A festive home starts with a simple line.
Start with a front eave, bring the porch into the picture, or outline the roofline you see from the street. Choose a color scheme and let the actual shape of your home guide the layout.

Let the front eave lead
A front-facing run can be a good starting point for a smaller layout. Include the garage or porch if those edges feel like part of the same view. There is no minimum job, so the plan can focus on the areas that matter to you.
Pick a single color story
Warm white gives a quiet outline, while red and white or red and green bring a familiar Christmas contrast. Multicolor adds a more playful look. Think about the decorations you already enjoy and choose roofline colors that feel at home with them.
Look from the driveway
The important view may be from the street, your front door or the driveway as you arrive home. Tell the team which view you care about. The best estimate begins with those priorities, then measures the runs needed to create the look.
Give January a place in the plan
The whole seasonal service includes installation, takedown and storage. Your quote should make the January arrangements just as clear as the installation date. We test and label the lights before storing them for another season.
Treat extra decorations as separate requests
Trees, bushes, wreaths and other accents can be part of your inspiration, but they need a separate discussion about what is offered, how they can be reached and what the work would cost. Do not assume they are included in the published roofline rate.
Turn an idea into a written price
Send your address and describe the look. Four ground-level daylight photos can help us understand the home. We measure the actual roofline, confirm the scope and give you a written quote before you book. Your 50% deposit locks the applicable first-installation rate.
