"Lowell the owner of Christmas Light Hanging, did an excellent job on hanging Christmas lights on our home.  I contacted him through Angie's List and told him this is a home we own (we currently live in Chicago), but my mother who is 83 years old is living in the house in Vista.  I wanted her to enjoy the holiday season and thought hanging lights on the outside of the house would be a nice way. <br /> Lowell totally understood and was very willing to work with me on this idea.  First, he came out to the house to see exactly what he would need.  I told him, the house is not very big, and I only wanted lights on the front and side of the house (which faces the street).  He said it was not a problem, and that he would provide everything needed for the job (lights, clips, extension cords etc.).  He came back about a week later and did a beautiful job on hanging the lights.  My mother was so pleased with the work and she really enjoyed having the house look so special for the holiday season. <br /> After the work was done, Lowell even emailed me pictures of the house, which I greatly appreciated! <br /> From my experience with working with Lowell, I can tell he is a very honest and kind person, who is willing to work hard to get the job done.  He kept in contact with me throughout the job.  I would highly recommend using Lowell for hanging your Christmas lights.  I know there are other companies that do the same thing, but when you have someone who is willing to go the extra mile for you (especially since we don't live in CA), I think that speaks volumes of the person you are hiring. <br />"

"They came on the correct day and did the work.  Once they arrived, they called me to say the cost would be an extra $50 because of the square footage.  they were previously cleaned by another company for $100.00.  They left several patches of wet leaves from the gutters on the lawn. <br />"

"I first contacted Rox to get assistance with a party I was planning as a surprise for my husband. It was a mid week thing and I work all day so I could not get out to pick up food, party supplies, etc myself. While Rox was unavailable she referred me to her assistant Heather who was AWESOME!!! Heather was very personable on the phone and detail oriented. I sent her an email outlining everything that needed to be done but when she hadn't heard from me in a day, she called me back to follow up. Turned out I had the wrong email address for her!!! Was SO happy she followed up. <br /> Heather picked up food in Point Loma, party supplies off Black Mountain and delivered everything to the PQ. Everything was on time and went off without a hitch. <br /> When my husband learned that I had hired someone to help run the errands he was thrilled! <br /> We will definitely be using Heather and/or Rox again!"

"Leslie's was a real pleasure and easy to work with. She was quick to respond to my initial inquiry. We were easily able to arrange a meeting time to exchange goods. Upon further examination of the purchased curtains, Leslie had some great suggestions that would improve the alterations. The alterations were completed in a timely fashion. We will continue to keep Leslie number in our phone so that we can use her services in the future."

FAQs for holiday lighting add or remove projects in Borrego Springs, CA

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.
