Let it glow.

Designed, installed, maintained, stored

Your house. Your colors.

Step 01

The crew arrives

Insured, fall-protection-trained techs with standoff ladders. You never climb a thing.

Step 02

Custom-cut install

Commercial C9s cut to your exact roofline and clipped on. No nails, no staples, no holes.

Step 03

Gutters & shrubs

One tech works the roofline while the ground crew nets every boxwood. Perfectly straight, 12" spacing.

Step 04

Peaks & trees

Gable rakes and dormers, then trees wrapped trunk to tip. Every cord tucked out of sight.

Step 05

Wreaths & final check

Fresh fir, red velvet, every run tested. Most homes done in a single visit.

How it works

You pick the look. We do the rest.

  1. 01

    Free design consult

    A walk-around or a few photos is all we need. You get a quote and a mockup of your home lit up.

  2. 02

    Custom-cut to your roofline

    We measure every run, then cut commercial C9 line to length. No coiled extra, no dangling cords. Pick warm white, pure white or color.

  3. 03

    Install day

    An insured crew of 2–4 with standoff ladders and fall protection. We use clip-only mounting and GFCI power, set the timer, then do a final walk-through at dusk.

  4. 04

    All-season care

    Wind, ice, a squirrel with opinions. Text us and we're out within 48 hours at no charge.

  5. 05

    Takedown & storage

    Starting January 1 we take it all down, label it by roofline and store it climate-controlled. Next year it goes back up faster.

Questions

Good to know.

From Hampden's 34th Street to the Eastport boat parade, Maryland does the holidays bright. Your house should too.

Early. Install dates run late October through early December and fill by early November. Most of our calendar is booked before Halloween. Returning clients get first pick.

Most clients lease. We supply commercial-grade LED custom-cut to your home, then take it down and store it every January. You can also buy your set outright. Either way we do the ladder work.

No nails, no staples, no holes. We use all-in-one clips on gutters, shingle tabs and ridge clips, and our ladders have standoff arms so they never rest on your gutters.

Not for install or takedown. We just need access to an exterior GFCI outlet. We test everything at dusk and send you a photo.

Text us. Service calls are included and we're typically back within 48 hours, all season long.

Our Year-Round track mounts in a trim-matched channel under the eave. You can barely see it by day. At night you pick any color or scene from your phone: warm white for Christmas, purple for the Ravens, red, white and blue for the Fourth.
