Christmas Light Installation in Boise: What to Expect

Hiring out your Christmas lights means no ladders, no tangled strands and no January takedown. Here's how it works with Double Take, from your first quote to the day the lights come down.

Two-story house on a snowy night with warm white lights along every roofline, wreaths, garland and lit trees.

1. Your free quote

Tell us what you'd like lit and how big you want to go. We answer every quote request within one business day, with clear pricing and zero pressure to book.

2. A design that fits your home

We measure your roofline and peaks and custom-cut every strand, so the lights fit your home exactly. No extra cords or spare lights hanging off the house, just a clean, polished look.

3. Install day

We arrive on schedule, look over your roofline and trees, then hang and test every strand. Most homes are done in a few hours, and we walk the display with you before we leave.

What's included with every install

  • Bright LED lights that are easy on your power bill.
  • Commercial-grade lights and a weather-ready install built for Idaho winters.
  • Roof-safe clips that grip your roofline without nails, screws or sticky residue, and never pull on your gutters.
  • Every strand tested on install day.
  • Mid-season fixes: if a strand goes dark or the weather knocks something loose, call us and we'll come back to fix it.

4. Takedown and storage

After the holidays, on a date you pick, whether that's right after New Year's or a few weeks later, we take everything down: lights, clips and cords. Takedown and storage are free. We pack your lights up and keep them in our storage unit, organized and ready for next season.

5. Next year is even easier

Every fall we send you a quick text to get your lights back on the schedule, so your home is ready for the holidays without you lifting a finger.

Why not do it yourself?

You can, and plenty of people do. But it means hours on a ladder in the cold, untangling strands, guessing at extension cords, and doing it all again in reverse in January. Falls from ladders and roofs are among the most common holiday decorating injuries. With a professional install, you skip all of it.

When to get your quote

The earlier the better. Install calendars fill up as the holidays get closer, so getting your quote in early gives you the most choice of dates.
