"Chris was very professional and friendly. He made a home visit at no charge to go over the things I needed installed and repaired. He told me what i needed to purchase for the small projects and he scheduled to come back another day and completed all the installations and repairs I needed. I will definitely be using Cooper Contracting again."

"My request started off as a simple drywall repair. After speaking with Lisa, we decided to hire them to also paint ceilings and walls in the living room, dining room, kitchen, laundry room, master bedroom, and hall. We also had a couple new ceiling fans we wanted installed, and Mike did a fantastic job with the electrical work. They went above and beyond any expectation we had. In spite of minor setbacks with the home improvement store we were dealing with, Mike and Lisa continued with a positive attitude. They even put up with our three dogs! And Lisa actually chased one of them down when she got out. Their attention to detail is second to none, and their level of communication was the highest. I can't say enough about D'Amico Construction. Not only would I recommend them highly, but my dogs loved them, too. Hire them. You will not be disappointed."

Holiday Decorating questions, answered by experts

In the Christmas days of yore, people braved winter weather to staple or tack their Christmas lights onto their rooftops or nearby surfaces like the fascia boards. Problems quickly emerged with that approach. Damage to the roof, even small marks from staples, provides entryways for moisture and similar issues that can hasten roof rot, wear, and associated leaks. Plus, some homes had tough fiber cement boards or other materials where staples and screws didn’t work.

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. 

There aren’t many alternative methods to hanging Christmas lights on fascia without using clips. But if you don’t have fascia clips to hang your Christmas lights, you can use clothespins in a pinch. To do this, hold the strand of lights in place and clip it in place with the clothespin. Using nails or staples is never a good idea, as they can damage your fascia.

If you need help with your holiday decorating, the first step is determining your lighting and decor needs to narrow down your pro options. For example, if you want a custom outdoor light display with all of the bells and whistles, you’ll likely need to hire a local holiday light installer who specializes in that service. But if you only need to hang some lights inside in hard-to-reach places, consider hiring a handyperson or an interior decorator instead. It’s best to contact at least three different companies for quotes and to find out what services they offer.

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.
