Robert in california the lights on this house were installed w. Ahoywhat i do is make up some light gauge wire hooks long enough to tuck under your tiles and then wrap the wire around the light cable. Happy new year here are some photos of our application. The clips worked pretty well.

Hang lights first along pillars eaves windows and posts as it provides you with a structural base for the design of your christmas lighting. Here is a link with many types of plastic clips to hang christmas lights with this prevents you from having to use any type of nails drilling through any tiles etcetera even though this is a link to order from online these are quite common and can be found at just about any decent sized department store thus preventing having to return clips that may not work properly buy them locally. Next you can utilize plastic clips for attaching your lights to the gutters or roof line as opposed to using a hammer and nail or stapler.

We will order some more lights for next season. We have clay shingles with no gutters. Likewise the width of your roof s surfaces will also have a bearing on the size of the clips you ll need.
