"D.B. Lunt Electrical Contractors is an exceptional company to work with. As the Director of the Engineering department at the Mystic Marriott, I rely on them for all of our electrical needs. Whether it's a simple hook-up for our new dryers or an extensive, multi-day project—such as running wiring for new signage or diagnosing complex, mislabeled, or incorrectly installed circuits—they handle it all with expertise. Felipe, Johnathan, and the entire team are consistently professional, straightforward, honest, and thoughtful. They truly understand our requirements and always prioritize the safest, most effective solutions. Beyond their technical skill, their pricing is fair, offering exceptional value for the quality of service provided. Furthermore, their administrative process—including quotes, invoicing, and overall communication—is spot on, with quick resolutions whenever adjustments are needed. I cannot recommend them highly enough. Also sharing on my personal account!"

Holiday Decorating FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Repairing a strand of Christmas lights will save you a few dollars and the hassle of going to the store to purchase new ones. That may or may not be enough to make fixing them worth it to you. However, if the lights are already hanging or around the tree, removing and replacing them is far more time-consuming than performing a quick repair job. 

You can attach Christmas lights to your palm tree by securely wrapping the strings around the tree. If you notice the strands slipping, you can also use a staple gun to secure them to the trunk.

The cost for professional holiday light installation averages around $430, with a typical range of $220 to $675. However, prices can be as low as $100 for simple projector setups or exceed $1,200 for extensive displays. The total cost depends on factors like the display's complexity, your home's size, labor rates in your area, and the type of lights used. For example, installation on a small, one-story home may cost $250 to $600, while a multi-story home over 4,000 square feet could cost $500 to $1,800. Costs can also be broken down by location (e.g., high roofs at $3.50–$6 per linear foot) or by the type of light strand, with prices ranging from $4 for basic incandescent strands to over $60 for color-changing LED strands.

Christmas lights typically do not need to be grounded like electrical circuits in your home do. However, it's crucial to use outdoor outlets equipped with ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs) for added safety. GFCIs can help protect against electrical shocks and are recommended for outdoor electrical connections when using Christmas lights.
