What to Expect From Our Holiday Lighting Installation in Erie County & Niagara County Areas
We make it easy, efficient, and safe—start to finish!
Consult & Design
We talk through your goals, color temperature, patterns, and add‑ons. We map rooflines, windows, peaks, and trees, then provide a design mockup. Booking earlier widens the installation window before the first winter storms start to hit! We strive to get the lights up before the first snowfall.
On‑Site Custom Fit
Every run is cut to fit on-site with SPT wire and sealed connections. We plan power distribution, GFCI protection, and hide wiring for a clean, professional look. On brick or metal storefronts, we choose non‑invasive fasteners suited to the surface.
Pro Install with Safety Checks
Trained, insured crews install using wind‑rated clips, correct spacing for exposed corridors, and drip loops to manage meltwater. We avoid installs during active icing and recheck connections after heavy, wet snow if you contact us experiencing issues. Timers are set for your preferred schedule.
In‑Season Maintenance Response
If a section dims or a bulb fails, we aim to respond quickly—often within 24–48 hours in‑season, weather permitting. After significant storms, we prioritize safety checks and fast touch‑ups.
Takedown & Storage
After the holidays, we remove everything, protect your shingles, gutters, and landscaping, label your system, and store it for next year. No bins in your basement, no tangled cords, no hassle.
Typical timelines: Consults can happen quickly; installs are scheduled in batches as the season ramps. Early fall booking helps secure wider options before snow bands settle in.

F&Q: Holiday Lighting Installation
How early should I book holiday lighting in Erie County or Niagara County?
Booking in early fall gives you the most flexibility for design mockups and installation dates before lake‑effect patterns ramp up. We do accept in‑season requests, but weather and demand can tighten windows. The benefit of booking early is smoother scheduling for complex designs—trees, ridges, and multi‑color patterns take longer to prep. If you’re ready to start, contact us and we’ll hold a consultation slot.
Can you install lights we already own in these counties?
We use lease‑only, professional‑grade materials so we can warrant the system and ensure compatibility, safety, and durability in Buffalo weather. That means we don’t install client‑supplied lights. Our leased C9/C7 LEDs, SPT 1 wire, sealed connectors, and wind‑rated clips are chosen for performance in snow, wind, and freeze‑thaw. If you have a specific look you want to match, share photos and we’ll design a similar style using our pro materials.
What does your holiday lighting service include for homes in Erie and Niagara counties?
Our full service includes custom design mockups, on‑site cut‑to‑fit rooflines, pro installation with timers, neat cable runs, in‑season maintenance, takedown, and storage. We tailor layouts to your architecture—rooflines, windows, peaks, trees—and use commercial LEDs, sealed connections, and GFCI‑aligned practices for safety and reliability. You get a bright, uniform finish with hidden wiring and no storage headaches after the holidays. See examples in our Gallery or start with a quick consult.
How fast do you handle maintenance if a bulb goes out?
In‑season, we aim to handle most maintenance within 24–48 hours, weather permitting. After heavy snow or wind events, we triage safety checks and visible outages first. Our leased materials are warrantied through us, so you contact one team—no chasing parts or manuals. If you notice dimming or a loose section, send a photo and your location for faster routing. To get on our maintenance schedule, reach out via Contact.
Do you offer tree wrapping, wreaths, garlands, and storefront lighting?
Yes. Popular add‑ons include trunk and canopy wraps, ridge and peak highlights, wreaths and garlands, color patterns, and clean storefront framing. Trees in wind‑exposed corridors may require adjusted spacing and extra sealing; brick or metal facades get non‑invasive, surface‑appropriate anchors. We’ll include these in your mockup so you can visualize the full composition before installation. Browse inspiration in our Gallery or schedule a design consult to plan it out.
Are you insured for installations across the Buffalo area?
We’re fully insured for residential and commercial holiday lighting in Erie County and Niagara County, and we provide a Certificate of Insurance upon request. Our trained crews follow ladder safety, fall protection, and electrical best practices, including GFCIs and weather‑sealed connections. Safety drives our process—from load calculations to takedown—so your property and our team are protected throughout the season.
Holiday lighting near me — do you serve my town in Erie or Niagara County?
Yes—we cover homes and businesses throughout both counties from our West Seneca hub. For the quickest answer, view our Service Areas Hub and select your town; each page explains nuances that affect design and scheduling in your area. If you don’t see your location listed yet, reach out—we continually add suburbs and can confirm coverage and timing.
What kind of LEDs and materials do you use?
We use commercial C9/C7 LEDs for rooflines and features, SPT‑1 wire for durability, UV‑resistant cords, wind‑rated clips, and sealed, weather‑rated connections. Timers are included and set to your preferred schedule. These choices handle lake‑effect moisture, wind exposure, and freeze‑thaw cycles common across Erie County and Niagara County. The result is brighter, more uniform lighting with minimal maintenance. Want to see the difference? Check our Gallery for close‑ups.
Do you do commercial lighting?
We’re residential‑first and take on select commercial projects in Erie and Niagara County—think storefronts, restaurants, offices, and small plazas. For holiday displays, our lease model keeps maintenance fast and predictable. For landscape systems, we design for safety and visibility. Share your scope and timeline, and we’ll confirm fit.
Will the installation damage my shingles, gutters, or paint?
Our systems are designed to protect your property. We use appropriate, non‑invasive clips for shingles and gutters, avoid screws in visible finishes, and route cables to minimize contact with paint or landscaping. We also consider snow slide paths and ice dams when placing clips. After the season, we remove and store everything—no residue or adhesive left behind. If you have a unique surface or finish, we’ll recommend the best attachment options during your consult.
