Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in your full-service holiday package?
We provide a truly hands-off experience. This includes a custom design, all commercial-grade lights and materials, professional installation, 24-hour repair service if a bulb goes out, and post-season takedown and organized storage.
Do I need to provide my own lights?
To ensure the highest quality and safety, we provide all of our own commercial-grade LEDs. This allows us to guarantee our work and provide free maintenance, as we know the hardware is built to withstand Western Pennsylvania winters.
Do you provide lighting for commercial properties?
Yes! We help local businesses in the Western PA area stand out during the holidays and improve their nighttime visibility year-round with both seasonal and permanent lighting solutions.
When do you start installing Christmas lights?
Our schedule for Christmas lighting fills up fast! We begin installations as early as October to ensure every client is glowing by the time the holiday season officially kicks off.
Are the lights energy-efficient?
Absolutely. We use high-efficiency LED technology that uses roughly 90% less energy than traditional incandescent bulbs, meaning you can keep your home bright without a massive spike in your electric bill.
Where do you store the lights in the off-season?
We take the clutter out of your garage. After the holidays, we carefully pack, label, and store your custom-fitted lights in our climate-controlled facility until next year.
What happens if a light strand goes out?
Maintenance is included in our service. If you notice a bulb out or a strand acting up, just give us a call and we will be out to fix it within 24–48 hours at no additional cost.
What exactly is "Permanent Lighting"?
It is a high-end, weather-proof LED system installed in a discreet track along your roofline. It’s designed to stay up year-round, allowing you to change colors and patterns via an app for any holiday, sporting event, or for daily architectural accent lighting.
How do the permanent lights look during the day?
Our permanent lighting systems are designed with a low-profile, architectural track that is color-matched to your home’s trim or soffits. This makes the system virtually invisible from the street during daylight hours, maintaining your property’s clean aesthetic.
How do I control the colors and schedules?
You have total control through a user-friendly smartphone app. You can easily change colors for specific holidays, set automated timers, or choose architectural “warm white” presets for daily use.
Is permanent lighting a good fit for commercial buildings?
Absolutely. For businesses, permanent lighting increases nighttime visibility and allows you to instantly brand your building with company colors or celebrate local events and holidays without the recurring cost of seasonal installers.
Can the lights be used for more than just holidays?
Yes, that is the primary advantage of the system. While great for Christmas, our clients use them year-round for subtle architectural accenting, game day team colors, security lighting, and special occasions like birthdays or graduations.
