Q: When should I consider installing my own holiday decorations?

• <div><p>If you only need strands in safe and easy-to-reach locations and are sure of your electrical system, you can probably purchase and install lights yourself. To do this, carefully test your outlets to ensure there aren&rsquo;t any sparks or other concerning issues. Your budget might also influence this decision, as going the DIY route can be significantly cheaper.</p></div>

Q: How do you attach Christmas lights to palm trees?

• <div><p>You can attach Christmas lights to your palm tree by securely wrapping the strings around the tree. If you notice the strands slipping, you can also use a staple gun to secure them to the trunk.</p></div>

Q: Can you hang lights on eaves?

• <div><p>Yes, if your roof is in stable condition, you should be able to hang Christmas lights from the eaves. Hang Christmas light directly from the eaves for best results, using light clips or an alternative type of adhesive. When installing lights on your eaves, be sure to work carefully and avoid adding too much weight or pressure to them.</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>

Q: Does light installation include taking down Christmas lights?

• <div><p>Most contractors will include removal of your lights in the price of installation, but it&rsquo;s always a good idea to double check. Storage of the lights is often also part of the package when you hire an installation professional, since you might choose to use the same lights for several years.</p></div>

"My husband and I moved into a home last fall here in Murrells Inlet. There are many windows which is great, but would have been a lot for us to clean. We contacted Window Genie. They did all of our windows inside and out as well as the screens in about two and a half hours. Alicia, Jake and Richard were the cleaners. They were terrific! They were professional, thorough, and left our home in the manner in which they found it. We were very pleased and will look to have them back again next year."

Customers say: Quick response

"Tom and Rex are great and I would recommend them without any reservations. Tom and Rex rescued us after a very bad experience with another â contractor.â They are professional, polite, and deliver great work. Tom and Rex removed and reinstalled all the trim throughout the home fixing the serious problems left by the prior individual. Rehung all the doors. Made certain all was plumb and square. Their trim work is beautiful. Tom crafted custom vanities and a banquet sitting area. Beautiful work. Rex reworked the Sheetrock and finished it beautifully. Tom built custom drawers for under the banquet and vanities. Beautiful work and soft close drawers. I am happy to speak with anyone about their work. I would not hesitate to hire them for future projects. My cell is 336 6241648. Jim"
