"I highly recommend Joe. He responded promptly to my inquiry, quoted me a fair price for the work and the quality of his work was excellent. Joe is a skilled electrician that completed a number of difficult renovation type installations for us. We would not hesitate to call him again for any future services."

"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.

Holiday Decorating questions, answered by experts

Hiring a professional for holiday decorating, especially for hanging lights, is often well worth the investment for several reasons. A key benefit is safety; if you are physically unable to hang lights due to injury, or if your home has multiple stories or other high places that pose a safety hazard, a professional can handle the job securely. They also have the expertise to assess your electrical system to ensure it can handle the load. Hiring a pro is also a great option for homeowners who lack the time or capability to decorate. Professionals can create a stylish, chic, and upscale look that will wow your guests, and they may even save you money on decor. Finally, many holiday lighting experts include maintenance and repairs as part of their rates, ensuring your display looks great throughout the season without any extra effort on your part.

Decorators often prefer artificial Christmas trees. They’re easier to handle and shape, and decorators don’t have to worry about bugs or allergies. It’s also an ideal choice because artificial trees keep up appearances without owners needing to schedule watering. 

However, always confirm that decorators are ready to unbox and set up the artificial tree. If they don’t include tree set-up in their services, you may need to hire a general handyperson for that task.

Ensure you have a safe environment for them to work on, and there aren’t items such as logs, build-up of yard materials, missing or damaged shingles, and weak areas on the roof. Communicate any known electrical issues with contractors at the beginning of the project, and consider hiring an electrician to fix those. Finally, if you are attempting the project yourself, do so when there isn’t any rain, and you can safely get your footing on the roof using proper equipment, such as an extension ladder. Don’t attempt this alone, and have a helper nearby to assist.

Yes, a holiday lighting installation can be a DIY project. While it is possible for homeowners to do it themselves, it's crucial to ensure all safety precautions are taken. This includes using the proper tools, following electrical safety guidelines, and carefully planning the layout. For large or high displays, professional installation is often recommended to ensure safety and a more polished appearance.

If you take home a pre-lit Christmas tree but want to spruce it up with blinking lights, don’t worry, there’s a simple solution. You can easily replace the light bulbs on the pre-lit tree with flashing bulbs. For a more subtle look, only replace some of the bulbs with flashing bulbs.
