See your home lit up before you pay anything
Send us a photo of your house and we'll send back a real mock-up of it with the lights on, usually the same day. Free, no obligation, and nothing is due until you like what you see.
Design Preview
What they sent. What we showed them. What we installed.
One house, one season. The preview came first, before anything was due, and the install matched it.

How It Works
Four steps, and you don't spend anything until the third
Most companies ask you to picture it. We show you.
- 01
Send a photo, or we come out
Text us a picture of your house, or we walk the property with you. Same design either way, and plenty of people never need the house call.
- 02
You see your house with the lights on
A real mock-up of your home, plus the price, usually back the same day. Change the color, add a tree, drop the garland. Nothing is due.
- 03
10% holds your install date
About $200 on a typical $2,000 job, and it comes off your total. We text you the link and it takes thirty seconds. The deposit is what locks your spot on the calendar, so it isn't refundable once your date is held.
- 04
We install, service, take down, and store it
January takedown, free off-season storage, and in-season repairs on us. The 48-Hour Relight: one bulb out, one text, we're there within 48 hours. No charge, all season. You never buy or store a single strand.
Send Us A Photo
Get your mock-up started
One daylight photo of the front of your house is all we need. We'll send back the same house with the lights on, plus the price, free.
Booked means deposit paid, so a deposit in by October 31 locks the 10%.

On-Site Or Virtual
You don't have to schedule a house call
A lot of people are doing this research at nine at night and have no interest in booking a salesperson into their living room. So don鈥檛. Send a photo and we will design from it. If you would rather we walk the property, say the word and we will come out.
- Virtual: send one daylight photo from the street, we do the rest
- On-site: we walk your roofline with you and measure as we go
- Either way you get the same mock-up and the same price
We install from late October through early December, and returning customers claim a good share of that calendar before the season even starts. The ten days before Thanksgiving always go first.
Design Preview FAQ
Questions before you send a photo
- Same day, almost always. Send a photo in the morning and you'll usually have your house lit up on your screen by that evening. Late-night photos come back the next morning.
- Yes. There is no charge and no obligation. We build the mock-up, send it to you, and you decide from there. Plenty of people look at it and say not this year, and that is a completely fine outcome.
- No. That is the point of the virtual option. Send us a photo of your house from the street, by text or email, and we design from that. If you would rather walk the property with us and talk through it in person, we do that too.
- One shot from the street or sidewalk showing the whole front of the house, taken in daylight. Hold the phone level rather than tilting it up, and leave a little room around the edges. If you want trees or the walkway lit, get those in the frame too.
- That is what it is for. Swap warm white for multicolor, add a palm, drop the garland, extend the run over the garage. We adjust and send it back. Nothing is ordered or scheduled until you are happy with it.
- Yes. We'll mock up as many color options as you want on the same photo, as long as they're Christmas colors, like warm white, cool white, multicolor, red and white, red and green, or blue and white. Tell us which ones when you send your photo.
- A 10% deposit holds your install date, which is about $200 on a typical $2,000 job and comes off your total. We text or email you the link and it takes about thirty seconds. Because the deposit is what reserves your spot on the calendar, it isn't refundable once your date is held. Booked means deposit paid, so a deposit in by October 31 locks the 10%.
- Probably not. Our job minimum is $800, which is roughly 100 feet of roofline, and short rooflines are quick for us. If the design comes back over your budget, tell us the number and we will redesign to it.
See your home lit up
Send one photo. We'll send back your house with the lights on, usually the same day, free, with the price beside it.
