Best holiday decorators near Hardy, VA

Q: How many feet of lights do you need to wrap a column?

• <div><p>For a 7-foot-tall column, choose a light strand that is at least 32 feet long. You&rsquo;ll also need to measure the distance from the column to the closest outlet to get outdoor extension cords that are the right length.</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 I use both LED and incandescent Christmas lights together?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s not a good idea to mix LED and incandescent Christmas lights if you can avoid it. LEDs and incandescents can have significantly different electrical current needs. This difference can lead to a higher risk of problems and failure for both light strands. When possible, switch all your lights over to one kind or the other for the best results. Do not connect the different types of light strings to each other, and avoid linking them to the same circuit. </p></div>

Q: What order do you decorate a Christmas tree?

• <div><p>You should always hang the lights before the ornaments because hanging lights on top of ornaments can cause some to fall off. If a light sits directly on top of an ornament, it can cause it to heat up and possibly change its color or cause it to crack. </p></div>

Q: How do you hang Christmas lights on a roof peak without a ladder?

• <div><p>If you don&rsquo;t have a ladder, you may be able to use a light-hanging pole. If not, you&rsquo;ll have to rent a bucket lift or other machinery to reach your roof. </p></div>

Kwan & Brittany have done an exquisite job ( as their name says ) they are very respectful and very knowledgeable and thorough. I did not realize how dirty my house was until they started too clean it. I never knew they were going to even move the furniture. Today is my first day using them...

Holiday Decorating FAQs, answered by experts

For a 7-foot-tall column, choose a light strand that is at least 32 feet long. You’ll also need to measure the distance from the column to the closest outlet to get outdoor extension cords that are the right length.

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.

It’s not a good idea to mix LED and incandescent Christmas lights if you can avoid it. LEDs and incandescents can have significantly different electrical current needs. This difference can lead to a higher risk of problems and failure for both light strands. When possible, switch all your lights over to one kind or the other for the best results. Do not connect the different types of light strings to each other, and avoid linking them to the same circuit.

You should always hang the lights before the ornaments because hanging lights on top of ornaments can cause some to fall off. If a light sits directly on top of an ornament, it can cause it to heat up and possibly change its color or cause it to crack.
