"Professional, knowledgeable, fairly priced, great follow-up and turnaround time. They replaced and installed all new gutters and painted the outside wood trim on my home. Excellent job and would not hesitate to use them again or refer them to others."

"Perfect. I call them at 9 am, they're where at 10 am. When I talked to the man on the phone. We thought the whole fixture need to be remove. But when the tech (Eric) came he was able to repair it without remove the fixture. They save me a lot of money. I'd used them before. Eric was super polite and perfect. I had others in the past and the service has never been like this."

"After several years of working with Jason and his crew I am compelled to make report of the outstanding work Rickel Electric does. This company y doesn’t waste their money on flashy commercials or fancy bright colored trucks/vans with her name plastered all over in gaudy brihht lettters. Instead you get a low overhead firm that passes that value on in the form of great pricing. All of the A ratings in this Angie review are deserved. My only regret is they eventually become too busy or successfuland & loose what makes them unique, customer focus and value! I doubt it. Rickel is my only electrical contractor. G"

"Leslie provided a detailed plan to both replace and add new plants to our property. We hired GrowWorks for the front and back yards as well as installation of a stone path. Leslie was very responsive and easy to work with during the project. She listed the plants she planned to use and quickly made adjustments when I asked for more color. We liked her vision to add to the existing style of the yard and create a cohesive look. She provided a couple of options on how to install the stone path in the back yard. In the end, we decided to place the stones within the mulch, both to decrease the cost/amount of labor and to keep a more natural look. We also enjoyed working with Conner because he showed dedication and pride in his work. After the project was completed, Leslie provided watering instructions for all the new plants which was helpful. Several of my neighbors have also used GrowWorks so word of mouth recommendations also helped us decide to hire GrowWorks."

"Excellent. Scott Levy is a great designer, and we love the results, including backyard patio/kitchen and all trees/shrubs/flowers and sidewalk/patio stone designs. We also appreciate a multi-year relationship of their quarterly maintenance of our landscaping so that it stays in top condition. A good, honest company that is responsive and always helpful. Our neighbors have hired them too based on our recommendation (or good looking landscaping) and they are happy as well."

FAQs for holiday lighting add or remove projects in Whitestown, IN

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.
