A full-service Christmas light installation covers five things: a custom design for your roofline, lights provided and cut to fit, professional install, free repairs during the season, and takedown plus storage in January. You shouldn't have to buy a strand, climb a ladder or store a box.
Here's exactly how it works at Elite Exteriors, start to finish.
1. Free design and quote
We come out, walk your rooflines with you and measure every run: the gutter line, the peaks, the garage, columns, trees, whatever you want lit. Then we design the look around the house. Your quote is exact and free, with no pressure.
2. Lights cut to fit your house
We use commercial-grade C9 LED bulbs, cut to the length of each roofline so there are no gaps and no extra cord hanging off the corners. We bring every clip, cord and timer. You lease the lights, so if you want warm white this year and multicolor next year, just tell us.
Colors people pick most: warm white, cool white, candy cane, red and green, multicolor, or a custom mix. Wreaths, garland and lit trees can be added to finish the display.
3. Install day
Our insured crew hangs everything with clips made for shingles and gutters. No nails, no screws, no staples. Cords get routed so you don't see them, and timers are set so the lights come on at dusk by themselves. Most homes are done in one day.
Installs run from early October through mid-December. If you book early but don't want the lights on until after Thanksgiving, we can leave them off until the date you pick.
4. Service all season
If a bulb, a section or a timer goes out between install and takedown, call or text us and we come fix it at no charge. That's included in every Christmas lease.
5. Takedown and storage
In January, weather permitting, we take every strand down, label it for your house and store it until next season. Nothing ends up tangled in your garage.

Common questions
How long does Christmas light installation take?
Most homes are done in one day. Bigger homes or displays with trees, wreaths and garland can take longer, and we'll tell you up front.
Do you take the Christmas lights down?
Yes. Takedown and storage are part of the price. We remove everything in January, weather permitting, and store it labeled for your home.
What if my Christmas lights stop working?
Call or text us. Repairs during the season are included, so we come out and fix or replace anything that fails at no extra cost.
