"Immediate response to our inquiry. Reasonably priced and extremely willing to accommodate our needs -willing to make two trips to the residence as we wanted the old water heater pulled one day so that we could access and paint the small utility room prior to installing the new water heater the next morning"

"I cannot say enough great things. Top-notch communication, speedy responses. Arrived on time. With the whole lawn being seeded, weeks later half of the lawn was not growing, while the other half was clearly doing well so they came out (as promised and on time) and assessed the situation and decided to add more seed to the bare part of the lawn - free of charge. They also left the little bit of leftover seed. They wanted to make it right. Would definitely hire again in a heartbeat."

"After some communication miscues and delays in the project, the job was completed well. Frustrations stemmed from appointments made, I left work early to meet them for one of them, and no one showed or called. When the work was finally done, it was a good job."

"I have been in the remodeling industry for most of my adult career and I am 53-year-old woman. I was a general manager for a local home-improvement company for 15 years. I would ve loved to have had Mitch and his helper work for me. From our very first communication with Mitch, all throughout the job, and completion, he was respectful, accurate, and a master craftsman. He did not take the path of least resistance in anyway shape or form. He had a hard time getting the old fence posts out.This was not an easy task. He had to take down and remove a very old fence and work around an oddly shaped configuration. He also had to tie into the neighbors property on three sides. Everyone is delighted with his workmanship. We have him coming back to do a few smaller jobs. And I do believe at least two other families have contracted him for jobs. I cannot say enough about his professionalism, workmanship, and he has a great sense of humor! It was very refreshing experience. Oh and I never once felt like he could not be trusted if I was not home. 5 Stars all the way!"

FAQs for holiday lighting add or remove projects in Baldwinsville, NY

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.
