"Alex & his team did an outstanding job on clearing the snow at my mother in laws home in N.Massapequa. The communication was excellent, very professional, and had the work done the same day. A very fair price for the amount of work they did after Fern did her damage. Would certainly hire again & suggest you do the same. Thanks again Alex. Steve in Levittown"

"Working with Scott was the personal experience I needed. The soft and respectful approach to our property that has been in our family for generations was exactly what we hoped for. We are most pleased to show you. Just schedule it with Scott, don’t drive in, walk in at sundown. 😊"

Customers say: Quick response

"I was very happy with the gentlemen who did my installations my only reccomendation is try to be more communicative with your clients because my appt was for 12pm and the service did not arrive until 6pm and i was not notified of the delay until 2pm. Luckily i had nothing but time my job was still able to get completed. I’m also very appreciative for the squeeze because my job was last minute. The service was great."

FAQs for holiday lighting add or remove projects in Jamaica, 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.
