Christmas Light Installation FAQ for Des Moines Homeowners

How often should Des Moines homeowners get christmas light installation?
Given Des Moines's extreme temperature range: -20°f winter wind chills to 100°f+ summer days, most homeowners benefit from christmas light installation at least once a year. Post-hail storm roof and siding inspection (May–July) often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in Des Moines most need christmas light installation?
Brick ranch and Cape Cod homes throughout Polk County and Victorian and Craftsman homes in Sherman Hill and Ingersoll Park are the most common home types in Des Moines and typically see the most wear. Our local pros are familiar with the exterior materials found across the metro.
When should I schedule holiday light installation?
We recommend scheduling in September or early October. The most popular installation windows (October–November) book up fast, especially in warmer climates where outdoor work is pleasant year-round.
Do you provide the lights or do I supply them?
We provide premium commercial-grade LED lights as part of our service. These are far more durable and energy-efficient than retail lights. You lease them each season as part of the service.
What if a strand goes out during the season?
We guarantee your display throughout the season. If anything goes out, call us and we'll come fix it promptly at no extra charge.
Do you take down the lights after Christmas?
Yes. Takedown and storage is included in our service. We typically schedule takedowns in January, or whenever you're ready after the season.
Can you install lights on large trees and landscaping too?
Absolutely. We install lights on rooflines, shrubs, trees, walkways, and any outdoor area you want to illuminate. We'll create a complete property lighting plan.
