Professional Christmas Light Installation in Dallas–Fort Worth

Somewhere around Thanksgiving, half of Dallas–Fort Worth ends up on a ladder in the cold, untangling last year's strands and hoping the middle third still lights up. It doesn't have to be your house. Our full-service holiday lighting turns your home into the one people slow down to look at — and you never touch a strand, a clip, or a ladder. We design it, install it, keep it running all season, take it down in January, and store it for you until next year.

This is the same crew that soft-washes roofs and pressure-washes driveways across the metroplex. We're comfortable on North Texas rooflines, we're licensed and insured, and we've spent more than a decade working at height on homes in Plano, Frisco, McKinney, Allen, Richardson, Carrollton, Dallas, and Fort Worth. Hanging lights safely and cleanly is squarely in our wheelhouse.

What full-service holiday lighting includes

Most homeowners don't want a box of lights dropped off — they want the whole thing handled. That's exactly what we do. A complete package covers the entire lifecycle so nothing ever lands back on your plate:

• Custom design mapped to your rooflines, peaks, columns, trees, shrubs, and entryway
• Professional-grade lights and materials provided by us — commercial C9 and mini-LED strands that match in color and brightness and actually survive a North Texas season
• Full installation — every strand measured, cut to fit each run, clipped cleanly, and powered correctly with hidden cords
• In-season maintenance — if a bulb or strand goes dark, we come back out and fix it, no charge
• Takedown after the holidays — usually early-to-mid January, so you're not the last house on the block still lit
• Off-season storage — everything labeled to your home and stored by us, so your attic stays empty and next year's install is even faster

That last piece is the quiet luxury. Come December you flip a switch; come January it all disappears. No tangled tubs in the garage, no cheap strands dying between seasons.

Why hire it out in North Texas

You stay off the ladder — and the roof. Hanging lights means hours reaching over gutters and steep pitches, usually after the first cold front has rolled through. Holiday-decorating falls send people to the ER every single year. Our crews carry the equipment, the training, and the liability insurance to do it safely, so the riskiest chore of the season simply isn't yours anymore.

It looks designed, not draped. There's a real difference between lights that are hung and lights that are engineered to the house. We measure each roofline and cut strands to fit exactly — no gaps, no doubled-up dark spots, no orange extension cord stretched across the porch. The result is clean and intentional, the kind of curb appeal that holds up even in HOA-conscious neighborhoods around Frisco, Prosper, and Highland Park where a sloppy display gets noticed.

It fits DFW weather. Our lights and clips are rated for the swings we get here — a 75-degree afternoon followed by a hard freeze and the occasional ice event. Commercial-grade LEDs draw less power, run cooler, and shrug off the humidity and temperature whiplash that kills the cheap big-box strands by their second season.

What we light up

We're not limited to the roofline. A great display layers a few elements so the whole property reads as one designed scene:

• Rooflines and peaks — the crisp, even outline that defines the house
• Wrapped trees and trunks — oaks, crepe myrtles, and landscape trees wrapped for depth
• Landscape and pathway lighting — shrubs, flower beds, and walkway edges
• Columns, railings, and entryways — the front-door moment guests see up close
• Wreaths and garland — lit wreaths, doorway garland, and mailbox accents
• Timers and controls — set-and-forget timers so it comes on at dusk without you thinking about it

Our process, start to finish

We keep it simple and low-pressure. Here's how a season goes:

1. Free design consult and quote. We walk the property (or review photos), talk through the look you want, measure runs, and give you a firm written quote.
2. You reserve your date. A deposit locks your spot on the install calendar — this matters more than people expect, which we'll get to below.
3. Installation. Our crew installs everything in a single visit, tucks the cords, sets your timer, and does a full test with you before we leave.
4. All-season support. Anything goes dark, we come fix it. You just enjoy the display.
5. Takedown and storage. After the holidays we pull it all down, label it to your home, and store it until next year.

Pricing and what affects it

Every home is different, so there's no one-size-fits-all price list — the look you want, the size of your rooflines, and how much you light all shape the number. That's why we quote every job with a free, no-obligation on-site visit (or a quick photo review). You get one clear, firm price up front, with in-season maintenance and takedown-plus-storage built into most packages, so there are no surprises later.

Package scope	What it covers
Basic roofline outline (single-story)	A crisp, even outline along the main roofline
Roofline plus a few wrapped trees or entryway	Roofline outline with a handful of accent elements
Full designed display (roofline, trees, landscape, wreaths)	A layered scene across the whole property
In-season maintenance	Included
Takedown and off-season storage	Included in most packages

What moves the price:

• Linear footage of roofline and how many stories — more run and more height means more product and more time up top.
• Height and pitch. Steep, tall, or hard-to-reach rooflines take extra safety setup.
• How much you light. Roofline-only is the entry point; adding wrapped trees, landscape beds, and lit wreaths builds from there.
• Light type. Warm-white vs. multicolor, C9 vs. mini-LED, and whether you want a fully custom color palette.
• Design complexity — multiple peaks, dormers, and detailed entry work take longer to fit cleanly.

Many clients buy the lights the first year and re-run the same set for a reduced install price in following seasons, since the strands are already cut and labeled to the house. We'll lay that out plainly in your quote — no surprises.

Book early: the calendar fills before the holidays

Here's the practical reason to reach out well before the season. Installation happens in a tight window — roughly late October through November — and it fills fast, in order of who reserved. The homeowners who lock in early get their preferred install dates and first pick of design; the ones who call after Thanksgiving are often too late. Getting on the schedule in summer or early fall also means a relaxed design conversation and, usually, better pricing than the last-minute rush. It costs nothing to get a quote and hold your spot.

Why Summit Surface Solutions

We're an owner-operated exterior-cleaning company that's worked on DFW rooftops for more than ten years, so working at height on your home is routine, not a favor. We're licensed and insured, we show up when we say we will, and we treat your roofline and landscaping like we'd treat our own. A lot of clients pair holiday lighting with a fall house wash and roof soft wash so the home is spotless before it's lit and on display — clean siding and a bright roofline make the lights pop, and doing both in one relationship is easy.
