Q: 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&rsquo;ll last you for many holidays to come&mdash;far longer than your basic halogen bulbs. Along with that, they also save you big on energy costs throughout the season.</p></div>

Q: Is it worth fixing Christmas lights?

• <div><p>Repairing a strand of Christmas lights will save you a few dollars and the hassle of going to the store to purchase new ones. That may or may not be enough to make fixing them worth it to you. However, if the lights are already hanging or around the tree, removing and replacing them is far more time-consuming than performing a quick repair job. </p></div>

Q: What type of Christmas lights will my professional install?

• <div><p>There are many <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-of-christmas-lights.htm">types of Christmas lights</a> to choose from when working with a light installer. The main types available for outdoor lighting are dome, LED, incandescent, and C9, and your lighting professional&rsquo;s choice will depend on the location and overall design. </p><p>C9 lighting is typically the most expensive option, ranging from <b>$15 to $70 per 25-foot strand</b>. These usually have fewer bulbs per strand, so you might need more than expected to cover a large area. Dome lighting is usually the most cost-effective option, ranging from <b>$6 to $15</b> <b>per 25-foot strand</b>. These bulbs are smaller and rounder than other options, creating a softer look. </p></div>

Q: How do you make Christmas lights easy to hang next year?

• <div><p>Take a picture of your house to easily replicate the same design for next year and keep the clips and accessories. When storing your lights, wrap them around cardboard so they don&rsquo;t get tangled. Purchase a ladderless extension pole kit to hang your lights (around <b>$30 to $50</b>) for hard to reach areas.</p></div>

Q: Can you hang lights on soffit?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;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.</p></div>

Junior was great! He immediately should be exactly was I wanted, gave a great price and was efficient. Very personable and communicated every step of the way. He even was able to install before the holidays. They did a great job installing and making sure everything was perfect!

Great work. Thorough, durable prep, beautiful finish: sponge-on color with faux glaze, lovely depth and subtle texture. She understood what we wanted when we didn't know what to call it, and suggested some nice added decorative touches like custom color detailing on a lighting fixture. This was...

Sadly, no response from my messages from them. It was over Christmas Holiday season but hoped to set something up for post holidays. Never heard from them. Was looking into for property tax grievance assistance.

After we sat with Jason, planning our landscape design, he said he would again get back to us with a quote in a few days, and could start work the next week. We heard nothing after a few days, so we emailed him. He said the nursery was closed over the holidays, and he would get back to us when...

My daughter had a clock that she kept on her dinning room wall and it was a decorative but working clock. It wasn't working and Morton's Jewelers had an advertisement and she brought it in to him. I think he hired another vendor to do the work, but that's where we went and he did a nice job....
