"Dave Dilger, from Holiday Creation, was professional, courteous, pleasant and produced a beautiful design for my house.  The cost was high, but the design looked was perfect.  I told him what I wanted changed and we settled on a design.  Within 10 days, workers came to decorate my house.  One problem was that they kept knocking on the front door and asking what was suppose to be done.  Finally, I printed out the design picture of the house on my printer and handed it to them.  The workers did two major things wrong;  the large tree in front was supposed to be decorated to the TO THE TOP (as shown in the picture).   Even after I called, and a second group of workers returned, they could not reach the top.  The representative, Dave, agreed it should be to top, but I gave up calling to have it altered. Holiday Creations should have used a cherry picker instead of long poles.  The poles seemed to be too short to ever reach the top, even when the workers stood on a ladder with a pole.  Second, the garland was suppose to be wrapped 5 times around the front columns near front door.  The first set of workers wrapped the garland sloppily THREE times around.  When they returned to fix this, it did get done.  A third thing also occurred;  the timer for the front of the house was set 20 minutes before the other timer, which controlled the rest of the house.  This happened when the workers came out for the second time to work on the front tree.  I didn't complain as it was almost Christmas.
Finally, the company said they would start taking down Christmas lights Jan. 2nd.   Three weeks after that, my husband and daughter asked me to call as they were embarressed by the lights, since everyone around us had stopped having lights by Jan. 9.  I called and workers did come to my house within days.
The wreath supplied in my package, when put on my house was far too small.  So, when I first called, Dave Dilger upgraded the wreath to a 4 ft. wreath without cost.  He also assured me that the work would be fixed and shouldn't have been left as it was.  I have not called HC yet, but when when pre-paying, I am going to request that we take care of the wreath and ask if they wanted to alter the price, or decorate something else.
Everyone associated with the office and Dave Dilger genuinely wanted to have top notch work done, were very helpful in retictifying anything which wasn't right, and overall I enjoyed my experience with the company and look forward to having moving my house decorated next year.  I learned that I needed to follow the workers and check the work out before they leave, and that if anything needs to be fixed, changed, etc., I must followup with Dave and/or the office staff everyday until it is to my satisfaction.  When I was dealing with Dave or the office staff, I felt confident that the work would get done properly.  However, their workers weren't as professional and meticulous as I had hoped.

"Ken did a fabulous job. He had painted a different home for me over 5 years ago, but I remembered that he did a great job at a great price, so I called him back when I purchased another home. I needed the house to be painted a week that I had to go out of town. Ken was extremely professional, reliable and trustworthy. I gave him the instructions, a key to my house and went out of town for the week. When I returned over the weekend, the work was complete and was high quality. He called me after the work was completed and asked if there was any touch up work needed. There were only a few spots that needed touching up and he quickly returned to do those. If you need a high quality paint job at an affordable price, I would highly recommend Ken."

"Alan's Landscaping did a great job! They removed the front flower bed and trees. They installed a new bricks to define a new flower bed, added top soil and mulch, planted new shrubs. They also moved some struggling shrubs (between the drive and the sidewalk) to a better location and planted new shrubs. The team that came to work was fast and professional. All of the work was completed in one day. They kept me informed of the progress and checked in with me a few times during the day to make sure that their work was in line with my expectations...which they exceeded. I feel like they went above and beyond what I asked. They had some extra mulch and they added it around the base of my front tree and to the side of my garage by the property line that just had some weeds growing in it. When I have money to do landscaping in my backyard, I'm definitely calling Alans Landscaping!"

Holiday Decorating questions, answered by experts

There is no formal date for Christmas light removal, but January 2 is a standard day to take them down for many homeowners. However, some homeowners’ associations have strict rules around this topic, mandating that residents remove lights no later than two weeks after Christmas. Check with your local association or community for more information.

To get in the festive mood, you might turn to hanging holiday lights yourself. In many circumstances, DIY Christmas light installation can be cost-effective, not to mention fun. However, it’s best to consider any limitations to this task and how that might affect your overall project, like tall roofs. Consider hiring a Christmas light installer to place lights or decorations in hard-to-reach areas like roof peaks to avoid the risk of injury.

The easiest way to hang Christmas lights on your roof is to attach them to your gutters, but there are plenty of user-friendly methods to try. You can use light clips to easily hook Christmas lights to your shingles, eaves, gutters, or soffit. However, using a telescoping pole is a surefire way to ensure your safety while hanging Christmas lights because it doesn’t require using a ladder or climbing onto the roof.

Aside from a professional light installation company, there are a few other pros who may be able to help you hang Christmas lights. Along with specialty holiday decorators, a handyperson near you can also hang Christmas lights (and can fix that pesky drippy sink while they’re at it). Either way, not all of these pros will offer the service, so be sure to call ahead and get multiple quotes before you hire.

Several options for hanging Christmas lights won't damage gutters. Using shingle clips avoids any hardware contact with them, and using plastic gutter clips minimizes the likelihood of scratching gutters. Remember not to rest a ladder, especially a metal one, against the gutters, and use a ladder stand-off device or stabilizer if you need to use an extension ladder.
