FAQs on Christmas Light Installation
What does it cost?
An average single family home can expect the first year cost for install and removal to be between $400-$600.
The price changes based on linear feet and pitch of roof.
Do you have discounts?
Yes, if you refer neighbors or friends, you will receive a discount on your installation.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
All I need is a detailed picture of the home and roofline or areas where lights or decorations are desired. From the picture I can measure your home and get you a quote by the end of the day. If you accept my services, 50% of this years total expense is requested upfront to secure your spot. You do not need to be home at the time of install or removal. I then store your lights till next year.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have installed Christmas lights since I was a child. I Have won many city awards for my lighting decorations. Besides my years of experience in hanging lights I have a deep knowledge and understanding of electrical load and the potential hazards created by adding lights to your home. You won’t ever hear from another professional that I had no idea what he was doing. My process is the best in the industry and your lights will look the best in the neighborhood.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
Christmas lights have been my passion since I can remember. I always worked to decorate my parents home and neighbors homes for years. In highschool I started installing lights like it was a summer job mowing lawns. I’ve never stopped since then. This business is my way of bringing my passion to your home.
What types of customers have you worked with?
I perform work on all types of residential homes. From the 10,000 sq. ft two story homes to the 1500 sq. ft single roofline homes. I decorate trees and bushes too. My work can cover commercial properties as well.
What advice would you give a customer pricing out these services?
Not all companies are the same. Unfortunately in this industry there are a lot of people who think it is a quick way to make a buck. The company or individual will offer the services at a very low price, work for a year or two and then decide to stop. The customer (you) then ends up with new-ish lights from this guy and no one to install them. especially because professionals like me won’t take used lights and hang them up. All because you went with a cheaper company and in the end spent a lot more on lights than if you had if you just went with a pro like me.
Other things to look for are, is this company insured? Do they carry workers compensation? I carry both. Did you know that if a random guy is on your roof that you hired to do lights and he falls off, your homeowners policy has to cover his injuries. See with my insurance coverages you do not have to worry about that.
Also compare what the other companies focus on for their primary business. Many do lights as a side hustle, This is my hustle and all I focus on.
Do you warrantee your work?
Yes I warranty all my work 100%. If a light bulb burns out, I will have someone out to fix the lightbulb within 24 hours after Nov 24th. If your system fails and all lights go out I will try to fix the problem ASAP.
Do you store the lights?
I store all lights, this is free to all customers. At any time you want your lights just ask and we will deliver them to you.
What Product Do you Use?
I use only commercial grade lighting so you get the best quality product. I use tried and trusted products that I use on my own home. I guarantee you will love the look of your lights.
