"Hello my name is Michelle, and there is many words I could use to say about the experience I had received from the good Earth cleaning and property services. They showed up on time even 15 minutes before their arrival time was supposed to be. and when introducing their selfs they held theirselves to a high standard of saying that they're cleaning business is the best around. Every inch of my home when their service was done was spotless and clean I never once had to make them redo anything. And most of all the respect that they give you of not being judgmental of how other people's homes look. And the prices are very reasonable and they are more than willing to work with you if you are unable to do a certain price. I would have to say that I recommend this cleaning and property service business to any of my friends and family."

Holiday Decorating questions, answered by experts

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.

No one has figured out a perfect solution to this problem. Tying icicle lights down or adding weights to them can help, but it’s a very time-consuming process and far from foolproof. If your winters are too windy, we suggest simply switching away from icicle lights to straight runs of non-dangling lights along the edge of your roof.

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. 

Christmas trees need about 100 lights per foot, so you would need 700 lights for a 7-foot tree. 

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.
