Benefits & Tips
Why choose professional Christmas light installers?
• You won't need to work all weekend • No need for risky ladder climbing • Your lights will be up on time every year • Teardown is fast and hassle-free • Offsite storage is easy & convenient
Is it possible to choose and create my own design?
Yes. It is! We can work with you to create the holiday lighting design you want to display, then install it perfectly based on your plan.
Will I need to be home during installation?
No. As long as you have an exterior power connection for us to hook the lights into. We can install your holiday lights while you’re away. However, you may prefer to be home – it’s completely up to you.
What type of lights can I choose from?
Our lighting sets are LED and can help you save energy while lasting for years on end. We also offer RGB lights that you can control. A simple remote will allow you to change the color of your display.
Are your installers insured & bonded?
Yes! We install your Christmas lights with no risk to you.
What a Knoxville Christmas install actually involves
December in East Tennessee is not a dry cold. The month averages a high near 51°F and a low near 33°F, and winter is the wettest season here, so a display goes up knowing it will spend six weeks wet, then freeze overnight, then thaw again. That cycle is what loosens cheap clips and cracks retail-grade sockets. We fix to the edge your house actually has, with product rated to stay where we put it, because the callback in late December is the expensive part for everyone.
The housing runs in two directions and they need different work. Older neighborhoods like Sequoyah Hills, one of the city’s first suburbs, developed in the 1920s and now a National Register historic district, and Fountain City around the Gibbs Drive historic district have mature trees across the sightlines and rooflines that were never designed with a lighting run in mind. Out west in Farragut and Hardin Valley the houses are mostly under twenty years old, two storys and steeply pitched: simpler to plan, considerably higher to reach.
The other local factor is the bar. Knoxville does Christmas properly at civic scale, the Regal Celebration of Lights on the Krutch Park extension, Market Square’s oaks wrapped for Peppermint Grove, the Peppermint Trail down Gay Street, Fantasy of Trees at the end of November. Households on a visible street feel that. Book before the season starts: installs are scheduled in the order they are booked, and the good dates go first.
Who this is for
You have a two-story front, a steep pitch or a wrapped porch, and getting up there yourself is the part you dread.
You are tired of untangling last year’s lights and finding half the run dead when you plug it in.
You run a business or sit on an HOA board and need a lit frontage on a fixed schedule.
What is included
✓ A free on-site design consult and a fixed quote before anything is ordered
✓ Commercial-grade product rated for outdoor winter use, not big-box retail strings
✓ Runs cut and fitted to your roofline on site rather than pulled off a shelf in set lengths
✓ Clips matched to your edge, whether that is shingle, gutter or fascia. No nails or staples through roofing
✓ In-season service. If a section goes dark, you call us and we come back out
✓ Removal after the holidays and storage of your lights until next year
✓ Your measurements kept on file, so a rebook goes up faster the following season
How it works, step by step
01
Book the consult
You pick a time and point at what you want lit. We walk the property, measure the roofline and check the power. It costs nothing and there is no obligation.
02
Approve the design
We show you the run, the color options and the number. Nothing gets ordered until you say yes, and the quote is the quote.
03
Install day
You do not need to be home for most installs. We fit, test every section and set the timer or app schedule before we leave.
04
Season, then takedown
Call us if anything fails. After the holidays we remove the display and store it, so nothing takes up your garage.
Why hire a pro instead of doing it yourself
Height and pitch are the real problem. A two-story front with a steep pitch above a walkout is a long way up, and the days you would be up there are cold, often wet, and sometimes icy. Our crews work at that height with the right access equipment as a matter of routine, which is a different proposition from a homeowner on an extension ladder in December.
The finish is the other half. A fitted run follows the line of your architecture, turns where the roof turns, and holds its spacing across the whole elevation. Retail strings come in fixed lengths, so they either fall short or bunch, and their sockets are not built to survive a freeze-thaw cycle. That is why a professional install still looks deliberate in January.
