"The laborers ranged from professional to very unprofessional - foul language, left lunch garbage, loud music, dangerous debris (wood with nails, piles, etc). A few were actually very nice. The initial phase of work was OK. Fixed a couple of errors promptly - first, they were required to install a perimeter foundation on a patio and had intended to not do that, but instead do an on-grade pour - the other was a measurement issue that was not their fault. The concrete finish work was done without homeowners required input (per contract), resulting in a finish that was vastly different from what homeowner wanted. Homeowners were around all day with the laborer and no input was sought. The company provided a fix by putting a top coat on the slab - I am hoping this will have acceptable longevity. Workers left considerable concrete dust, surface coloring dust and debris splashed on the house siding and door. The last phase was for stone veneer work. Company had considerable existing examples on the home as to what was needed. The work completed for this phase was by any standard, horrible. The work was viewed (and approved) by the Contractor daily. Many stones were not level, poorly arranged, many large gaps exposing the underlying concrete block, mortar squished in haphazardly with fingers, many veneer stones broken irregularly in many places and squashed into voids. This work had to be entirely demolished and rebuilt by another employee who was very good. Every stone removed. My experience was that the Contractor had to be "forced" to do reasonable quality - just plain reasonable, not professional or "good". Contractor was indeed polite and fixed the problems during a lengthy and frustrating process, though I personally had to watch the whole process and stop Contractor and demand that the errors be corrected. I got the feeling that the Contactor would have take any shortcut (at my expense) had I not been watching."

"I won a Small Claims judgment for the return of my $1200 deposit to Piccoli for a pressure tank job which I immediately canceled, but never received the return of the deposit. There was no dispute that I canceled this job immediately. After a month and a half and 2 letters written to Piccirilli Plumbing I haven’t yet received the return of my $1200. I had contracted Piccirilli for a job to replace my Pressure tank. After giving a $1200 deposit, I Immediately researched the price for the job and found estimates much less.

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