"They did the job scope and went beyond that with extra work I didnâ t ask for. I really liked the work done and would recommend them to anyone. The price was what we talked about and they stuck to the budget even with the extras they did."

"My wife had to have surgery on her leg and was not able to keep our home up to her normal standards. She was laid up in bed and worried about the chores not getting done. I came across Philips Handyman Services originally needing some small repairs and saw that he also offer maid services. So I gave him a call and he was very knowledgeable on the repairs I needed and also informed me that he could get the house back neat and clean again. He and his wife came through and did an amazing job for a very reasonable price. My wife was very pleased with what all had gotten accomplished while she was laid up in bed. I can't say enough about how grateful I was during a very stressful time in my life."

Holiday Decorating questions, answered by experts

First of all, don’t shop for bargain lights—often, you’ll end up with a faulty or broken strand, full of dead bulbs or less-than-luminous brightness. Choose quality lights that will last you many years—LED lights have been known to last as long as 100,000 hours. Second, plan ahead and purchase lights for next year’s Christmas during this year’s post-holiday sales. Finally, have a vision and a plan—if you know the measurements of your home, including any windows, doors, and outside bushes you wish to light up, you should be able to only purchase the necessary lights and not more than you need.

Christmas light cords are long, thin, and flexible—which makes them exceptionally prone to tangling. As you try to untangle the very merry mess, the light bulbs and sockets may catch on the cords, making it even harder to pull cords through the knots.

Using a staple gun to hang Christmas lights on your roof or shingles is not recommended. Puncturing your roof with staples can cause damage, leading to cracks, leaks, and exposure to the elements. Staples are also less reliable than other methods like roof clips. For a safer alternative that won't damage your roof, use shingle tabs.

The simplest way to put Christmas lights on any metal surface is by using a magnetic hook or clip. You can also purchase magnetic lights, which should easily stick to any magnetic surface. Keep in mind that not all metals are magnetic. In that case, you’ll need to use a different clip.

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.
