FAQ

The best time to schedule holiday lights to be installed is between late Sept and October. During this period, the days are just shortening and darkness is arriving earlier, however it’s a great time to get your holiday lights up before the nights become even shorter. The weather during this season can range from warm to cool. The possibility of bad weather is less than in November. All your lights are up, on a timer and ready for you to be in the festive mood. Plus there are no weather delays! Many people like to wait until after Thanksgiving when they start decorating with Christmas trees and other decorations inside their house but that might be cutting it too close if you want your house lit up with festive holiday lights! Plus, we will require more time due to increased demand around the holidays. If possible, try scheduling an appointment for sometime in late Aug- Sept /early October– this gives us enough time for installations but still ahead of peak demand during December.

This is probably the most commonly asked question. Every project is different, and many variables can affect the cost, such as the amount of lighting required, number of staff required, project challenges, and height variables and equipment needed. It depends on the size and scope of your holiday lighting display, but typically, holiday lighting can cost anywhere from a few thousand dollars and up. Some homeowners opt for more modest displays with only a few strands of lights, while others go all-out with elaborate light shows that include thousands of LED lights and animated characters. The price tag for larger displays can be quite hefty, but the joy they bring to onlookers is priceless. Whatever your budget may be, consider investing in our quality holiday lighting service this year. Not only will it make your home look festive and inviting, but it will also bring cheer to all who see it.
