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’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 I keep my icicle lights from tangling in the wind?

• <div><p>No one has figured out a perfect solution to this problem. Tying icicle lights down or adding weights to them can help, but it&rsquo;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.</p></div>

Q: How do you synchronize Christmas lights to music?

• <div><p>Several Christmas light software options, like Vixen, LOR, xLights, Animated Lights, and Light-O-Rama, allow you to sync music to your Christmas light show right at home. All you need is a computer, the software, and a controller that connects to your laptop. Depending on your technical skills, you should choose more beginner-friendly software like Animated Lights or Vixen. </p></div>

Q: How much does professional Christmas light installation cost?

• <div><p>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-christmas-light-installation-cost.htm#cost-factors">cost of professional Christmas light installation</a> is <b>$430</b> on average, but it can range from <b>$100</b> for basic projectors to <b>$1,200</b> or more for an extensive holiday light installation. The overall price also depends on the size of your home and any other location where you&rsquo;ll be adding lighting. For instance, a small, one-story home typically costs between <b>$250 and $600</b> for light installation, but a 4,000-foot multi-story home costs significantly more, ranging from <b>$500 to $1,800</b>. </p></div>

Q: How much do replacement Christmas blinker lights cost?

• <div><p>Blinker lights come with a standard box of Christmas lights, so you don&rsquo;t need to pay extra for them unless you&rsquo;ve misplaced the ones from the original box. You can buy replacement Christmas blinker lights for about $8 per box. If you want to plan for future holidays, you can buy a value box of 24 replacement blinker bulbs for about $12. Also called flasher lights, the replacement bulbs often come in packages of six bulbs.</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.

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....
