"I called for a proposal and estimation of installing permanent outdoor holiday lights for my house, easy to make appointment and a representative shows up on time with samples and plans, very professional, but the price is beyond my budget.

"We have never hired an interior designer and Nick made us feel comfortable from our first meeting. He was extremely responsive and helpful to us and in answering questions our contractor had. The project is almost finished and we will certainly hire Nick again to help us "see" the possibilities!"

"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."

Holiday Decorating questions, answered by experts

Outdoor Christmas lights cost between $80 to $300 on average without installation. This comes out to about $4 to $50 per strand. You can get a box of outdoor Christmas lights for as little as $20, if you just want to decorate a small area, like a doorway. If you want to go all out and cover your entire home, you'll need between 10 to 20 strands of 100 to 200 bulbs each.

Christmas lights typically do not need to be grounded like electrical circuits in your home do. However, it's crucial to use outdoor outlets equipped with ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs) for added safety. GFCIs can help protect against electrical shocks and are recommended for outdoor electrical connections when using Christmas lights.

You can choose to hang Christmas lights on either gutters or shingles—either option is fine. If you have gutter covers, shingles may be your only option. But, all-in-one clips are designed for both applications.

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 need to visually inspect your Christmas lights to determine which are good and which need replacement, there are a few things to look for. First, look for discoloration, such as a dark spot or two on the inside of the glass. The spot is an indication of a burnt filament. Also, look for missing filaments, cracked bulb glass, and broken sockets.
