"They are the best I had some odd jobs from yard work to painting trim to organization and they came out and did all the odd jobs I was neglecting and putting off. They were so fair and kind to me as well. And for a seed bonus I also have bigger projects now like a kitchen back splash and new door I need installed and they told me they can also do certain things not listed on the site so they wear many hats. It’s very hard to find a good contractor / handyman that you can call on the fly it takes months for them to get back to me but not these guys they are very reliable . Now I have my go to handyman service that’s local . Try them out if you have work you won’t be disappointed. I’m a happy customer not enough stars ⭐️ on here to rate their service above and beyond !"

Holiday Decorating questions, answered by experts

There are many types of Christmas lights 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. 

C9 lighting is typically the most expensive option, ranging from $15 to $70 per 25-foot strand. 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 $6 to $15 per 25-foot strand. These bulbs are smaller and rounder than other options, creating a softer look.

Professionals use the same methods found in this guide unless they’re decorating a particularly large Christmas tree. In that case, they may also make use of tools like extension poles to get the job done. 

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

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. 

During the holidays, big box hardware stores sell many kinds of clips and hooks made specifically for hanging Christmas lights—including ridge clips, gutter clips, shingle clips, and mounted hooks. It’s best to avoid nails, staples, and screws since they can damage your roof.
