How a season works

You lease the lights. We do the ladders, the timer and the storage. Scroll down the strand.

  1. Before November

    We measure your house

    Send your address. We measure your rooflines, peaks and trees and reply with a price, usually within a day.

  2. November

    Up they go

    We cut the wire to the exact length of your eaves, clip the C9s on straight and wrap your trees.

  3. Every night

    On at dusk, every night

    We can put everything on a timer, so it switches on as it gets dark and off at night with nothing for you to do. If a bulb goes out, tell us and we swap it.

    In December, dusk in Kitchener is around 4:45 p.m.

  4. In the new year

    Down and stored

    Any time in the new year, on a day you choose, we take everything down and store your strand, labelled for your house.

    Back up again

    Same strand, same roofline, cut to fit already. Nothing for you to set up.

Big trees, wrapped

A mature tree wrapped in lights is the thing people slow down for. We wrap it trunk to limb by hand, close and even, so the whole shape of the tree glows from the street.

  • Trunk and big limbs, wrapped tight
  • Warm white or classic colours
  • Each tree quoted on its own
  • Taken down and stored with the rest

Rooflines and peaks

Big C9 bulbs on wire cut to the exact length of your eaves, clipped on in a straight line and traced up and over every peak. No extra cord hanging off the end.

Questions

When do they go up and come down?

Up in November, and down any time in the new year, whenever you choose. We book a day with you for each.

How do they turn on?

We can run them on a timer plugged into your outdoor outlet, so they come on at dusk and switch off at night without you doing anything.

What if a bulb burns out?

Send us a message and we’ll swap it. The bulbs are LED, so it doesn’t happen often.

Can you wrap our trees?

Yes, big trees are a big part of what we do. We wrap the trunk and the large limbs so the whole tree glows. Tick tree wraps in the form and we’ll quote each tree.

Can you do a taller house?

Yes. We have the equipment to go tall, including 40-foot ladders, harnesses and ladder stabilizers.
