Book your Christmas lights in September or early October. In Southern Indiana, install dates go first-come and October books up first. Booking early doesn't mean your lights turn on early: we can install in October and leave them off until the day you pick.
The Elite Exteriors lights timeline
| When | What happens |
|---|---|
| Late summer | Booking opens. Best time to grab a design consultation. |
| Early October to mid-December | Installs. October dates go first. |
| The date you choose | Lights switch on. Timers bring them on at dusk every night. |
| All season | Anything that goes out gets fixed at no charge. |
| January | Takedown, weather permitting. Lights get labeled and stored for next year. |
Why booking early matters
- You get the date you want. Our crew can only do so many roofs a day, and most homes take a full day. Once a week fills, it's full.
- Weather. Cold, wind and rain later in the season can push install dates back. An October slot leaves room for that.
- Lights are up before the rush. If you want them on the day after Thanksgiving, they need to be on the roof before then.
Can I still book in November or December?
Yes, until our schedule is full. Installs run through mid-December. The later you call, the fewer dates are left, so text us your address and we'll tell you the next open day.
Booking for next year
If you lease for 2, 3 or 5 years, your install is on our list every fall and your price stays locked for the whole plan. You don't have to rebook each summer.
