"I seldomly leave reviews unless I think they are beyond deserved, and this one is deserved! I purchased a home and have never been a fan of designing/decorating. I went from despising decorating to laughing and enjoying it with the help of Colette. She is lighthearted, not pushy and takes pride in her work. She found some extremely unique pieces of decor for my home that wow everyone who sees them. Her pricing is extremely fair as well, 10/10 would recommend."

"Chris, the lead technician has been an excellent contact, he listens carefully and is good at making practical recommendations. Ours was a big irrigation and lighting job - almost commercial scale - and they handled it comfortably. Would have given five stars if they could have started earlier, but I appreciate that covid has made some challenges for getting and retaining enough staff."

"We did an 8 month project with Joanne redoing almost our entire house. She was there with interior design as well as interior decorating guidance the entire time. Her insight was invaluable to our successful project. She listened and saw what we liked and followed our tastes instead of forcing a taste on us. At the sometime, she challenged us to step outside the box sometime creating a fabulously designed and decorated home that we love."

"During our initial meeting, Paul was very personable and offered outstanding recommendations for our landscaping needs, covering plantings, lighting, drainage, and modifications to our existing sprinkler system. Paul and his team were punctual, professional, and a pleasure to work with. We are extremely satisfied with the quality of their work and have decided to hire OCR, Inc again for our front yard landscaping project."

Lighting questions, answered by experts

You can take a few steps to prolong the life of your holiday lights. Make sure to replace burnt-out bulbs as quickly as possible to avoid overloading the rest of the circuit and knocking out more lights. Before packing them up each year, plug each strand into the wall to confirm everything is still working. Wrap the lights carefully back into their original packaging or something similar—winding a strand tightly together or leaving it to hang loose in a storage bin can lead to frayed or damaged wiring. 

No, you should not leave LED Christmas lights up all year. While the LED lights themselves are very durable, their wiring and casings can be as vulnerable as any Christmas lights. They’re subject to drying out, experiencing cold or sun damage that causes them to crack, and even damage caused by gnawing pests. (The same is true of incandescents.) If you want your lights to last the years that they’re rated for, bring them inside after Christmas is over. 

One possibility is that they aren’t getting enough sunlight during the day, which could be due to a lack of sunshine in your area or trees blocking the solar panel. Alternatively, if the solar panel is dirty or the batteries are dying, your solar lights might not operate at full brightness.

Modern outdoor light fixtures are waterproof and weather resistant, and, provided they’re installed correctly and by a professional, the fixture and wiring can last for 20 to 30 years or more. The lifespan will depend largely on the quality of the fixture. The lifespan of the bulb will depend on the type of light you install:

  • CFL bulb (for sustained use): 15,000 hours

  • Halogen bulb (mostly for security): 2,000 hours

  • HID bulbs (for security): 12,000 hours

  • Incandescent bulb: 1,000 hours

  • LED bulb: 50,000 hours

The majority of potential burglars are amateurs looking to make a quick buck after breaking and entering. By installing motion-sensor lights, alarm systems, and security cameras, throughout the home, there’s a good chance you will deter crime on your property.
