Every house is different and we are happy to give you a free estimate to install lights. Just follow this link and fill in your information and we will send you an estimate in the next couple days. Take down is half of the install fee and is billed separately. Our estimates include all the materials you need (customized LED lights, extension cords, clips, and timers). Please fill out our free estimate form for your customized estimate.
The first year is the most expensive, getting all the materials to get started, after that you just pay for labor and maintenance on the lights. We won’t send you any emails that don’t pertain specifically to you.
We prefer to supply you with all the lights and materials so that we know you are getting the best materials available, that will last the longest and look the best, but if you already have lights we are happy to install what you have. If you fill out our free estimate form, just make sure you make a note if you will be providing your own lights. We will email you back with an estimate within a couple days. We supply all LED commercial grade Christmas Lights.
Yes! We install the lights and take them down as well. Both services are billed separately to help spread cost around the holidays (take down is ½ the price of the installation, except for trees and some special installations). We want you to focus on the holidays and enjoying your family and friends. Our mission is to make things as easy on you as possible. All you should have to do it make sure your lights are out for us on the install day (if we are installing your old lights) and that you have your storage bins out on the day we are scheduled to take them down.
Once the service is completed we will email you an invoice within the next day with a link to pay by credit card online. In respect for the holiday season we ask that invoices be paid within 15 days of receiving the email to avoid late payment penalties. If you have a strong preference away from online payment, there is onfo on how to pay by check in the emailed invoice.
You keep all the materials. We want you to continue to use our service year after year because you want to, not because we have your Christmas light investment in our possession. Take down is billed separately and except for in special cases (tree lights and special installations) is ½ price of the install labor. We just ask that on the day you schedule to take the lights down that you have your preferred storage bin placed out so that we can best store your lights in a clean and organized way.
For the best price, fastest service, and to help respect the environment we have stock of commercial grade C9 LED lights in warm white, multi-colored, red/Warm white (warm white best resembles the traditional incandescent Christmas lights). The lights that we install are the product that we feel most confident selling you after our 10 years of experience hanging Christmas lights.
No, both, Brian and Neil, are full time professional firefighters for the City of Seattle. They started the job while in college at UW and playing semi-professional baseball for the Seattle Studs. We both had the fortune to earn jobs in Seattle and we continue installing lights because we have so much fun hanging lights together and getting emails from happy customer with pictures of their Christmas lights. We find it nice having an excuse to be outside on rainy November days, and of course spreading holiday cheer.
Because Brian and Neil both have full time jobs, Neil has a wife and two active young sons, we try to keep the extra work limited to the Christmas season. We are not opposed to discussing off-season projects, but chances of us being available are not likely. Feel free to ask if you have a project.
One of the us, Brian or Neil, will try to be on every job that is installed to ensure high quality installation and customer service. If we are not able to be the installers, we will make sure that the workers that come out provide the same quality of work and the same level of customer service.
Our regular schedule takes us to Seattle, Bellevue, & Newcastle. We do install in other areas, but ask that you give us some advance notice so that we can work with our regular installation routes.
We have been having fun installing Christmas lights for eleven years!
Yes!
Insurance: We want to make sure that you feel safe and confident on the rare occasion that an accident should happen, and we keep up with modern insurance requirements.
Licensing: Both of us have travelled and volunteered around the world and though we accept that our country is not perfect, we believe that we are fortunate to live within the systems we have and providing the security and structure of our licensing system is important to us.
Trust us, we want to have an accident less than you do. We are firefighters, rock climber/mountaineers and practice using ladders, harnesses, and best communication practices on all of our jobs to make sure that we make it home safe at the end of the day and to make sure that we care for your property and respect your security.
You can schedule by following this SCHEDULE link or by sending us an email to ProLightsBrian@gmail.com. New customers can submit a new customer intake form
No! If you have lights from previous years, just make sure that they are made available for us on the day of installation. New customers, worry not, we will bring everything we need, you wont even have to bend over to plug in the lights (they will be on a timer). When you schedule online, the times are not exact because we shuffle them around to make the best route for the day. If you want to be home for the installation please send us a message to let us know and we will make sure to communicate our schedule for your installation.
We start to take down lights the first week day after the New Year and take down through January. Because all of the ladders will be stored away after that, take downs after February 1st, will have any extra $50 convenience fee. And keep in mind that take down is billed separate from install.
Our expectation is that your lights will operate throughout the season without issues caused by rain or storms. We are talking about a strand of lights not working or a timer failing, not a bulb burning out (that is out of our control). If something does arise, please contact us ASAP and we will get out there within the next 2 days to get them back up and running. If the issue was caused by something outside of our control ie the lights have been tampered with or branches fall on the lights and knock the off, then there is a $50 service fee for those trips.
We work to provide the best products with the best service, though we are still talking about Christmas lights and they still occasionally have issues. For first year lights, we will guarantee that all the bulbs will stay lit through the first season. If any bulbs burn out, please let us know ASAP so that we can keep the looking great! If the lights are from a previous year, then we can only guarantee them for the day of installation. Any visits after that will be $50 + $5 per bulb. It’s best for everyone if you let us know ASAP so that we have the best chance of getting your lights operating properly.
