"They arrived early and got right to work. I only asked for one tree to be cut but they noticed that one of my other trees in the front of the house was diseased and would eventually need to come down. I okayed the that to happen for a reasonable fee and they had both trees down within 2 hours. My wife was so impressed that she asked if they could take down three monstrous birch trees that were too close to the house and would shed big branches all over the front yard. The Molina company gave me a very good price since they were already there and didn’t have any other customers to get to. The care and precision they took with removing these trees was very impressive. They climbed up the trees and used rope to lower the large branches that were directly over the roof while never coming close to hitting the house. These guys are experts and I would recommend them to anyone looking for yard work and/or tree removal."

"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."

"My wife and I called J and J Tree Works to remove a MASSIVE eighty feet high Norway Spruce tree from our yard. We live in the village so we thought that it would be very difficult to remove between houses.....well it might have been difficult for any other tree removal service, but not for J and J! They came with a very professional crew and had the tree taken down and removed safely in only TWO hours! Those guys are incredible! We will certainly be using them in the future on other properties that we have! We highly recommend J and J Tree Works! When you use them you will not be disappointed!"

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