"By far the most economical company I inquired to. I like the idea of paying for the lights and then keeping them so next yr. its just the labor to reinstall them and so its much less in the long run."

"Matthew did a fantastic job installing our new quad-receptacle GFCI outlet in our basement. We will absolutely hire him again in the future!! He was polite, punctual, communicated well with us, and his pricing was very reasonable. He cleaned up after his work, which we appreciated. He's definitely a professional electrician that I would refer to my family and friends."

Holiday Decorating questions, answered by experts

Considering the pros and cons of hiring a professional holiday light installer can help you decide if it’s right for you. Here are some advantages and disadvantages:

Pros

  • Saves time

  • Reduces stress

  • Produces for custom, high-quality designs

  • Provides better-quality lights

  • Reduces personal safety risks 

  • May Include takedown and storage services

Cons

  • More expensive than DIY light installation

  • Less control over the design

  • High demand for installers

  • Contractors may keep the lights and decorations

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.

No one has figured out a perfect solution to this problem. Tying icicle lights down or adding weights to them can help, but it’s a very time-consuming process and far from foolproof. If your winters are too windy, we suggest simply switching away from icicle lights to straight runs of non-dangling lights along the edge of your roof.

Yes, you must use an extension cord specifically rated for outdoor use to power outdoor lights, such as Christmas lights. Extension cords intended for indoor use lack the protective properties to withstand exposure to outdoor elements. To safely hang and power lights outside your house or in your yard, always connect them to an outdoor power source using an outdoor-rated extension cord.

Consider hiring your professional to decorate other areas of your house in addition to the Christmas tree. They can match the rest of your home decor to the tree's design and even extend the style to your outdoor holiday decor .
