"They were quick and professional. They cleaned up after themselves and everything looked GREAT! My only complaint was lack of response to phone messages."

"They do a great job with the windows. Only disappointment was they don't vacuum windowsills before or after they clean. We have lots of trees in our yard and dead gnats on our windowsills. I didn't want those wiped onto the floor so I took off screens and vacuumed windowsills prior to their cleaning, then vacuumed the floor by windows after they left. Their price is very reasonable and the windows look GREAT. I would recommend their services, and will use them again, I'll just prepare ahead of time for their next visit."

"Last spring Shawn washed all of my windows inside and out.  For fall we picked which windows we wanted done outside only and which ones we wanted both inside and outside...the areas we spend the most time in.  He is very flexible and does excellent work!  He also removes and wipes down the screens that we put away for the winter.  I love looking out at the beautiful fall leaves through clean windows and I have recommended him many times."

Holiday Decorating questions, answered by experts

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.

Christmas lights typically do not need to be grounded like electrical circuits in your home do. However, it's crucial to use outdoor outlets equipped with ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs) for added safety. GFCIs can help protect against electrical shocks and are recommended for outdoor electrical connections when using Christmas lights.

Good news, Christmas lovers: you can keep your lights up all year, provided you choose the type. It's critical that you choose holiday lights made for outdoor use, as these can withstand winter weather conditions. In addition, it's best to use LED lights instead of incandescent ones. LED bulbs can withstand temperature shifts and are energy efficient. 

If you are considering leaving your holiday lights up year-round, ask your lighting installer about permanent installation. This project costs around $3,500 but gives you about six to 10 years of LED lights and adds a pleasing aesthetic to your home.

For a 7-foot-tall column, choose a light strand that is at least 32 feet long. You’ll also need to measure the distance from the column to the closest outlet to get outdoor extension cords that are the right length.

Hiring a professional for holiday decorating, especially for hanging lights, is often well worth the investment for several reasons. A key benefit is safety; if you are physically unable to hang lights due to injury, or if your home has multiple stories or other high places that pose a safety hazard, a professional can handle the job securely. They also have the expertise to assess your electrical system to ensure it can handle the load. Hiring a pro is also a great option for homeowners who lack the time or capability to decorate. Professionals can create a stylish, chic, and upscale look that will wow your guests, and they may even save you money on decor. Finally, many holiday lighting experts include maintenance and repairs as part of their rates, ensuring your display looks great throughout the season without any extra effort on your part.
