What we do
Full-service holiday lighting, start to finish
Two ways to work together — both include design, install, service, takedown, and storage.

Why it looks different
Every strand is measured and cut to your roof
Store-bought lights come in fixed lengths, so they end up stretched tight in one spot and drooping in another. Every run here is measured on your house and cut to that exact length — so the spacing stays even, the corners turn square, and the line follows your roof instead of sagging away from it.
Peaks get lit. Columns get wrapped. Cords get hidden and timers get set, so the display comes on by itself every evening and you never think about it again.

How it works
Four steps, and you are done thinking about it
Free design consult
A walk of your property to look at rooflines, peaks, columns, and trees, with real light samples so you can see the options in person.
Your design & price
You get a specific design for your home and an exact price for the season. Nothing is ordered and nothing is owed until you say yes.
Installation
Installs begin October 1. Lights are cut to fit, cords are hidden, timers are set, and the display is tested before anyone leaves.
Service & takedown
Anything that needs attention gets fixed during the season. In January it all comes down, gets labeled, and is stored until next year.

Pricing
How much does Christmas light installation cost in Tallahassee?
Christmas light installation starts at $1,000 for the season, all-inclusive — design, lights, installation, mid-season service, January takedown, and storage. What moves the number is roofline length, roof height, and how many peaks, columns, and trees you want lit.
You get an exact price in writing after the design walk. There is no charge for the consultation and no obligation to book.

Questions homeowners ask
How much does Christmas light installation cost in Tallahassee?
Professional Christmas light installation with ShipShape Exteriors starts at $1,000 for the season, and that price is all-inclusive: design, commercial-grade LEDs, installation, mid-season service, January takedown, and storage until next year. Final price depends on roofline length, roof height, and how many peaks, columns, and trees you want lit.
When should I book Christmas lights for this season?
Book as early as you can. Installations begin October 1 and the schedule fills from the earliest bookings down, so booking early is how you control your install date rather than taking what is left. Thanksgiving week is the first block to fill every year.
Do I need to buy the lights?
No. Commercial-grade LED lights, clips, timers, and cords are all included and are cut to fit your roofline. They stay with ShipShape Exteriors between seasons, get stored properly, and are inspected before they go back up — so you are not storing boxes of tangled strands in your garage.
Will anything be nailed or stapled to my house?
No. Nothing is nailed, stapled, screwed, or glued to your home. Non-penetrating clips sized to each surface hold the lights on shingles, gutters, and fascia, and everything is removed completely in January without leaving marks.
What happens if a section goes out mid-season?
Call or text and it gets fixed. Mid-season service is included in the price for the whole season — a dark section, a loose run after a storm, or a timer that drifted are all covered with no extra charge.
Do you take the lights down and store them?
Yes. Everything comes down in January, gets labeled and coiled by section, and is stored until next season. Takedown and storage are included in the season price, not billed separately at the end.
