Currently I am a commercial electrician or a as a mechanic in the trade. Unfortunately I am not a master electrician for any major projects that might need a permit pulled I can’t do that do to state laws. Just being honest. But my rates are fair I don’t don’t charge the customer for material, I usually give a list for the customer to purchase and only charge labor.

"Organiclean is in their third year of cleaning for me, and I couldn't be happier! They clean both the commercial space and my personal space. Their attention to detail is outstanding, they work fast, and they clean better than I ever have! I love that they use environmentally-sensitive products. They understand my needs, communicate clearly with me, and work with me on scheduling when time is tight. I love how all of their employees are carefully vetted and trained by the owner. They all speak fluent English, and have always been courteous, alert, and communicative regarding questions or concerns about every aspect of the cleaning process. They are all trustworthy in every sense. I plan to use Organiclean for as long as we are both in business. Highly recommended!"

"George and Tom did a great job and were a delight to work with. They power washed all the siding first ,which was really needed but not expected. George responded to all my requests in a timely manner,and was always polite. He even did some small areas that weren't in the contract. I would highly recommend them. <br />"

"It went great. I cannot say any more about Rich and his professional services than others have posted here. He is a rare find in the world of wannabe's and scammers. Rich will tell you up front what he can and cannot do. If he can't do a job, he will refer you. And, he will follow-up. We have been using Rich for about 2 years on multiple tasks. A true gentleman."

"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 Abingdon, 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.
