HOW WE INSTALL
We install from a lift. Nobody walks your roof.
Most installers work off a ladder, which limits what they can safely reach and puts weight and foot traffic on your shingles right before an Ontario winter. We work from a lift — a stable platform at the exact working height. It means straighter lines, faster installs, and nothing pressing on your roof.
Zero roof contact
No one stands on your shingles. No ladder leaning on your gutters.
Protected access
Matting laid where needed. Your driveway and lawn are left exactly as we found them.
One price. Everything included.
Most companies quote you for hanging lights. We handle the entire season.
Seven things other companies charge extra for. We include all of them.
One price. One invoice. No line items for removal or storage.
Custom design & mockup
We measure your rooflines, peaks, trees and entryways, then show you exactly what your home will look like before a single clip goes up.
Commercial-grade LEDs, custom-cut
Professional C9 LED strands cut to the exact length of every run. No store-bought strings, no dangling slack, no gaps three feet short of the corner.
Installed by lift
Professional installation
Installed from a lift, not off your roof. Clips sized to your gutter lip, shingle edge or fascia — never staples, never nails, never screws. Every bulb faces the same direction.
In-season maintenance
If a section goes dark or a strand shifts in a windstorm, we're back out to fix it — free, within 48 hours, all season long.
January takedown
We come back after the holidays and remove everything cleanly, including every clip.
Off-season storage
Your display goes back to our warehouse labelled and tested. Nothing takes up space in your garage.
Timers & power, handled
Outdoor-rated timers so your display comes on at dusk automatically, weatherproofed connections, GFCI-protected power and load balanced across circuits.
Everything above is included in your quoted price — nothing on this page is an upsell.

Why our lines look straight and everyone else's don't
The difference between a display that looks designed and one that looks draped comes down to two things: the product, and the cut.
We use commercial-grade C9 LED strands — heavier gauge, sealed sockets, reinforced connectors, rated for Ontario winters. Not the fixed-length strings sold in big-box stores.
Then we measure every single run on your home — every gable, dormer, valley and return — and cut each strand to that exact length before it goes up. No slack bunched at a corner. No strand dying out three feet short of the edge. No extension cords stretched across a roofline.
That's why the bulbs sit evenly spaced, why every socket faces the same direction, and why the line reads clean from the street.
Commercial-grade C9 LED
Cut to your exact roof lines
Colour-matched cord to your trim
Any colour combination you want
Warm white is by far our most requested look — but we'll build any palette you have in mind.
Warm White
The classic. Soft, elegant, and the most requested look in Ancaster and Burlington.
Pure White
Crisp, cool and modern. Pairs beautifully with dark brick and black window trim.
Candy Cane
Alternating red and pure white. Playful without tipping into busy.
Multi-Colour
Red, green, blue and warm white. The nostalgic childhood Christmas look.
Custom Palette
Fully custom combinations. Match your brick, your trim, your business's brand colours, or a scheme you've had in your head for years. If you can describe it, we can build it.
Not sure what suits your home? We'll put a design in front of you before you commit to anything.

How we install — and why it's safer
- We work from a lift, not your roof. Nobody walks your shingles and nobody balances a ladder against your gutters. A lift puts our crew at the exact working height on a stable platform — which means straighter lines, faster installs, and no foot traffic on a roof about to go through an Ontario winter.
- We reach what ladder crews can't. Three-storey peaks, dormers, steep valleys and mature tree canopies are all in range. If another company told you part of your home couldn't be lit safely, ask us.
- We protect your driveway and lawn. The lift is set up on protective matting where needed, and we plan access before the truck arrives so nothing gets marked or rutted.
- Clips only — zero penetration. We never put a staple, nail or screw into your fascia, trim or shingles. A screw hole in fascia board is a water path you won't notice until it's expensive.
- Certified lights, certified power. Every light carries a CSA, cUL or cETL certification mark recognized in Ontario. Connections are weatherproofed, power is GFCI-protected, and load is balanced across circuits.
- Fully insured crews. Trained for winter work, steep pitches and cold-weather equipment handling. Certificate available on request.
- Unsafe weather means we reschedule, free. We won't put a crew up in freezing rain or high wind, and we won't rush an install that ends up looking rushed.

“We'd been doing it ourselves for eleven years. The first year Antoine Landscape Contractors did it, my wife cried a little. It looked like a magazine.”

“A bulb section went out the week before Christmas. I texted them at 8pm and it was fixed the next morning. That's the whole reason we rebooked.”

Christmas light installation FAQ
Most Hamilton-area homes land between $749 and $2,200 for the season. A single-storey bungalow front roofline typically runs $749–$1,100; a two-storey home with peaks and gables typically runs $1,195–$1,800; larger properties with tree wrapping and walkway lighting run $2,200 and up. Every quote includes the lights, installation, in-season service, January takedown and off-season storage. Returning customers save roughly 40% in year two.
Design, commercial-grade C9 LED lights custom-cut to your home, professional installation, outdoor timers, all in-season repairs, January takedown, and off-season storage. There are no separate line items for removal or storage.
We supply and retain the lights as part of the all-inclusive service. That's why year two is significantly cheaper — you're no longer paying for materials — and why you never have to store or replace anything.
Book in September or early October. Install dates across Hamilton and Halton fill through October, and booking early gets you first pick. November is the ideal month to actually have the lights installed — the weather is still workable, and your display is up and ready well before December.
Installations run from roughly October 20 through December 15, with November being the ideal window. Takedown begins in January. Lights can go up early without being on — your timer controls when the display actually starts.
No. We use clips sized to your specific gutter lip, shingle edge or fascia. We never use staples, nails or screws. A screw hole in fascia board becomes a water path, and that damage usually isn't visible until it's expensive.
We don't. Retail strands are fixed-length, can't be cut to fit a roofline cleanly, and fail in ways we can't warranty. We only install our own commercial-grade product so we can stand behind the result.
Let us know and we'll be out within 48 hours to fix it, at no charge, any time during the season. In-season service is part of the price, not an add-on.
No. As long as our crew has access to the exterior of the property and an outdoor outlet, you don't need to be there.
Yes. We wrap trunks and canopies, light shrubs and hedges, run stake lighting along walkways and garden beds, and install wreaths and garland. Tree work is quoted per tree since it's time-intensive.
Yes. We install across Hamilton, Hamilton Mountain, Ancaster, Dundas, Stoney Creek, Waterdown, Binbrook, Flamborough, Burlington, Aldershot and Oakville.
Yes — we carry full liability insurance and our crews are trained for steep pitches and icy Ontario rooflines. We're happy to provide a certificate on request.
Every light we install carries a CSA, cUL or cETL certification mark recognized in Ontario. Connections are weatherproofed, power is GFCI-protected, and load is balanced across circuits so nothing is overloaded.
Warm white, pure white, candy cane, classic multi-colour, or a fully custom palette. We'll show you a design based on your home's brick, trim and architecture before you commit.
Yes. Storefronts, plazas, condo and townhome complexes, dealerships, churches, schools and office entrances. Commercial work is custom quoted — call (647) 459-7775 or use the form.
We reschedule at no cost. We won't put a crew on an icy roof, and we won't rush an install that ends up looking rushed.
A lift. It keeps our crew off your roof, gets us safely to three-storey peaks, dormers and tall trees, and produces straighter, more consistent lines than ladder work. We set up on protective matting where needed so your driveway and lawn are left exactly as we found them.
Make yours the house people slow down for.
Free quote, fixed price, and you never touch a ladder.
