My business specialties in the clearest window and sill washing, which can also come with screen washing if wanted!!! Soon the business will also provide power washing, gutter cleaning, driveway sealing, and even hanging up Christmas lights. My team will not expect a payment until the costumer is satisfied with the outcome of the job.

Lighting questions, answered by experts

The requirements for outdoor lighting will vary depending on the type of light, where it’s located on the exterior of your home, and your local electrical code. Lights that come into contact with water (i.e. pool lights) will need to be on a GFCI, for instance. That being said, it’s safest to have any outdoor light on GFCI because of the risk of moisture. A pro can give you more specific information for your unique circumstances.

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. 

In most cases, outdoor lighting is a worthwhile investment. Installing lights around your property can drastically improve your home’s curb appeal, especially if you have a lighting professional design the system, and it can make your home more appealing and more valuable when you sell it. Outdoor lighting can also improve the security of your home, as lighting can help deter burglars, which is always a worthwhile investment.

There are a number of reasons that landscape lights burn out, including an incorrectly installed transformer, inconsistent voltage, and burned-out or faulty bulbs. Troubleshoot landscape lighting problems by first determining whether it’s a system-wide problem or an issue with just one light, which will help you get to the bottom of your outdoor lighting woes.

If your lights are shorting out during rain storms or other winter events, you should probably replace them. These shorts indicate electrical issues that could cause serious hazards. Look for outdoor-rated lights with connectors made for rainy conditions to replace them. But if your Christmas lights are new and you want further protection, you can find weatherproof covers to add to the male-end connectors of your Christmas light strings. These can minimize the risk of shorts.
