Hanging christmas lights

$30

Thornhill Park VIC 3335, Australia

6th Dec 2025

Would like someone to help hang christmas lights on our front facade, unfortunately our ladder isn't high enough. Wanting them hanging from the white metal part as highlighted in the picture. It is just one set of lights. Clips prepared and provided to stick on. If possible to get to the top of the roof, I'd consider doing the same to line the triangle shape of the roof. Would light your recommendation if the clips should go just under the metal bit as theyre not weather proof. If the lights are long enough happy for them to wrap around the side of the white bit and hoping the solar panel is long enough to go into the ground near the porch so we can leave lights up all year round and turn on only im December. Happy to get this done later today or tomorrow. Just looking for someone handy and experienced with Heights, not so much a professional that will charge alot.
