"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."

"Work was performed. No consideration or respect for home. Didn't forewarn me before creating a huge mess of wood shavings and other debri from working up in ceiling. He could have given me the chance to spread plastic but didn't. I have all new carpet, the dust, wood chips, ceiling material and pieces of insulation were all over everything. The company itself provided good service as far as contacting me right away and setting up the appointment I needed. Just didn't care for the attitude of the electrician or the mess he left. I paid $160 for two hours, pretty pricey for a sarcastic attitude and a mess. He did install the four hall lights as I wanted. But, I went upstairs to check progress on the two hall lights being installed and he had just finished installing the one in the picture and as you can see he installed it offset from the opening from the old recessed light stating that there wasn't enough length of wire left by original electrician (1975). Well, I can understand that, but isn't that something you determine before you move forward and install a light and leave a big hole in one's ceiling???? When I saw it, he was rude and said "you wanted the light installed, I guess you have some drywall repair to do" One more thing. I have 3 small dogs, and I had to constantly follow behind him and close the man door to the garage as he was going in and out and kept leaving it open!!!! The automatic garage door was up so he had access to his truck. Again, no respect. The more I think about it the madder I get, so I will just stop."

"They came sooner than they were supposed to. They were thorough and did a good job on the windows. They were fast and they didn't leave a mess behind. Their prices were competitive with everybody else. I will absolutely use them again."

FAQs for holiday lighting add or remove projects in Empire, NV

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.
