"Jonathan Bales is one of the nicest, most accommodating workers we've ever hired. He listened to what we wanted and asked questions to make sure he understood. He was on time and worked till the job was finished, not just done, but done well, to his own high standards. The job was to paint the inside and outside of our french-style front door. There were several layers of paint to sand off before applying the new paint. The doors also had a few spots that needed repairs. He did the whole job on 2 day's time. The color is a beautiful shade of dark blue, and it is beautiful. We were very happy with his work, and especially with his prices."

Holiday Decorating questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can hang Christmas lights from the soffit of your roof, but it requires a bit more effort than hanging from the gutters or eaves. You’ll need to add an adhesive hook or tie to the underside of the soffit to keep the lights in place. Consider adding a soffit hook every 12 to 18 inches for best visual results.

The average cost to have a professional install Christmas lights on a roof is about $420, with most homeowners spending between $220 and $650. Some companies may charge between $1.25 and $3 per square foot, excluding the cost of the lights. For extensive or complex jobs, the cost can exceed $1,000. While doing it yourself can save money, it is only recommended if you are comfortable working at heights.

The most likely cause of accidentally flashing lights is that a regular bulb has been replaced with a flash bulb by accident. If that’s not the case, you should look for a bulb on the strand that is not quite seated properly and will lose its connection when it’s touched or moved.

Several options for hanging Christmas lights won't damage gutters. Using shingle clips avoids any hardware contact with them, and using plastic gutter clips minimizes the likelihood of scratching gutters. Remember not to rest a ladder, especially a metal one, against the gutters, and use a ladder stand-off device or stabilizer if you need to use an extension ladder. 

Yes, many services include removal as part of the package. Confirm with your provider.
