What does it mean if half my string of lights is flashing?

• <div><p>The most likely cause of accidentally flashing lights is that a regular bulb has been replaced with a flash bulb by accident. If that’s not the case, you should look for a bulb on the strand that is not quite seated properly and will lose its connection when it’s touched or moved.</p></div>

Q: Is it OK to hang Christmas lights from gutters?

• <div><p>It's safe to hang Christmas lights from gutters with a few considerations. First, when installing the lights, follow safe ladder-use guidelines and avoid getting onto the roof. Second, for best results and the integrity of your lights, use clips to keep the bulbs away from inside the gutters where they could run into trouble with water or ice. </p></div>

Q: Can I use duct tape to hang Christmas lights?

• <div><p>Technically, you can use duct tape to hang Christmas lights, but it&rsquo;s not the best bet. Duct tape or other types of tape retain moisture, which isn&rsquo;t ideal when near an electrical wire. Plus, it can peel off due to the elements. Duct tape is also a very unattractive option, visually speaking. Instead, opt for roof clips for Christmas lights, which are affordable and easy to use.</p></div>

Q: Can I install holiday lights myself?

• <div><p>DIY is possible, but professional installation ensures safety and a polished appearance, especially for large or high displays.</p></div>

Q: How many feet of lights do you need to wrap a column?

• <div><p>For a 7-foot-tall column, choose a light strand that is at least 32 feet long. You&rsquo;ll also need to measure the distance from the column to the closest outlet to get outdoor extension cords that are the right length.</p></div>

Steve was knowledgeable about what needed to be done. Old tile and water-damaged walls were removed down to studs, new drywall with vapor barrier was installed, and walls were newly tiled. Steve works at a slow, methodical pace, but he did a very nice job with the mudding and tiling, including a...

Project went well - ramps are effective and functional, meld into the existing decor seamlessly. Returned quickly to install bar above ramp to provide additional stability. Grab bars in bath allow my spouse to remain at home. It went very well!

I stumbled on to Paul's Auto after I noticed a loud noise and discovered my car's exhaust pipes were dragging on the ground. Someone gave me a tip to try Paul's and he soldered a broken pipe together the next morning for a pittance of what I am sure any other shop would have charged. Most...
