I am a retired accountant who is very handy and loves to help people. I have experience with plumbing repair (sinks, toilets, disposals, faucets), electrical upgrades (replace lighting, switches, appliances, smoke detector installation), underground sprinkling repairs, technology help (computers, smart TVs), minor car repairs (code reading, battery replacement, second opinion on repairs needed), gutter and downspout cleaning or repair. I can help you assemble new furniture or assist with other projects as needed.

"Josh was totally professional, with detailed contractual description and a fair assessment of the supplies needed and the time required to finish the job. He was always here when he said he would be and went the extra mile in every way. I couldn't have been happier with the screened porch painting and screen replacement; I went on to hire him for other projects as well, and he did a great job."

Holiday Decorating questions, answered by experts

The average cost to have a professional install Christmas lights on a roof is about $420, with most homeowners spending between $220 and $650. Some companies may charge between $1.25 and $3 per square foot, excluding the cost of the lights. For extensive or complex jobs, the cost can exceed $1,000. While doing it yourself can save money, it is only recommended if you are comfortable working at heights.

How many string lights can be on one outlet depends on a number of varying factors, including the total wattage of your circuit, the type of lights, the energy needs of the lights, and cord specifications. It’s better to play it safe here to protect your circuit, so figure out the max wattage of your circuit, compare that to the lights, and move on from there. Generally speaking, LED string lights require less energy than incandescent bulbs, translating to a higher number of lights per circuit. 

Yes, you can hang Christmas lights from the soffit of your roof, but it requires a bit more effort than hanging from the gutters or eaves. You’ll need to add an adhesive hook or tie to the underside of the soffit to keep the lights in place. Consider adding a soffit hook every 12 to 18 inches for best visual results.

During the holidays, big box hardware stores sell many kinds of clips and hooks made specifically for hanging Christmas lights—including ridge clips, gutter clips, shingle clips, and mounted hooks. It’s best to avoid nails, staples, and screws since they can damage your roof.

Yes, you must use an extension cord specifically rated for outdoor use to power outdoor lights, such as Christmas lights. Extension cords intended for indoor use lack the protective properties to withstand exposure to outdoor elements. To safely hang and power lights outside your house or in your yard, always connect them to an outdoor power source using an outdoor-rated extension cord.
