Christmas Lights for the Holidays

Sep 15, 2025

Hi, this is Sam from Desert Outdoor Lighting. Every year around the holidays I get asked the same thing: “Do you guys also do Christmas lights?” The answer is yes, we do, and honestly, it’s one of my favorite services. There’s just something about seeing a house light up at night during December that makes the season feel right.

Now I know a lot of folks try to do it themselves. I’ve done it too. You pull out a big box of tangled lights, half of them don’t work, and next thing you know you’re up on a ladder when you should be inside with your family. That’s why I started offering Christmas Light Installation. It takes the stress off you and makes sure your home looks the way you pictured it without all the headaches.

Why I Think It’s Worth It

I’ll be straight with you. Could you go buy lights and hang them yourself? Of course. But here’s what usually happens:

  • You run short on time or the weather turns cold and you never finish.
  • You end up with broken bulbs or cords that don’t fit your roofline right.
  • Or worse, someone slips off a ladder. I’ve seen it happen.

When my crew installs your lights, you don’t deal with any of that. We use heavy-duty lights, we design it to fit your house, and we handle it from start to finish. If a strand goes out halfway through the season, we’re back out to fix it. You just flip the switch and enjoy.

Making Your House Shine

One thing I really like is that no two houses look the same. Some people want the classic white lights, clean and simple. Others love all the colors, wrapping trees and outlining walkways. I’ve had families tell me exactly what they want, and I’ve had folks just say “make it look nice.” Either way works.

We can outline your roof, light up your front yard, or even wrap big palms if you’ve got them. The whole point of Christmas Light Installation is to make your place feel welcoming and festive. When your family pulls up after a long day, the glow of those lights puts everyone in the holiday mood.

From Start to Finish

Here’s how we handle it:

  • We talk with you about the look you want.
  • My team comes out and installs the lights safely.
  • If anything breaks or goes dark, we fix it.
  • When the season’s over, we take it all down and pack it away.

It’s really that simple. No storage bins crammed in your garage, no climbing ladders in January when it’s cold out. We take care of it all.

Big or Small, Doesn’t Matter

Whether you live in a smaller place or you’ve got a house with lots of peaks and trees, we can make it work. We’ve done simple rooflines that look sharp, and we’ve done full-yard displays that make cars stop out front to take a look. It’s your call how far you want to go.

Some families like to change it up year to year—one year all white, the next year lots of color. We can adjust the design so it never gets boring.

Why People Call Us

Most of the homeowners who hire us say the same thing: it just saves them time. Instead of wrestling with lights on a Saturday, they’re at their kids’ Christmas play or baking cookies. Plus, they know the job’s done right. Straight lines, no sagging cords, everything glowing bright.

And honestly, it’s fun for us too. My guys like driving around town in December and pointing out the houses we lit up. It’s a good feeling.

Let’s Light Up Your Holidays

If you’ve been putting off hanging your lights or you just don’t want the hassle this year, give us a call. I’ll come by, we’ll put a plan together, and my crew will handle the rest.
