Christmas Light Installation FAQ for Portland Homeowners

How often should Portland homeowners get christmas light installation?
Given Portland's cold winters averaging 21°f with 61 inches of annual snowfall, most homeowners benefit from christmas light installation at least once a year. Heavy snow removal from roofs and driveways (December–March) often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in Portland most need christmas light installation?
Victorian and Italianate homes in the West End historic district and Cape Cod and Colonial homes throughout Cumberland County are the most common home types in Portland 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.
