How can I save money on Christmas lights?

• <div><p>First of all, don’t shop for bargain lights—often, you’ll end up with a faulty or broken strand, full of dead bulbs or less-than-luminous brightness. Choose quality lights that will last you many years—LED lights have been known to last as long as 100,000 hours. Second, plan ahead and purchase lights for next year’s Christmas during this year’s post-holiday sales. Finally, have a vision and a plan—if you know the measurements of your home, including any windows, doors, and outside bushes you wish to light up, you should be able to only purchase the necessary lights and not more than you need.</p></div>

Q: Are LED Christmas lights safe to leave up all year?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;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&rsquo;re rated for, bring them inside after Christmas is over. </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 I install holiday lights myself?

• <div><p>DIY is possible, but professional installation ensures safety and a polished appearance, especially for large or high displays.</p></div>

Q: Should you hang Christmas lights on gutters or shingles?

• <div><p>You can choose to hang Christmas lights on either gutters or shingles&mdash;either option is fine. If you have gutter covers, shingles may be your only option. But, all-in-one clips are designed for both applications.</p></div>

We had a short circuit in the outdoor wiring. Our neighbor recommended Autuori, and they came out the next day. Anthony and his son John figured it out and got us back in business just before the Thanksgiving holiday, which was great.

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!

Emailed Reed P&H late Tuesday night. He responded right away, and plan was made for me to pick up a faucet and for him to come at 10:00 a.m. the Weds before Thanksgiving. All went like clockwork. We had a new faucet and the holiday was saved. While he was here, he also replaced a broken...

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....

We selected tile with inserts and a decorative bottom. It took me weeks to pick it out and Joy was just lovely. At first I thought I had my tile picked out. But them when I got it I hated it. Just took it back. And we started again. No pressure, just help in finding what I wanted. I was there...
