Payment is expected upon the completion of satisfactory work unless prior arrangements have been made. Seasonal mow clients are invoiced once monthly and payment is due upon receipt. I offer discounts to seasonal customers on some jobs. Many of the tasks I perform have hourly minimums. Estimates are free.

Holiday Decorating questions, answered by experts

While Christmas lights are a wonderful way to light up your home during the holiday season, they don’t have a long lifespan. Most incandescent Christmas light bulbs are designed to last between 1,000 and 1,500 hours—or about one to three holiday seasons. More durable LED bulbs should last about 10 times as long. 

On average, holiday decoration services cost around $800, but prices can range from around $300 to to $2,500 or more, depending on the extent of the work and home size. Simple interior holiday decoration can cost closer to $300 while hiring a decorating pro to hang exterior lights and exterior decorations alongside the interior work will total around $800. For large decorations or extensive design and decoration services, you can expect to pay $2,500. Note that these prices only include labor, not the decorations.

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.

For many people, hiring a holiday decorator is well worth the investment. It’s an especially popular service for homeowners who don’t have the time or capability to decorate their property for the holidays. If you want an upscale holiday—especially if you’re hosting family or friends—then a high-end holiday design and decoration service can be worthwhile to make sure your home stands out and wows your guests.

Ensure you have a safe environment for them to work on, and there aren’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’t any rain, and you can safely get your footing on the roof using proper equipment, such as an extension ladder. Don’t attempt this alone, and have a helper nearby to assist.
