Winter and seasonal
Holiday lighting installation
Warm-white lights on the eaves and columns — restrained, even, and taken seriously.
The houses we work for do not want a lit-up carnival. They want the roofline and the porch to look finished from the street, and they do not want to be on a ladder in December.
We design a simple run: eaves, peaks you can see, columns, and a door garland if you want one. Clips, not staples through the roof. Commercial-grade warm white unless you ask for color. Install is booked in November.
Included
- Design walk or photo plan
- Install on the agreed lines
- Timer set
- One service visit if a run fails during the season
How it is quoted
Quoted by the linear foot and the number of peaks after we see the front elevation. This is a primary winter job — book before Thanksgiving.
Existing exterior outlets only. No new circuits. Tall peaks and trees are quoted with a lift when a ladder is not enough.

Questions
How do you quote holiday lighting installation?
Quoted by the linear foot and the number of peaks after we see the front elevation. This is a primary winter job — book before Thanksgiving.
What should we do before you arrive?
Send photos in daylight, move cars off the work area, and tell us about pets, a pool, or plantings you are particular about. If this is a house call, send the list ahead so we can say half day or full day before we block the calendar.
What will you not take on?
Existing exterior outlets only. No new circuits. Tall peaks and trees are quoted with a lift when a ladder is not enough.
Often booked with it
Gutter cleaning and flush
Leaves and grit pulled out, then a flush so winter rain leaves the house instead of the fascia.
Leaf and bed cleanup
Beds, corners, and the roof valleys of leaves that make a kept house look closed for the season.
Holiday light removal
Lights down, clipped clean, and labeled if you want them next year.
Winter property check
A walk of a house you are not living in — lake place, listing, or a primary home while you are away.
