Eugene H. says, "Forewarning Im not the best at typing so please excuse any spelling or grammatical errors! Owner Justin was great!I have become quite the skeptic because customer service and quality just isn't like it was 20, 30, 40 year back. But I chose this contractor cause His initial email stood out and was very informative, professinal, and well spoken. And very fast response time. He cold sense my skepticism so he provided us with an abundance of credentials from electrical, property management and construction design license and certifications, several awards hes achieved, copy of insurance, simple but effective contract and references, receipts, the whole nine. Communication is huge to me and he was very attentive, knowledgeable, listens very well, and made sure to deliver exactly what i requested. My only complaint for giving- 4 stars- wasnt directed towards Justin. It was cause a guy working for him was on his phone a lot when Justin wasnt looking but I made justin aware of this and he dealt with the issue immediately and we had no more issues. Would definitely recommmend his services. Im glad to provide reference and any questions (937)583-3100 " Read more

Jordan G. says, "ARRK handyman Service was hired by my company to put a 150ft wood fence in the backyard of our rental property with two gates in order to create privacy from the railroad tracks directly behind the property. Russell and his crew showed up ready to work in the middle of a snow storm when they live an hour and a half away. They had to cut down gigantic tree in order to install the fence on very uneven ground. The final product turned out beautifully! He did a wonderful job in regards to the work. However, I had to subtract one star for poor communication and follow thru. I had asked Russell to complete the project within a 3 day time span and to also stay in contact with me every morning with updates. The project ended up taking a full 2 weeks to complete and I was only contact one time with an update. He also put the front gate in an awkward spot, not where I had planned for it to go. In the end, The quality of work was so stunning that some of these other issues fell to the wayside. We would most definitely work with Russell and Arrk Handyman Services again!" Read more

Your Christmas Light Installation questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on HomeGuide.

How much does Christmas light installation cost near me?

Christmas light installation costs $240 to $650 on average or $2.50 to $5.00 per linear foot for the lights and installation labor. The total cost depends on the house size, light quality, and any other Christmas decorations needed. Fees are 20% more for homes with 2+ stories or steep roofs.

Lighting service pros charge $50 to $75 per hour with minimum service fees of $150 to $200.

Permanent Christmas lights cost $20 to $40 per linear foot, or $2,000 to $8,000 on average. This option is more expensive but eliminates the need to install and remove strings of lights every year. If you regularly pay for professional Christmas light installation, permanent lighting will pay for itself after a few years. 

When do I install Christmas lights?

Most people wait until after Halloween or the middle of November to install Christmas lights, but installations are typically available from early October onwards. Most homeowners remove Christmas lighting in the first week of the new year.

How long does Christmas light installation take?

Christmas light installation typically takes from 2 to 5 hours on average or up to 2 days for large properties or complex layouts. The setup time varies greatly according to the size of the crew.

How many Christmas lights do I need for my home?

Basic exterior home decorations need 10 to 20 strands of Christmas lights that are 14' to 16' long. The total light strands needed depend on the home's size, overall light design, and the limits of the electrical system. Ask a professional for a custom home assessment.

Do you tip Christmas light installers?

Christmas light installers don’t expect tips but always appreciate it. You can tip $20 to $50 on average or 10% to 15% of the total cost if they exceed your expectations or provide excellent service.

Who installs Christmas lights near me?

Before hiring a Christmas light installer, make sure of the following:

  • Ask if they have liability insurance to cover accidental damages.
  • Compare estimates from at least 3 installers.
  • Check their reviews from earlier installations on HomeGuide and Google.
  • Keep a copy of the contract and labor warranty.
  • Request a detailed list of all fees involved.
  • Beware of the cheapest quotes for low-quality bulbs prone to failure or poor service standards.
  • Don't make the final payment until after all the lights are hung.

What questions do I ask a Christmas light installer?

  • How long have you been installing Christmas lights?
  • Can I see photos of your light installations and a references list?
  • How big is the crew handling the Christmas lighting installation?
  • Does your company provide repairs and fix issues after hanging the lights?
  • How do I contact the project supervisor?
  • Does this estimate include light removal at the end of the season?
  • What types of lights are best for my project?
  • Which light sizes and colors do you offer?
  • Can my current electrical system handle these lights?
  • Will you install Christmas lights that I've bought, or do you only hang your own lights?
  • How long does installation take, and do I need to be home for that?
  • Do you offer any Christmas light guarantees to change lights if they go out?
  • Can you store my Christmas lights after the season?
