Pricing
How much does holiday lighting cost?
Every property is different. We provide free, no-hassle estimates with guaranteed first-year pricing so you know exactly what to expect before we start.
Are there any hidden fees?
No. Your estimate includes design, installation, maintenance, takedown, and storage. The price you are quoted is the price you pay this year. When we install the lights we get the exact linear footage and that footage is what we charge you for year 2 and on.
Do I need to buy my own lights?
No. We provide all the lights and materials. They are included in your estimate. The first years price includes the materials so you own the lights. Every year after you pay for labor for installation and removal.
I have lights from another company, will you install those?
Unfortunately, we stopped installing anyone elses lights. In order for us to warranty and guarantee the lighting, the equipment must be our standard commercial lighting.
Scheduling
When should I book my installation?
We recommend getting an estimate and booking in October or 1st week of November at the latest if you want your lights up by Thanksgiving. Our schedule fills up quickly, so booking early ensures you get to enjoy your lights for the whole season.
How long does installation take?
We have very experience crews who install hundreds of homes each year. Your installation will generally take less than 1 hour for normal sized homes.
Service Area
When do you take the lights down?
We schedule takedowns after the holiday season, typically before the end of January. We takedown lights by area, and we text you a date range where we expect to have your lights removed by. If there are storms with snow or ice, that can and has delayed our schedule.
Where do you provide service?
We currently serve Lee's Summit, MO and Raymore, MO, including neighborhoods like Winterset Valley and Creekmoor.
Installation & Maintenance
Do you work with HOA requirements?
Yes. We are familiar with HOA guidelines in Lee's Summit and Raymore neighborhoods and are happy to work within your community's rules.
What types of lights do you use?
We use commercial-grade LED lights. Options include warm white, cool white, multi-color, and custom combinations in both C7 and C9 sizes. C9 is the most common and is what you see in all our photos.
What if a light goes out during the season?
We include in-season maintenance at no extra charge. Let us know and we will come fix it.
Are you insured?
Yes. We carry full liability coverage for every installation.
Do you store the lights after the season?
Yes. Off-season storage is included with every project.
