How long can you hang lights on stucco without damage?

• <div><p>The length of time shouldn’t matter much if you stick with lightweight Christmas lights and similar decorations. Those shouldn’t pose risks to your stucco. You should avoid attaching anything to your stucco that could fall because it’s too heavy, which may take part of the stucco with it. Some methods, like using double-sided tape or adhesive hooks, will naturally wear out over time and lead to falling lights, so don’t expect to leave these lights up year-round.</p></div>

Job well done. Walkways were cleared after the roof/gutters were cleaned. Worker was 1/2 hr late, which is the reason for the "B" on punctuality. We were happy to get an appointment during the holidays, since there was someone available when they were on college break.

Every time I came home the birds were in good shape and seemed to be in good spirits which I liked. I could call and ask them to do extra things with no problems. They charged $17 per visit and a little more on holidays. I would definitely recommend them to others.
