What are the best types of Christmas lights for a roof?

• <div><p>When it comes to bang for your buck, LED lights are the clear winner for Christmas lights. While these will cost more upfront, they’ll last you for many holidays to come—far longer than your basic halogen bulbs. Along with that, they also save you big on energy costs throughout the season.</p></div>

Can I replace incandescent bulbs with LED bulbs on a light string?

• <div><p>No, you shouldn’t insert an LED light into an incandescent socket. It usually won’t fit anyway, but in the unlikely chance that it does, its electrical demands are too different for it to work properly. </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: How do professionals put lights on a Christmas tree?

• <div><p>Professionals use the same methods found in this guide unless they&rsquo;re decorating a particularly large Christmas tree. In that case, they may also make use of tools like extension poles to get the job done. </p></div>

Q: What order do you decorate a Christmas tree?

• <div><p>You should always hang the lights before the ornaments because hanging lights on top of ornaments can cause some to fall off. If a light sits directly on top of an ornament, it can cause it to heat up and possibly change its color or cause it to crack. </p></div>

Ended up with a major repair of sewer line. They completed the job in 1 day and left everything very neat for having to dig up the yard. The service was quick especially during the holiday season.

I called on a Saturday afternoon of a holiday weekend ( 12/30/2017) and they were able to diagnose and fix my clothes dryer that afternoon. I was very happy with their responsiveness. Other appliance repair companies couldn't come out until Tuesday as it was the New Year's weekend.

They were referred to us by Orkin Pest Control because what we had was a raccoon. Even though Orkin is a pest control, it doesn't deal with wildlife so they referred me to their sister company which is also a subsidiary of theirs and that was Critter Control. Because of the holiday weekend, we...

Initially we selected Tailor Made to replace a few leaky windows in our 20 year old house. First we invited a salesman from one of the big window companies, but we were unhappy with the pressure sales techniques and lack of personal attention. We went with Tailor Made because of their long...

We chose Genisys Credit Union after my husband and I got married. They have been incredibly friendly and helpful every time I need to speak with anyone. There are a lot of fee-free ATMS in Metro Detroit as well. The only small issues that I've had to get used to (after moving away from a big...
