"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."

"Job done was adequate, but not complete per our agreement. I had asked to pressure wash a brick patio and replace the 3 timbers that bordered the patio. They suggested trying to power wash the wood timbers first and see if they could be cleaned. I agreed. After doing the bricks and making a minor try at cleaning the timbers, I heard them packing up. Then they texted me from inside the truck about how I wanted to pay. I came outside with my checkbook and saw the timbers were partially cleaned, but still mostly dark green. I called the one guy over and asked why the timbers weren't finished, and they hurried and got a broom and some solution to quickly clean them, instead of power washing them like we agreed on. They left, I think, with never intending to discuss replacing the timbers, but rather get in the truck and get away quickly. It seems they never had any intention of replacing the timbers, but just taking the power washing job. I hired them to do both things, and if the timbers didn't clean up well, then we would replace them. There was little to no communication. They were polite. Not rude. But, they never said these timbers can't be cleaned, and further discussed getting the timbers replaced. They just seemed to want to do the bricks and get going. I think they should have said we don't do that kind of work, but we can try to clean them for you. Again, poor communication. So for that reason, I would not feel confident in recommending them unfortunately."

FAQs for holiday lighting add or remove projects in Boardman, OH

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.
