Lodde ChristmasThe team at Herb Lodde Roofing would like to take this opportunity to wish you a safe and happy holiday, and to say thank you to our valued customers.

At this time of year, we remember how fortunate we are for all we have:

  • Family: We started as a small, family-run roofing business with a commitment to quality workmanship. We’ve since expanded in size, but always remember that family is what matters most in life.
  • Friends: Over the years, our friends have become true extensions of our family.
  • The Roofs above Our Heads: Not all members of our community have a guaranteed place to rest their heads. At this time of year, we are thankful for all that we have been blessed with, and will continue our commitment to our community and those who are less fortunate.

If you’d like to have a roof inspection before the holidays to make sure you’re in good shape for the winter, we encourage you to get in touch with us to arrange a date.

Quick Tips for Hanging Christmas Lights

As Christmas gets nearer, the decorations start going up. As you get ready to make your house sparkle, keep these tips in mind when it comes time to hang outside lights:

  • Measure lengths: Before you start attaching anything, ensure you have accurately measured your roof and light strings. You want to make sure you have enough lights before you start working.
  • Test your lights: Look for broken or missing bulbs and worn out or damaged wiring before you put lights up so you can make replacements on the ground.
  • Set ladders up with caution: Ensure your ladder is placed on flat ground, extended above the eaves, and is leaning at a good angle (neither too flat nor too steep). Get a spotter to keep an eye on you while you’re up there.

Take the opportunity while you’re working to inspect your roof’s condition. Check out our blog “Is Your Roof Ready for Winter Weather?” to learn what potential problems you should be keeping an eye out for.

From everyone at Herb Lodde Roofing, have a Merry Christmas and happy New Year!
