The holidays end. The help doesn’t.
January takedown and storage are included with our Christmas light installation. We remove the lights, test and label them, and store them until next season. Reinstallation is $4.50 per foot.

When do the Christmas lights come down?
Our planned takedown window is January 2–15. Your quote confirms the actual date, so you know the plan before installation starts. Keep any gate or property-access arrangements in that same quote and tell the team if something changes after the holidays.
January takedown is part of the seasonal price, not a separate task you have to arrange. We remove the strands and clips as part of that service. You do not need to get onto the roof to loosen or gather anything before the crew arrives.
Tested, labeled, ready for another conversation
After takedown, we test and label the lights before storing them until the next season. Keeping the layout together helps us discuss the same roofline when you want it installed again. If you plan to add an extension, replace gutters or change the decorated area, let us know before rebooking.
We supply and own the lights; you pay for the season. The $4.50-per-foot reinstallation rate includes installation, takedown and storage. It applies to our stored lights, and the written quote confirms the footage and dates for that next installation.
What if another company installed my lights?
Our included takedown service covers the lights we installed. If you need removal of lights supplied by someone else, describe the installation and send ground-level photos with your request. The team must confirm whether it can take on that work and provide a separate quote.
Do not assume the reinstallation price or our 48-hour seasonal repair guarantee applies to another supplier’s lights. We review the actual product, condition and access before confirming a service.
Keep the whole season in one quote
Your seasonal plan should name the decorated runs, color scheme, measured footage, rate and deposit. It should also identify the installation date, January takedown arrangements, storage and how to request help during the season. That is a better comparison than an installation-only figure that leaves January undecided.
We guarantee a fix within 48 hours for our lights during the season, weather permitting. If you are ready to plan the whole service, start with a free measure. No deposit is needed to ask for your written estimate.
How much does it cost to pay someone to put up Christmas lights?

Do you provide the lights?

Does the price include takedown and storage?
Yes. Installation, January takedown and storage are included. We test and label the lights before storing them. Reinstallation of our stored lights is $4.50/ft, with takedown and storage included.
What if a light stops working?
We guarantee a fix within 48 hours for our lights during the season, weather permitting.
When should I book Christmas light installation?
Earlier booking gives you more time to choose your layout and discuss dates. Installs are planned for October 15–December 10. Your written quote confirms the actual installation date; paying the 50% deposit locks your rate, even when installation is in a later price window.
