Christmas Light Installation in Lake Wales, FL

If the ladder years are behind you

Many homeowners around Lake Ashton and the rest of Lake Wales used to hang their own Christmas lights and have decided they are done with it. That is a sensible call. Setting a ladder against a two-story wall on damp grass in November is risky, no matter how many years you have done it without a problem.

We do the climbing for you. You tell us what you would like lit, and we take care of the rest. We keep everything working all season, and after New Year’s we take it all down and haul it away. You never handle a ladder, a staple gun or a storage tote.

Arched windows, barrel tile and 1920s detail

Around the historic downtown and out toward Mountain Lake, many houses have real architectural detail: arched openings, textured stucco, tile roofs, deep porches and ironwork. Those features deserve to be lit, not covered up. A single clean warm line along the eave, with the arches and porch outlined, looks better than a crowded facade.

Tile roofs also need the right hardware. We use clips made for tile, which are different from the clips we use on a shingle roof in a newer subdivision, so your roof comes through the season without damage.

Lighting a house that sits on a slope

If you moved here from a flatter part of Florida, this may surprise you. Elevation changes how a display looks. A house up a rise is seen from below, so the roofline carries most of the display and anything at ground level tends to disappear. A house that sits below the road is the opposite, and the yard, driveway and trees matter more than the roof. We look at where your house sits before we decide where the lights go, and satellite imagery helps us do that accurately.

The water-facing side of the property

On Crooked Lake, Crystal Lake and Lake Wailes, the best side of a house often faces the water instead of the street. If you spend your evenings on the back porch, or neighbors across the lake will see the house, let us know. We can light rear elevations, dock areas and the trees along the bank, and many lakefront owners find that is the part of the display they enjoy most.

What your Christmas lights cost

Christmas lighting starts at $799. Most homes land between $1,500 and $3,000 for the full season. Larger or multi-story properties usually run $2,500 to $5,000, and full estate-scale displays go above that. Every quote is custom to your property, and the main factors are roofline length, the number of stories, peaks and dormers, and any trees, wreaths, garland or ground-level accents you add.

Corners of Lake Wales we cover

We light homes in Lake Ashton, Highland Park, Whispering Ridge, the Lake Wales Country Club area, Mountain Lake, the historic downtown streets, and around Crystal Lake, Lake Wailes and Crooked Lake. We also serve Babson Park, Dundee, Lake Hamilton and Frostproof. We build quotes remotely from your address, photos and satellite imagery, so you do not need an appointment to get a price.

Permanent lighting for a 1920s facade

If a seasonal install each year is more than you want to deal with, permanent outdoor lighting is the other option. We install a low-profile track under the eave once, color matched to your trim, and you control colors and schedules from your phone. You can run warm white through December, bright colors for the Fourth of July and a soft white the rest of the year. On an older home with good detail, it lets you keep the shape of the house lit all year. Ask for a free quote on both and we can walk you through the options.
