Common Holiday Light Installation Questions
Here are some frequently asked questions we receive about our holiday lighting services.
Still have other questions?
We understand that choosing the right lighting can be a big decision. We’re here to answer any questions you might have about our processes, pricing, or services. Just let us know!
What is included in your holiday light installation service?
Our holiday light installation service is fully custom and designed to be stress-free from start to finish. Each project includes a custom lighting layout, professional installation, and secure mounting using professional-grade tools and equipment.
Installation takes place October through December, with optional maintenance during the season, followed by post-season removal (January–February, weather permitting) and organized year-round storage of your lighting.
How much will it cost?
Prices vary based on the size and complexity of your installation. We offer free estimates to help you understand costs before starting your project.
When should I contact you?
We strongly recommend scheduling as early as possible, especially for November and early December installations. The holiday lighting season is short, and availability becomes limited quickly.
Booking early helps secure your preferred installation date and ensures your home or business is ready before the holidays.
How long does an installation take?
The time it takes to install depends on the complexity and scale of the project. Simple designs can be installed in an hour or two, while larger displays take longer. We’ll provide a timeline during your estimate.
Are your holiday lights installed by a licensed electrician?
Yes. All installations are completed by a licensed New Hampshire electrician with over 8 years of professional electrical experience. This ensures your holiday lighting is installed safely, securely, and with proper electrical practices.
Unlike many seasonal installers, our electrical background allows us to properly manage connections, loads, and outdoor conditions — helping protect your home or business throughout the holiday season.
Can I customize my lighting?
Absolutely! We love working with you to create a custom lighting display that fits your vision. Share your ideas with us, and we’ll help bring them to life in a way that suits your style.
What payment methods do you accept?
Do you provide maintenance or bulb replacement during the season?
Yes. Maintenance and bulb replacement are available upon request throughout the holiday season. If an issue arises, we respond quickly to keep your display looking its best
This service is especially helpful during storms or heavy winter weather, common in New Hampshire.
What if I need help after installation?
If you encounter any issues after installation, just give us a call! We’re here to help resolve any problems as quickly as possible so you can enjoy your lighting.
Are your lights energy-efficient?
Yes, we use energy-efficient LED lights (Govee Lights) to help reduce electricity consumption while still providing bright and festive displays. It’s better for your wallet and the environment!

Commercial lighting is custom-designed to enhance visibility, create a welcoming atmosphere, and maintain a polished, professional appearance throughout the holiday season.
Do you provide the lights, or are they included in the pricing?
All lighting materials are leased by the customer as part of a custom quote. This allows us to select the appropriate professional-grade lighting based on your home or building, layout, and design goals.
By using high-quality materials, we ensure better durability, brightness, and performance throughout the season.
