What type of Christmas lights will my professional install?

• <div><p>There are many <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-of-christmas-lights.htm">types of Christmas lights</a> to choose from when working with a light installer. The main types available for outdoor lighting are dome, LED, incandescent, and C9, and your lighting professional’s choice will depend on the location and overall design. </p><p>C9 lighting is typically the most expensive option, ranging from <b>$15 to $70 per 25-foot strand</b>. These usually have fewer bulbs per strand, so you might need more than expected to cover a large area. Dome lighting is usually the most cost-effective option, ranging from <b>$6 to $15</b> <b>per 25-foot strand</b>. These bulbs are smaller and rounder than other options, creating a softer look. </p></div>

Q: When should I consider installing my own holiday decorations?

• <div><p>If you only need strands in safe and easy-to-reach locations and are sure of your electrical system, you can probably purchase and install lights yourself. To do this, carefully test your outlets to ensure there aren&rsquo;t any sparks or other concerning issues. Your budget might also influence this decision, as going the DIY route can be significantly cheaper.</p></div>

Q: Can you put Christmas lights on metal?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;ll need to use a different clip.</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: Is it safe to staple Christmas lights to your roof?

• <div><p>While it&rsquo;s a somewhat common method for hanging Christmas lights, using a staple gun is not safe for your roof. Poking any kind of hole can potentially damage your roof and expose it to the elements, whether it&rsquo;s from nails or a staple gun. Shingle tabs are the best way to hang lights on your roof without the damage.</p></div>

The project was to make the bathroom handicapped accessible. None of the fixtures were what I needed or requested. I paid thousands and am left with a shower that is smallest than the original one. They never cleaned their shoes when entering, they left their messes for me to clean, and used...

Marsh River Electrical answered my call on the day after a holiday and promptly came out to assess my electrical problem. Despite being very busy, he prioritized my situation as an emergency loss-of-power.
