Consultations are complimentary. Before a site visit, we will ask you a few qualifying questions.  Many times, smaller projects can be accurately quoted over the phone, using photos from the web or sent from the client.  Larger projects WILL require a site visit to discuss options and verify accessibility.  

  • Are you insured?

Yes, we carry Workers' Compensation, General Liability, and Auto Insurance, so you know you and your property are protected.

  • Do I own the Lights?

No, you do not own the lights.  Our All-Inclusive Lighting Services provide ALL of the necessary components for a Professional Lighting display. Lights, Extension Cords, Timers, and Fasteners are all provided by 406 Holiday Lighting so we can guarantee Professional Installation and the lights will remain working properly.

The care and inspection of the lights after take down and before installation is EXTREMELY important to their longevity and that of the other components.  As the lights expire, we replace them as necessary, allowing us to guarantee they will stay lit without charging for service calls or to charge for failing lights late in the season.  

  • Will you Install Lights I aready Own?

As we are unable to guarantee the quality, function, color, etc., of the lights you may already have, we will NOT install lights you already own.*

Our service includes the CUSTOM FITTING of COMMERCIAL GRADE wire and bulbs for your home or property.  

Thus, insuring the best quality product, installation, and enjoyment of your lighting display.

*(We will install New Lights Purchased from Action Lighting with referral ONLY)

  • Why Do you Only Install Commercial Grade LED Lights?

We source and install ONLY Commercial Grade wire and LED bulbs.  The quality is unmatched; they are brighter, more durable, and more efficient than the less expensive lights you can purchase from the "Big Box" stores.  If one bulb goes out the remaining will remain lit.

​And NOW, we offer Professional Permanent Lighting Services, using the OMNI RGB Lighting System.  If you are looking for Security, Architectural, and/or Festive lighting year-round, let us show you this UNBELIEVABLE new option!

  • How Much Does a Holiday Lighting Display Cost?

Our All-Inclusive lighting packages are priced according to YOUR specific project. Based upon location, difficulty, and amount of product needed to complete the display, our packages start at $500 local, to well over $10,000 for larger or elaborate displays.

If the lights stop working, we will provide maintenance or repair within 24-48 hours of being notified of the need. This service is included with purchase of each Lighting Package.  If there is excessive damage or vandalism there may additional fees or time needed.

  • When Will the Lights Come Down?

Lights installed for the Christmas/Holiday season begin coming down the first weekday following Jan 1st. We do our best to remove all of the lights by the end of January, however, inclement weather can postpone take down.  Lights installed for other events or Holidays (other times of the year), we be SCHEDULED for removal with the client.

  • Do I need to be Home for the Installation or Take-Down?

No, you do not need to be home for the Installation or Take Down.  The only thing we need is access to power outside. If using Christmas Light Plugs, we would need them to be powered on.  Or if you have a specific timer (wifi or Bluetooth) you want to provide, we would need them set up and left outside for installation.

  • When should I Schedule our Lighting Package?

You should schedule your lighting service ASAP. During the Holiday season, installations start as soon as September and continue into the middle of December. With the season being short and swift, November is the busiest. DO NOT WAIT to schedule! Potential cold/snow/ice can also pose difficulties getting larger projects done during this time.  

  • When do I pay for my Holiday Lighting Package?

A deposit of 50% of quote is REQUIRED at scheduling to secure a Time Slot and Materials. The balance will be due at the time of installation.  The Christmas/Holiday Season is EXTREMELY BUSY and availability is LIMITED.
