me?
Not at all. We bring them.
What if part of it goes out?
Call (916) 510-0929 and we’ll fix it. Wind happens, rain happens.
Do you take them down too?
We come back in January and take everything down and away. You don’t store a single bin.
Do you work outside Rocklin?
Yes. We’re hanging lights in Roseville, Loomis and Granite Bay all season, so Rocklin sits on our regular loop.
Will the clips hurt my roof or gutters?
They shouldn’t. Clips hook on and slide off, and we match them to the roof, so tile and shingle each get their own kind. Nothing gets nailed, stapled or glued.
Can you work within my HOA rules?
Sure. Send over the guidelines and we’ll plan around them. Timers help a lot here, since many HOAs care most about what time lights go off.
When should I call?
Sooner gives you the most choice of install dates. A call in October or early November is ideal, though we’re happy to hear from you later too.
