Reserve your route spot
Our first-season route is capped at 10 homes so every install gets owner-level attention. Spots go in order — once the route is full, it's full until next year.
Custom-fit install (late Oct–Nov)
We cut commercial-grade C9 LED strings to fit YOUR roofline exactly — no drooping extra footage, no gaps. Professional clips only; no staples, no screws, no gutter damage.
Lit all season
Everything is on timers and weather-rated for a Wisconsin winter. If something goes dark mid-season, tell us and we'll make it right.
January takedown + storage
Takedown is included in your install price — not a surprise January invoice. We remove everything, label it, and store it. You never touch a ladder or a storage bin.
Why we capped our first lights season at 15 homes
I'll be straight with you: 2026 is our first Christmas lights season. We're not pretending otherwise — Madison has installers who've been hanging lights for a decade, and the way we earn a place next to them is by doing a small number of installs extremely well, not by overselling year one. So the route is capped at 10 homes, every install is done by me and my two-person crew personally, and our existing wash customers get first call. What we bring from day one is the same thing our window and house-washing customers already know: we show up when we say we will, we use hardware that doesn't damage your gutters, and we don't walk steep roofs in a Wisconsin November — the display is designed so we never have to. If a strand goes dark in December, you text us and we fix it. And in January the lights come down, get labeled, and go into our storage — not your garage.
