"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."

"It went great. Sheila is very proficient, punctual, and stays on top of the work. <br /> We met to discuss what I liked and the direction I wanted to go with my master bed and bath. We then met to select tiles and discuss the design options at a store she recommended. My old tile was removed and replaced. My walk in shower was expanded. Sheila helped me select a quartz countertop, sinks, and fixtures. She was great in recommending what products she thought I would be happy using and new trends to consider. We had to have a lot of wallpaper removed. Her workers did a beautiful job. She selected the paint colors and her painters were great. She finished my bath by making the curtains, hanging mirrors, selecting accessories, wall art, rugs, and towels. That went great. Sheila shopped for these items and brought several choices to my home for me to choose from. <br /> In my master bedroom, her crew removed the textured ceiling and an old built in cabinet. The walls and ceiling were painted. Did an excellent job. I chose my comforter and met her at the fabric store to buy the materials for her to make my bedding accessories and fabric for my chairs to be recovered. All turned out beautiful. She recommended the sheers/blinds I needed, again they are great. She then shopped at very reasonably priced stores for pictures, accent table, and dresser accessories. She has a great eye for design AND bargains. She brought in several options and I chose what I loved. <br /> I would definitely recommend Sheila Sharpe Designs. She was a tremendous help, fun to work with, did quality work and saved us a lot of money. <br /> <br />"

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