We typically use 3M adhesive hooks to secure your garlands in place. This is successful with most smooth surfaces and will not remove any paint or material from the wall. However, depending on the surface and wall textures, these hooks may not stick and we will need to use an alternate tape with stronger adhesive, such as gorilla tape, to adhere your garland in place. We will always ask for your approval first. Please be aware that there is risk of paint removal with this type of adhesive, but if removed slowly and carefully, you shouldn’t have any problems. If given permission to use a stronger adhesive, we will not be responsible if any paint or building exterior is damaged in any way.
