"I dealt with Tim for the price and project details and then Jeff was the man who came out to do the job. The deck had previously been done by a guy who did not know what he was doing so Jeff power washed the entire deck and let it dry for 24 hours, then he sanded the deck and scrubbed it down with denatured alcohol to help remove any remaining paint from before. When the deck was dry, Jeff taped off everything and proceeded to edge everything before he rolled a nice thick layer of paint on the deck. We waited another 24 hours and Jeff returned to apply a nice second coat of paint on the entire deck. Tim and Jeff are very easy to work with and I will most certainly come back to them for future projects."

"I received a call back within an hour. They sent a young man the next day. He worked diligently to put my Christmas lights around the columns on my front porch and across the areas between the columns. He set the timer. Everything worked, all was lit. It did not take him long to complete the job."

"Great experience with Cody. We needed to repair tile in our shower/bath combo and took the opportunity to make some structural and stylistic improvements along the way including some plumbing/fixture replacement. He was up front and honest from the first conversation about the project including logical and fair feedback about the scope, timelines, and pricing. We discussed areas of the project that were opportunities for cost savings and he helped us make decisions that left us confident each step of the way. His experience provided good insight into best practices and style choices. This included added two shower inserts that improved the look and functionality of the shower for only couple hundred more dollars. The project began with demo on a Monday and wrapped up on Saturday, only deviated from the projected schedule by a few hours. Cody was pleasant, and patient with our protective dog who barked at him daily reminding him who's house it was, haha. Very pleased with the work and believe the pricing was fair."

"Outdoor Lighting Perspectives gets a 5 star rating from us. They were very professional and friendly. They understood that we didn't want our home lighted up like a used car lot and proposed a quiet elegant lighting solution that fits the character of our home and neighborhood. And, demo-ing the lights at night so we can see what it actually looks like is a fantastic concept. The job was done a few days after we accepted their proposal and the post-install follow-up has been great to make sure we were pleased with the result. If you are looking for outdoor lighting, give Outdoor Lighting Perspectives serious consideration."

"It went very well. I contacted this artist to create a stunning and lifelike self portrait. I then sent photos and payment. In less than a week I had a stunning rendition of myself in both pencil and watercolor. Lance is always courteous and professional. I highly recommend his services to everyone and will do business with him again soon!"

FAQs for holiday lighting add or remove projects in Dillsboro, 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.
