Christmas Designers offers a quality selection of commercial rated Christmas trees for both indoor and outdoor use. While our specialty are large and giant Christmas trees, we do have commercial trees as small as 14 feet. If you’re searching for a Christmas Tree that will truly stop people in their tracks, then look no further than the world renowned Rocky Mountain Pine tree. Capable of being built to heights exceeding 100 feet, these trees are displayed in high profile areas throughout the United States, Europe and South America. As with all of our products, we offer our earth friendly LED lighting options on all Christmas Trees.
Christmas Designers additionally offers many other visual outdoor Christmas decorations including Menorahs, Nativity scenes, building front wreaths, garlands, and a wide collection of banners.
In addition to our large stock, extra options are available on many decorations. If the lack of power at the desired location is a problem, then you can opt for brightly colored garland, glitter, or reflective solar disks on the decoration rather than standard lights. Or perhaps power is available, but not a sufficient amount for a standard lighted decoration. You can choose to replace the usual incandescent bulbs with our new LED bulbs, dramatically reducing the amount of power required.

How to Inspect the Exterior of Your Home

Prevent problems before they begin -- learn what to look for and how to properly maintain the exterior structure of your home.

The exterior of your house has to withstand the elements through all seasons. An annual inspection is important to ensure that all aspects of exterior structure are maintained. It pays to be vigilant in checking for any potential problems, because this may prevent them from escalating into something more serious.

All About…

• Foundations
• Siding
• Roofing

More Topics

Whenever you find evidence of a problem, consider these key issues before taking any action. First, assess the physical extent of the problem, and check whether it is symptomatic of a larger issue. For example, a loose tile may simply need to be secured, or may be symptomatic of an underlying problem. Consider whether it is something you can fix yourself, or if you need to call in a professional for advice or to complete the work. Once you know what you are dealing with, assess whether the problem needs to be tackled immediately, or whether it can wait until you have the funds and the time to deal with it more easily. Problems such as leaking pipes or constantly running overflows are damaging and wasteful, and if you have a water meter they will be costing you a considerable amount of money. If the problem is a seasonal one, such as leaves blocking a gutter, it is worth planning for annual maintenance work. Remember that if you are hoping to sell your home, any problems with the exterior can seriously affect first impressions, and therefore the price you can expect to receive for your property.

1. Chimney

Pointing and flashing should be sound and must be properly installed to ensure that water cannot penetrate the roof.

2. Siding

Boards should be sound, with no flaking paint or varnish. Vents must be clear of obstruction. This should be included as part of your boiler service schedule.

3. Doors and Windows

These should have a protective or preservative finish. Vinyl should be kept clean. Windows must have a protective coat of paint or finish.

4. Downspouts

Pipes should have no leaks at joints, and water should flow easily into drainage systems. Downspouts must be clear of any vegetation and leaves to ensure that water drains away efficiently.

5. Drains and Gutters

Check for any signs of blockage and keep free of debris. Gutters should be free of corrosion and leaks, and water should run easily. Remove blockages immediately. Trees close to the house may occasionally cause subsidence, and their leaves may block gutters. Fascia board should be in sound condition and show no sign of decay.

Add Columns for an Architectural Boost

Exterior columns are sometimes load-bearing or purely decorative. They add detail to a porch, portico or veranda and can make your entry a defined destination. There are different shapes and styles of plain and fluted columns that reinforce or enhance specific architectural styles, everything from historically accurate elegant Ionic and textured Corinthian columns to the thick and tapered square columns that are a trademark of Craftsman homes.
"Proportion is very important with columns," says Davis. "You want to think about it ahead of time. We've all seen columns that are too skinny for a porch."
Columns on stone-faced pedestals are a nice option for a rustic-style home. You can even space columns far apart to make a tight entry feel more gracious and inviting, or use columns in pairs to visually establish a rhythm on a porch.
Columns come in a variety of materials, from traditional wood to composites, and range in price from around $100 to $5,000. Prices depend on the design and material as well as the bottom diameter and height of the column.
"If cost is an issue, stay with something in a simple design," says Davis. "If you add an ornate cap or other detail, you're going to pay more."
Columns made from composite materials are a popular option because they stand up to the elements and can be cut to length. Many carry a lifetime warranty, but always check with the manufacturer.

Exterior Trim, Molding and Columns

Create curb appeal with these handy touches that add character to your home.

Sometimes the exterior of your home needs that finishing touch to make it look complete. Decorative trim, molding and columns are three design tools you can use to reach this goal.

Dress Up Your Home With Trim and Molding

Adding molding and trim to the exterior of your home is like wearing a great pair of earrings or the perfect pair of shoes: It can create harmony and add a nice touch of elegance.
"Exterior trim and molding can bring an old house back to life and bring an under-featured house, regardless of age, to a newfound sense of vibrancy," says licensed general contractor Mark Clement, host of the MyFixItUpLife radio show.
There are many types of decorative exterior molding and trim you can use, including gingerbread trim, dentil molding, brackets or a gable pediment. Choose trim that complements the architectural look and style of your house. For example, exterior crown molding and a pediment used over a front door flanked by columns or pilasters create a cohesive and attractive entry for a classic, formal-style home.
"My best suggestion for someone who wants to add detail to the exterior of their house is go on the Internet and look at homes in your style for ideas," says Jeffrey L. Davis, founder and owner of Chadsworth Incorporated. "You want to keep the details consistent with the style of your house."
Once only available in wood, molding and trim products now come in synthetic materials (including composites and cellular PVC) that are lightweight, long-lasting, require less maintenance, and easy to shape, mold or cut using standard woodworking tools. The installation process and price depend on the type of molding or trim you choose. For example, you can pay less than $5 a foot for dentil molding in a synthetic material, or pay $30 a foot for molding with an intricate design. Replacing exterior wood trim can cost around $5 to $12 per square foot, while replacing exterior brick trim can cost $15 to $20 per square foot. Costs vary by material and sizing.
Something as simple as choosing a screen door with decorative trim can have an impact on the look of your house and require no additional installation. Consider your budget, the time you want to spend on the project and any upkeep the material might require when deciding on the right molding and trim for your home.
