"Our kitchen remodel with McCormick Home Builders went beyond our expectations. Leoni and her team took the time to understand exactly what we wanted. The open layout design changed the way we use the space, and it’s been perfect for family gatherings. They were prompt, courteous, and genuinely invested in making sure we were happy. Really impressed!"

"Eric was professional, showed up on time guided me through how the project was going to go and what needed to be done based off my idea and how I?d like the end result to look. Made sure the correct materials for the project were ready from start to finish. Installed sub panel, ran all the wires to lights/ ceiling fans/ switches/ added a few 3 ways switches for the kitchen and living room. Added outside lights for the the driveway. Installed the stove hood. All work was done to code and safety requirements. I was very happy with the end project result. I have even already started planning for a new project to add lights and a few outlets for a deck I plan on building. Highly recommend, straight forward, good planning and work ethic, explains work and works by code so everything is done properly."

"My roof and the gutters needed to be cleaned, and the roof had not been done in years. Cleaning of the roof went better than I expected, and was so happy to get all the mol and pine needles off my roofs! Gutters were cleaned right before a major storm, and it was so nice to see the water go where it was supposed to :-). Quick, nice to work with, and cleaned up nicely after themselves."

Holiday Decorating questions, answered by experts

The type of lighting you choose can have a big part in the aesthetic and function of your space. Ambient lighting refers to indirect or diffused lighting that evenly reaches most areas of the space. Task lighting illuminates specific areas, such as a workspace. Accent lighting draws attention to details in your home, and decorative lighting draws attention to itself.

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.

Professional holiday decorating services cost between $300 and $2,500 or more, with an average cost of about $1,500. The total price depends on the size of your home, the extent of the work, your location, and whether materials are included. Simple interior decoration may cost around $300, while a combination of interior and exterior work often totals around $800. For large or extensive design services, you could pay $2,500 or more. Common service costs can include: exterior holiday light installation ($400), Christmas tree decoration ($200–$600), interior holiday design ($50–$200 per hour), and holiday landscaping ($50–$100 per hour). Note that some prices may only include labor, not the cost of the decorations themselves.

If you don’t have a ladder, you may be able to use a light-hanging pole. If not, you’ll have to rent a bucket lift or other machinery to reach your roof. 

First of all, don’t shop for bargain lights—often, you’ll end up with a faulty or broken strand, full of dead bulbs or less-than-luminous brightness. Choose quality lights that will last you many years—LED lights have been known to last as long as 100,000 hours. Second, plan ahead and purchase lights for next year’s Christmas during this year’s post-holiday sales. Finally, have a vision and a plan—if you know the measurements of your home, including any windows, doors, and outside bushes you wish to light up, you should be able to only purchase the necessary lights and not more than you need.
