"2 cleaning people arrived at the specified time.  They were friendly and attentive to my requests.  Baseboards and moldings were dusted using a wool duster.  All high to reach items were also dusted with a wool duster. Then damp dusting on furniture was completed using a damp cloth sprayed with a water and essential oil mixture that smelled heavenly. <br /> All kitchen surfaces and sink were wiped clean. Dining table & chair seats were wiped. All floors were then swept & collected dust was vacummed up.  Our wood floors were damp mopped.  Kitchen & bathroom tile floors were wet mopped. Bathroom shower, sink & toilet were sanitized.  Rugs were vacuumed.  Office desk & printer were wiped with damp cloth.  All trash cans were emptied.  I asked and they took the trash out & put in can outdoors. <br /> They used all eco-friendly cleaning products which they brought with them as well as all necessary cleaning supplies.  They had an Oreck vacuum cleaner, mops, brooms,  buckets, terry & linen rags (no paper towels). <br /> They were very friendly and polite. They asked if there was anything else I needed before leaving. <br />  I have continued to have them clean monthly. <br />"

"Barb, Ira, and the crew are the hardest working people I have ever had at my house! They are prompt and do an amazing job- installing new plants, removing old plants, and weeding. I feel very proud of my yard now . Barb and Ira are also very very knowledgeable about trees and plants. They gave me very good directions on what to keep and what I could afford to get rid of. Their prices are a little high, but , I think, fair for the quality of work they do. I have recommended them to friends. And I will continue to do so."

"I go to AC Moore for holiday supplies. It is a craft store that I use. As long as I buy their products, they will not charge to make it. The girls that do the flower arrangements are fantastic. I have bought stuff from somewhere else and have taken everything to them. As long as I bought stuff that she needed to make this, I did not have to pay for it to be made. They have coupons, and discounts. I am very satisfied. Best time to go is in the morning or later at night. They also do picture framing. "

"I have used them twice. What a joy it is to have clean skylights! They were very organized, efficient, pleasant to talk to, and neat. They even cleaned the leaves that were backed up behind the skylights as part of the gutter cleaning."

"Service was good. They came out to give me an estimate the same day that I called. The next morning they were calling to confirm I wanted the service done and they came out that afternoon. I had an emergency and had to leave before the job was completed. They emailed me my receipt the next day. I would definitely recommend this provider. <br />"

"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."

FAQs for holiday lighting add or remove projects in Upper Darby, PA

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.
