My name is Adam I am an electrician I have been in the field over 5 years full time. I learned electrical out of high school and worked for the local IBEW Union. After moving around with my spouse who was Career Air Force I ended up back where we grew up doing electrical work for a couple places. My current job is not providing full time work so I'm looking to move to a different company

"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."

"I contacted Katie prior to moving to Lexington from out-of-state for assistance in some pre-moving chores.  I was facing an eight hour drive with two very unhappy cats and needed to have their litter boxes, food and water ready for them at our new home the minute they got out of the car.  I came to Lexington to look for an apartment a few weeks ahead of the move with all of their goodies (and some essentials for me as well.)   Katie met me at my hotel and loaded all of our stuff into her car and even took me to Petsmart to buy a cat tree.  She kept our things in her garage until the day prior to the move.  Although Katie herself was unavailable that day, she arranged to have an assistant deliver the items to our new home.  When I - and two utterably miserable cats - arrived the next evening, not only had the stuff been delivered, but I found the litter boxes set up, the shower curtain hung, my coffee pot plugged in (Oh, thank you for that!), and food in the cupboard.  By bedtime, both cats were right at home.  Katie's services made the move so much easier for me.  She is also loads of fun and a font of knowledge about Lexington, which was very helpful to a new resident.  I'll not hesitate to call upon Katie again when the need arises.  <br />"

FAQs for holiday lighting add or remove projects in Murray, KY

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.
