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: How long do Christmas lights last?

• <div><p>While Christmas lights are a wonderful way to light up your home during the holiday season, they don&rsquo;t have a long lifespan. Most incandescent Christmas light bulbs are designed to last between 1,000 and 1,500 hours&mdash;or about one to three holiday seasons. More durable LED bulbs should last about 10 times as long. </p></div>

Q: How can you tell which Christmas light is burned without a tester?

• <div><p>If you need to visually inspect your Christmas lights to determine which are good and which need replacement, there are a few things to look for. First, look for discoloration, such as a dark spot or two on the inside of the glass. The spot is an indication of a burnt filament. Also, look for missing filaments, cracked bulb glass, and broken sockets.</p></div>

Q: Can you put Christmas lights on metal?

• <div><p>The simplest way to put Christmas lights on any metal surface is by using a magnetic hook or clip. You can also purchase magnetic lights, which should easily stick to any magnetic surface. Keep in mind that not all metals are magnetic. In that case, you&rsquo;ll need to use a different clip.</p></div>

Q: 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&rsquo;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>

A great job! We had (2) pieces of flagstone left over from our backyard project. I picked up (2) wine racks from Goodwill on Fairbanks and they attached them as table tops to complete this small project. Excellent work and they look perfect.
