"Scott successfully performed several handyman type jobs for me, including rebuilding the base of a post near our front door and installing a new outdoor porch light at my brother-in-law?s house. The porch light was particularly challenging due to old wiring. Scott carefully and meticulously worked through the issues to make sure the light was installed properly and safely."

"This was an usual project. It was redoing a mini bar. Hard to find a contractor that would do it or had the time. Homepro was great lead by project manager Shir Hadad. Jumped right in there and took it on and got the job done. Really appreciate their professionalism."

"I couldn’t be happier with the work done on my home. He was professional, thorough, and clearly takes pride in doing things the right way. What started as a repair to the flashing and paneling turned into an even better result than I expected, he went above and beyond and even replaced the vent above the paneling, which really shows the level of care he brings to his work. The finished result looks fantastic, and the repair blends in beautifully with the rest of the house. He was careful, responsive, and made sure everything was done properly from start to finish. It’s hard to find someone who is this reliable, skilled, and detail-oriented. I would absolutely recommend him for any job from small to big— he can do it all. I’m very grateful for the quality of his work and will gladly call him again for future projects."

Holiday Decorating questions, answered by experts

No, you shouldn’t insert an LED light into an incandescent socket. It usually won’t fit anyway, but in the unlikely chance that it does, its electrical demands are too different for it to work properly. 

There are many types of Christmas lights to choose from when working with a light installer. The main types available for outdoor lighting are dome, LED, incandescent, and C9, and your lighting professional’s choice will depend on the location and overall design. 

C9 lighting is typically the most expensive option, ranging from $15 to $70 per 25-foot strand. These usually have fewer bulbs per strand, so you might need more than expected to cover a large area. Dome lighting is usually the most cost-effective option, ranging from $6 to $15 per 25-foot strand. These bulbs are smaller and rounder than other options, creating a softer look.

Most contractors will include removal of your lights in the price of installation, but it’s always a good idea to double check. Storage of the lights is often also part of the package when you hire an installation professional, since you might choose to use the same lights for several years.

One of the easiest ways to save money when hiring a holiday decorator is to provide storage for your decorations. If you have the space, you can save hundreds or even thousands of dollars by avoiding storage costs through your professional. It’s also a good idea to provide as much direction as possible for your professional, as this can cut down on design services. Finally, you can pay for your decorator to take down your decorations at the end of the season, but packaging and storing them yourself will save money on labor.

Technically, you can use duct tape to hang Christmas lights, but it’s not the best bet. Duct tape or other types of tape retain moisture, which isn’t ideal when near an electrical wire. Plus, it can peel off due to the elements. Duct tape is also a very unattractive option, visually speaking. Instead, opt for roof clips for Christmas lights, which are affordable and easy to use.
