"Edwards Lawn did a great job. I really liked the completed work. They reshaped the flower beds, removed old mulch and added new mulch around the flower beds. They also brought in topsoil and filled in low spots, covered exposed drainage tubes, aerated, and overseeded. It all looks great."

"I had a very positive experience with JCB and will definitely call them in the future when I need help. I wanted to completely change my kitchen but I didn’t want to shoulder the expense of new cabinetry. I spoke to Brandon about my vision (which was to have a rustic, distressed look on my kitchen cabinetry with coordinated accent cabinetry around the kitchen) and he gave me a lot of helpful info on the phone, even before I signed the contract. He came out to my home to show me what they could do, to make sure it was to my liking. His estimate also seemed fair. Once the job started, Brandon and Chris and Joe were kind and communicative, letting me know what they were doing each day and checking in for feedback. Because I wanted a unique, distressed look on my cabinets, they created the look entirely by hand based on my description of what I wanted. It was painstaking and labor-intensive, but they worked efficiently. The entire job was done in a week (they worked through the weekend) and I’m thrilled with the result. They also re-painted my walls, in a color that complimented the new cabinetry, and they replaced a light fixture. In addition to be very talented and building me a kitchen that I love, they are genuinely good humans, which is even more important. I’d highly recommend JCB."

"We had a great experience with RJ Berra. They came on time, verified exactly what we wanted and then carefully and safely removed the limbs that we wanted removed without hurting our deck, fence or even any plants in our yard. They were conscientious, friendly and professional and we are so happy with the results. Would definitely recommend them."

"I moved into a house that was decorated in the 1960s, complete with green carpet.  I did some basic re-modelling (new floors and appliances, wallpaper removal) but I didn't know how to make it feel like a home.  I would walk through a furniture or home decor store aimlessly, unsure of how to proceed and afraid of spending money on something that wouldn't work in the house.   <br /> <br /> Then I met Pam and felt completely at ease with her right away.  She had some really good ideas to improve my home by using some items I already had, and by moving things around.  Then we worked through the house, one room at a time.  She helped me choose paint colors, then we went shopping together and found rugs, furniture, drapes, etc.  Now I love my home; it is cozy but elegant, and easy to maintain.  My children love to come home from college to spend time here.  And I am so relieved that it?s done.  Instead of wasting time looking for stuff, I spend time in my favorite place?my beautiful home! <br /> <br /> Pam is so good to work with, and truly has her customers? happiness at heart.  Thank you Pam!"

FAQs for holiday lighting add or remove projects in Sykesville, MD

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.
