Holiday Decorating questions, answered by experts

You can tackle hanging Christmas lights yourself with the right tools, accessories, and a trusted friend or neighbor. You’ll need to purchase a ladder ($100 to $300), clips ($10 to $20), hooks ($10 to $15), and lights ($25 to $100 per string).

Otherwise, you should hire a trusted holiday light installer near you. You’ll pay an average price of $200 to $650, but you’ll have peace of mind knowing that the job is done correctly and safely.

Take a picture of your house to easily replicate the same design for next year and keep the clips and accessories. When storing your lights, wrap them around cardboard so they don’t get tangled. Purchase a ladderless extension pole kit to hang your lights (around $30 to $50) for hard to reach areas.

If you don’t have a ladder, you may be able to use a light-hanging pole. If not, you’ll have to rent a bucket lift or other machinery to reach your roof. 

Yes, you can plug outdoor lights into an extension cord, but it must be one rated for outdoor use. This method will allow you to hang Christmas lights outside your house or yard by connecting it to an outdoor power source. Be sure to purchase and use an outdoor-only extension cord.

Professional installation offers several benefits, including a safe and efficient setup, access to specialized equipment, design expertise to enhance aesthetic appeal, and the assurance that electrical components are properly managed to prevent hazards or damage.
