Q: Is there an easy way to test Christmas lights?

• <div><p>Testing tools, such as Christmas light testers, non-contact proximity electrical testers, and multimeters, all simplify the process of testing Christmas lights. However, without one or more of those tools, testing Christmas lights the old-fashioned way only works sometimes. Without testing tools, the simplest testing method is visual inspection, which may or may not yield positive results. </p></div>

Q: How long do outdoor lights last?

Tony and his team are top notch professionals who do quality work at a reasonable price. I may have had both jobs performed for less, however I would have had to look over my shoulder constantly. With Tony’s team, I never worried.
