"He drew it and took pics of himself doing it otherwise we wouldn't believe even drew it. It looks like a photograph. We've never seen anything like it. He's amazing. He has also hand drawn pictures of my wedding and of my grand father for his funeral service."

"The initial meeting with the owner went well; he got back to us promptly with a price quote, and we agreed to it.  We paid 1/3 of the cost right away.  They started a week or so later than we planned, and the job went on for a couple of weeks, due to equipment repairs and other jobs.  But they did the work that was specified and moved some logs at our request; my husband said the workers were very nice, and they did a good job.  I held back $100 of the final payment for some additional pruning of two shrubs, which the project manager promised he would do the next week.  He didn't come back, so I contacted him and he apologized and said he would do it.  But the following week, I pruned the shrubs myself. <br />"

"I presented quite a quandary of challenges.  I had an old building, recently renovated, with single pane display windows that brought in great light, but great inefficiency.  It was to be a storefront display.  Very large, beautifully problematic.  Amy Parker presented me with options and original ideas.   I wanted to maintain the character, have the ability to enjoy the windows themselves without closing them off and leaving me literally in the dark.  Be functional.  Be more efficient. Be fun.  Be unique.  No small task.  This challenge is one that I had spoken to many people about, along with myself constantly trying to figure out ways to solve all my needs.  Well, Amy came in and listened intently, and seemed to completely understand.  She presented me within a short period of time, 3 ideas.  They were indeed fun, unique and functional.  We picked one together, tweaked it even more and in the end, the results were fantastic.  She also did some other work within this space, equally fun results, but the biggest challenge was my store front windows. <br /> <br /> Amy listened to my needs, she came up with the ideas, presented them in a timely manner, worked with me in all areas of carrying out the chosen design.  She made the whole process seamless.  Stressless.  Very professional along with personable.  <br /> <br /> The cost of her time, ideas, service was something you cannot really put a price on, but I can in a way, she saved me money.  Without a doubt, due to her ingenuity.  "

FAQs for holiday lighting add or remove projects in Alton Bay, NH

If climbing ladders or handling wiring isn’t in your comfort zone, hire a pro. Look for installers who post clear per-foot or hourly rates, carry insurance, and have solid reviews. Comparing at least three quotes helps you spot fair pricing without sacrificing safety. Skipping credentials to save a few dollars can cost you far more in repairs, so pick a qualified team and enjoy a safe, eye-catching display.

Yes, booking between February and September often scores lower rates because demand is light and pros have open calendars. You might even negotiate a discount package that includes removal or storage. If the budget is tight, ask whether a handyperson or an off-season permanent-light install makes sense for your home and timeline.

Determining the number of holiday lights for your house depends on your home’s size and specific decorative vision. Your project requires 10 to 20 light strands for a basic exterior display, with 100 lights allocated for eaves and an additional 10 to 20 bulbs for each awning. 

For trees and substantial shrubs, allocate five to 10 strands per unit to achieve complete and balanced illumination across your property.

Tipping isn’t mandatory, but it’s a nice way to thank your installer for a job well done. Most homeowners offer 10% to 20% of the total bill or round up to an even figure if the crew exceeds expectations. A small extra goes a long way toward showing appreciation—and may help you snag priority booking next season.

Yes, you can install holiday lights yourself if your property layout is straightforward and your electrical system is secure. Homeowners who are confident in their ability to safely handle wiring and use proper equipment can save money with a DIY approach. 

However, it is crucial to test all outlets thoroughly and secure the proper ladders and safety gear before starting. Careful planning and adherence to safety guidelines are essential to protect yourself and your home while achieving an attractive display.

Start by clearing the area of loose debris, damaged shingles, and anything that could trip you up. Test outdoor outlets and, if you’re unsure, bring in an electrician. Use a sturdy extension ladder (or scaffolding for very high spots) and never work alone—having a helper steady the ladder is non-negotiable. Taking these simple steps keeps you, your roof, and your new lights safe.
