Q: Can I use duct tape to hang Christmas lights?

• <div><p>Technically, you can use duct tape to hang Christmas lights, but it&rsquo;s not the best bet. Duct tape or other types of tape retain moisture, which isn&rsquo;t ideal when near an electrical wire. Plus, it can peel off due to the elements. Duct tape is also a very unattractive option, visually speaking. Instead, opt for roof clips for Christmas lights, which are affordable and easy to use.</p></div>

Q: What maintenance is required for holiday lights?

• <div><p>Inspect for burnt-out bulbs, secure connections, and protect from water exposure to maintain functionality.</p></div>

Q: How do you synchronize Christmas lights to music?

• <div><p>Several Christmas light software options, like Vixen, LOR, xLights, Animated Lights, and Light-O-Rama, allow you to sync music to your Christmas light show right at home. All you need is a computer, the software, and a controller that connects to your laptop. Depending on your technical skills, you should choose more beginner-friendly software like Animated Lights or Vixen. </p></div>

Q: Do you need gutters to hang Christmas lights?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;t work.</p></div>

"S&C contracting was amazing to work with during the process of my new driveway and back patio. I called looking for a quote and they were out the next day to give me a price. Price was very competitive against all my other bids. They helped with the design of what I wanted for the patio and were prompt on getting me on their schedule. Communication was top notch, they were constantly updating me for when install would be. I wasn’t home during the install and they communicated with me while they were installing. The finish of the concrete turned out amazing and clean up was great as well. I highly recommend giving S&C a call!"
