Christmas Light Installation FAQ for San Francisco Homeowners

How often should San Francisco homeowners get christmas light installation?
Given San Francisco's karl the fog: persistent summer fog from the pacific keeps temperatures at 55–65°f on the west side, most homeowners benefit from christmas light installation at least once a year. Year-round fog moisture causing wood rot and paint peeling on west-facing Victorians often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.

Victorian Painted Ladies and Edwardian flats (most common exterior) and Spanish colonial and stucco in the Sunset and Richmond districts are the most common home types in San Francisco 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.

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?
