What we do
You don't touch a ladder and you don't store a tangled mess in the attic. We build a mock-up from a photo of your house so you can see the design before you book, then custom-cut C9 lines to fit every run of your roofline. Warm white, full color or a custom mix. Roofline only, or add tree wraps, ground stakes, garland and wreaths.
Everything runs through timers and weatherproof connections and stays up through the season. If a section goes out, let us know and we come back. In January we take it all down and store it for next year. We light homes and businesses, and we travel about an hour to an hour and a half from Longview for installs.

What a wet East Texas winter does to cheap lights
Our winters are humid, and they swing. Seventy degrees on a Tuesday and twenty-two on Thursday night is a normal January here. Cheap lights and standard tape fail when that humidity meets a freeze, which is why so many DIY strands are half dark by New Year's.
We use connectors and tape rated for wet winters, and we size the run wire to the actual length of the circuit, not the claim on the box. The C9 lines are cut to your roofline, so the light follows every ridge, peak and dormer with no gaps. Yard Dog Lights is our Christmas lights division, run by the same crew that works yards the rest of the year.

How much does Christmas light installation cost in Longview, TX?
Most homes start at $900 for professional C9 lights custom-cut to the roofline, installed, taken down after the season and stored. Installs more than an hour from Longview start at $1,800. Bigger rooflines and extras like tree wraps and ground stakes add to it. We quote from a photo mock-up of your house, so you see the design and the price together.
Do you have to come out to give a quote?
No. We build a mock-up from a photo of your house and quote from that. You see where the lights go and what color they are before you book. Once you approve it, we measure each run and custom-cut the C9 lines to fit your roofline, so the light follows every ridge and peak with no gaps.
When should I book Christmas lights in East Texas?
As early as you can. Booking opens in early October, installs run through Thanksgiving week, and the calendar fills up fast. Lighting nights are yours to schedule on the timer, and we come back in January to take everything down, so your lights aren't left hanging until spring.
Do you take the lights down and store them?
Yes. Takedown in January and storage until next season are part of the job, so you never touch a ladder or dig a tangled box out of the attic. If a section goes out during the season, let us know and we come back. Return clients who reuse the same install get a discounted rate.
How far from Longview do you install Christmas lights?
We travel about an hour to an hour and a half from Longview for installs, and we light both homes and businesses. Installs more than an hour from Longview start at $1,800, and most homes closer in start at $900. Send your address with a quote request and we'll tell you where you land.
