"I signed a contract with Midas Lighting in December 2021 for holiday lighting at my house. At the time, I was not informed that it was a 5-year contract. I requested to cancel the service this year, 2025, but they are threatening to charge me 50% of the contract, which is $1,013 The contract clearly states a duration of 3 to 5 years, and I have already completed 3 years. I believe I have the right to cancel the contract since I no longer need their services. I do not recommend this company due to their misleading terms and aggressive collection attempts. "

"I was in a pinch when my regular snow removal guy went MIA and needed snow cleared immediately. I was hustling to find someone quickly and messaged Milton when it was already late at night. He responded almost immediately and came out the next morning. Milton showed up on time and payed great attention to detail. The job was originally for just the front walk and sidewalk and before I could even ask him to do the back too so I could get my trash cans out he had it already done! Great guy who actually cares and would definitely hire him for future projects. Thanks again! "

The Generator Specialist! We stock over 200 whole home generators, and install 500+ a year. We are a one stop shop. We do not sub contract any work, and we are a Generac factory authorized dealer, warranty dealer, and maintenance dealer. All our technicians are Generac factory certified. We also offer: Bucket truck services, panel upgrades, LED upgrades, emergency service, commercial and industrial services.

"I called them them to replace the fuse in my generator after an electrical storm had damaged it. I knew the fuse was busted because my next door neighbor had an identical issue from the same storm. The electrician came out, inspected the generator and left without making any repairs. I got a bill for a $250 service visit and a call telling me I needed to replace the fuses in my generator which would require an additional $125 service call + $25 for parts. Either they are inept or deliberately trying to rip me off with multiple unnecessary service visits, either way I would avoid."

"Reliant is the worst contractor who has ever worked on my property. I came to them from Angie's List.. For a while they were fine. The last few times I needed their services, I had to call several times before they responded. Then, they would make appointments that they either do not show up for or kept re-scheduling. The most recent time I used them, it took over 4 telephone calls before they responded with all kinds of lame excuses. Once scheduled there were postponements and when they did do the "work" it was awful. I will never use them again and anyone who does would be crazy to do so. Reliant is far from that. They are totally incompetent."

FAQs for holiday lighting add or remove projects in Whippany, NJ

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.
