"I could not be happier with the final product! The first pic is the old bathroom from the 60s when the house was built. The rest are the final rebuild and it looks great. I would highly recommend VMK Remodeling for any project that you might have. I am also going to get a bid on redoing the deck on the back of the house as Vince's company does decks as well! Thanks to his great crew as well, great people to work with."

"Jeff Mitchell Lighting was the worst vendor we have ever used for our Home. His team installed lighting and when one existing light fixture went out he tried to charge us over $300.00 to fix when in reality it was just a blub out. $24.00 to replace. I was furious. Then he showed up at 11:13 pm without telling us he was coming "to do us a favor and fix the bulb" Are you joking!! This man ranted and raved uncontrollably when confronted. I had to ask him to leave. Do not use him. Trust me I wish we had not."

"Wall 2 Wall was very prompt in responding to my inquiry and scheduling an appointment. I was not home for the siding wash and gutter cleaning, but they were very rushed during the window cleaning and there were portions in the corners of our upstairs windows that were missed. They were otherwise professional and prompt, but considering I paid more than what other companies were quoting, I was expecting the absolute best. Also, they left our fence wide open - we should have known to check first, but our dogs got loose. This may seem like a silly complaint but other home service companies we’ve used have always put everything back as we left them. Overall, it’s a better job than we could have done ourselves, but I feel like the $600+ price tag was overpriced for the quality we received."

FAQs for holiday lighting add or remove projects in Millstadt, IL

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.
