Q: Is it safe to fix my own Christmas lights?

• <div><p>Yes, tackling blown fuses and broken light bulbs is definitely safe. Fixing the wiring on a strand of Christmas lights isn&rsquo;t a good idea, though, because of the danger of shock and fire. However, if you don&rsquo;t feel comfortable working with any type of electricity, consider hiring a professional Christmas light installer to manage the job safely and efficiently.</p></div>

Q: How do you attach Christmas lights to palm trees?

• <div><p>You can attach Christmas lights to your palm tree by securely wrapping the strings around the tree. If you notice the strands slipping, you can also use a staple gun to secure them to the trunk.</p></div>

Q: How do I keep my icicle lights from tangling in the wind?

• <div><p>No one has figured out a perfect solution to this problem. Tying icicle lights down or adding weights to them can help, but it&rsquo;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.</p></div>

Q: How much do replacement Christmas blinker lights cost?

• <div><p>Blinker lights come with a standard box of Christmas lights, so you don&rsquo;t need to pay extra for them unless you&rsquo;ve misplaced the ones from the original box. You can buy replacement Christmas blinker lights for about $8 per box. If you want to plan for future holidays, you can buy a value box of 24 replacement blinker bulbs for about $12. Also called flasher lights, the replacement bulbs often come in packages of six bulbs.</p></div>

Q: How can you tell which Christmas light is burned without a tester?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

The company was highly professional and did exceptional work. They were extremely punctual, hardworking and cleaned everything up after themselves. I would highly recommend this company and have already used them twice. And the owner is very responsive and very easy to work with.
