Get matched with top holiday decorators in Felton, DE

Q: What safety concerns should I keep in mind when considering a holiday lighting project?

• <div><p>Ensure you have a safe environment for them to work on, and there aren&rsquo;t items such as logs, build-up of yard materials, missing or damaged shingles, and weak areas on the roof. Communicate any known electrical issues with contractors at the beginning of the project, and consider hiring an electrician to fix those. Finally, if you are attempting the project yourself, do so when there isn&rsquo;t any rain, and you can safely get your footing on the roof using proper equipment, such as an extension ladder. Don&rsquo;t attempt this alone, and have a helper nearby to assist.</p></div>

Q: Do you need a special extension cord for outdoor Christmas lights?

• <div><p>Yes, you must use an extension cord specifically rated for outdoor use to power outdoor lights, such as Christmas lights. Extension cords intended for indoor use lack the protective properties to withstand exposure to outdoor elements. To safely hang and power lights outside your house or in your yard, always connect them to an outdoor power source using an outdoor-rated extension cord.</p></div>

Q: Does cold weather affect Christmas lights?

• <div><p>Cold weather can cause older incandescent Christmas lights to fail by causing cracks in the finish or the glass itself. Modern LED lights are affected in the opposite way and perform even better as the temperature drops. </p></div>

Q: What bulb makes Christmas lights blink?

• <div><p>A blinking, or twinkle, bulb makes Christmas lights blink. Usually, this type of bulb has a silver or red tip, making it easily distinguishable from other non-blinking bulbs. Most packages of Christmas lights come with additional blinking and non-blinking bulbs. Additional bulbs can be purchased at a hardware store or online retailer.</p></div>

Q: How can you hang Christmas lights on a ceiling without using nails or hooks?

• <div><p>To hang Christmas lights on a ceiling without using nails or traditional hooks, you have several damage-free options. Adhesive hooks and clips are a popular choice. For smaller projects, you can use pushpins, tacks, or adhesive putty. Specially designed transparent tape that can hold weight without damaging paint is also effective. For a more creative approach, consider stringing the lights over a curtain rod near the ceiling. If you have a drop ceiling, look for clips and hooks designed to attach to the metal framing. Note that staples can also be used, but may leave small holes.</p></div>

"The door to be installed was an exact replica of the previous door, but it did not have any pre-exsisting cutouts for the hinges, door handle or deadbolt lock. The door was mounted in approximately 1 hour by two technicians that were very curtious and friendly. I was given specific instructions on how to best protect my door from the elements to ensure a long life. I would have given this company a five star rating, but I would like to see how their installation last over the next few years. For now, I would recommend their services as they were very professional."
