"I was extremely pleased with WOW Organizing! I had been nervous to have someone I didn't know come to my home to help me organize. I figured I would be judged for being so cluttered, but Ann was so upbeat and non-judgmental! Her help was <em>exactly</em> what I needed. In a few short hours, we went through my family room and bedroom. We made bags for donation, recycling, and trash. We decided the most intelligent "home" for things that didn't have a place to be and then quickly got things put away. I was so happy to have a calm and peaceful space again! <br /> I really could not have been happier with Ann's excellent service. I will definitely be contacting her again soon for help with my basement. <br /> <br /> <br />"

"We had a problem with one of their employees smoking on our property. We complained to the manager of the company. Other than that everything was good. In the winter they are a Christmas shop and in the summer they do pools. They treated the water and vacuumed out the algae. We can see the bottom of the pool. They charge $85 an hour. It took three visits but, they did a good job. They discovered a part on our pump that was malfunctioning so, they replaced it. They seem to be good on price."

FAQs for holiday lighting add or remove projects in Elkin, NC

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.
