"We hired this company to hang Christmas lights on our home. Clint was friendly, offered a reasonable price, and was professional. He went above and beyond when coming back out to finish up work that was halted due to a faulty string of lights, which he didn’t have to do. He was very responsive, even on weekends. Thank you!!"

"Most professional and reliable landscapers in town. They start by doing the spring turn up for me and then mow my yard weekly. If there are any issues with my yard they point them out to me and make suggestions like if I need to water more often. They do the Autumn blowouts for me as well before winter and then I am going to have them do snow removal as well. Everyone is really nice and very professional. Thank you !!"

"These guys were awesome. They called immediately, showed up on the date and at the time scheduled. They were very clean inside and I noticed they removed their shoes before stepping on carpet. They removed all of the screens and the windows look amazing. THANK YOU I See U!!"

"It went very well. I contacted this artist to create a stunning and lifelike self portrait. I then sent photos and payment. In less than a week I had a stunning rendition of myself in both pencil and watercolor. Lance is always courteous and professional. I highly recommend his services to everyone and will do business with him again soon!"

"I found this companyt called The Clean Up Crew on a Craigslist posting of all places. I called the number shown and spoke to a very nice young man named Erik. He immediately came by to give me an estimate on some yard work and some interior painting I needed very badly. He admitted he was no expert at painting but would promise he would do his very best. It took him about 2 weeks to do all the painting I needed inside the house and even hauled away some extra trash and garbage for me when he didn't have to on top of what we agreed upon. He also continues to do outside landscaping work for me throughout this summer season and I will be using him for snow removal this winter. For the experience he has in all aspects I used him for I am so thrilled with his work and performance. I would highly reccomend Erik and The Clean Up Crew to anyone who needs almost anything done. If he does not know how to do it he will get you someone who does.Dan Brabham"

FAQs for holiday lighting add or remove projects in Columbia Falls, MT

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.
