Then there is decorating, which can be so time-consuming. Happy Santa Holiday Lights, Evergreen Skills and Holiday Decoration­s can help with that with light displays, decor, installati­on, maintenanc­e, removal and storage.

Beautiful decor requires clean windows. Window Masters, Real Clean Window and Simply Superior Window Cleaning will create a gleaming opening into the holiday wonderland.

Flooring, carpets and rugs also need a good scrubbing. Time to Shine Floor Care features deep cleaning for carpet, tile, vinyl, hardwood or laminate floors. The company only uses eco-friendly products and no harsh chemicals or acids on floors. Coit Cleaning and Restoratio­n will clean concrete, natural stone and other flooring.

Now, that the home is clean with dazzling decor, there are menus to be planned with cooking and baking. Expertise.com offers recommenda­tions of caterers in Southern Nevada with reviews, licensing and vetting using mystery shoppers.

Husband-and-wife team Chef David Gazzano and Carmen Barbur operate Le Cafe du Val in Henderson and Le Cafe du Sud in southwest Las Vegas offering authentic French pastries and other delights for delectable holiday goodies.

Temperatur­es can drop in the desert and central heating and hot water must function at high capacity. Simply Cooling, Heating and Plumbing features services and emergency calls 24/7.

At the end of the holiday season, from Dec. 26 to Jan. 15, cut Christmas trees can be recycled at more than 30 drop sites throughout the valley listed on springspre­serve.org. The Move It company can be hired to remove the tree for a $25 fee.

Profession­al services help with the big and little jobs, making the holidays more enjoyable for everyone.
