Christmas Light Installation Service
Christmas light installation for Vermont homes, handled from the first layout to off-season storage. Getting on a ladder in November is how people get hurt. We do the whole thing instead - design, install, maintenance through the season, takedown in January, and storage until next Christmas.
Call it a Christmas light hanging service or a holiday lighting company. Either way, you stay on the ground.

How Professional Christmas Light Installation Works
Design
Send a photo or we come out and look. We lay out what will look good on your specific home, rooflines and peaks first, in the colors you choose. You get a layout for your roofline and a price. Nothing comes off a shelf.
Install
Your lights are measured and cut to your roofline, which is the difference between a professional job and retail strands that come in one length. They are clipped properly, run cleanly and tested before we leave.
Maintain
A bulb, a strand, a section knocked out by ice. Call us and we come out. No charge, no argument, for as long as the lights are up.
Take Down
In January, on a date we agree with you. Packed and gone. You never handle a strand.
Store
Your lights live with us until next November, and they go back up the same way every year because they were made for your roof. Nothing in your garage.
You Lease the Lights, You Do Not Buy Them
This is the part worth understanding before you get a quote.
You are not buying a set of lights. You are paying for a season of lighting, and the lights belong to us. That is what makes everything above possible. We maintain them because they are ours, we take them down because they are ours, and we store them so they are ready and in good condition when November comes back around.
Some people call this Christmas light rental. It is closer to a full service, because the lights, the labor and the storage all come together.
What that means for you:
- No up-front cost for equipment
- No repairs, ever
- Nothing to store
- No box of half-dead lights you have to make a decision about in three years

See all service areasWhat Christmas Light Installation Costs
Christmas light installation starts at $700 for the season. That covers design, the lights, installation, maintenance, takedown and storage.
Above that, the price is built for your house: the feet of light line it takes, access and roof type, where the outlets are, how many lights you want, and extras like wreaths or lights in the trees.
Most installers will not publish a price. We think you should see the number before you fill in a form.

Pay for Your Lights Over Time
You don't have to pay for the season all at once. We offer financing through Wisetack, and if you pay it off in 3 months or less, there's no interest.
Longer terms are available at a slightly higher cost. Checking whether you prequalify doesn't involve a hard credit pull.

No. They are cut to fit your roofline in the colors you choose and installed with proper clips, so they sit straight and go back up the same way every year.

We start with a layout for your specific roofline. The lights are cut to the lengths your house needs, clipped properly, run cleanly and tested before we leave. Retail strands come in fixed lengths, which is why a do-it-yourself job ends up with slack or gaps.

Yes. Takedown in January on a date agreed with you, and we store the lights until next season. You never handle them. How takedown and storage work.
As early as you can. Installations run on a schedule and Vermont weather decides a lot of it. The earlier you are on the calendar, the more say you have in your install date. When to put up Christmas lights in Vermont.
