Bucket trucks, not ladders.
Two-story rooflines, tall trees, storefronts and office parks. Licensed electricians hang the lights, power them safely, and take them down in January.
Rooflines, peaks and the trees nobody else will climb.
Clean lines along the roof edge and peaks, wrapped trunks, lit canopies on tall trees, wreaths and garland on the entry. The bucket truck reaches the second-story ridge and the 40-foot maple without a ladder on your gutters. A licensed electrician adds the outdoor outlet, GFCI protection and timer if the house doesn't have them, so nothing runs off an extension cord through a window.
Storefronts, shopping centers, office parks.
Facade outlines, parking-lot trees, entry monuments and canopy lighting at a scale a landscaper's crew can't reach or power safely. We tie into the building's electrical system correctly, on dedicated circuits with photocell or timer control, and schedule takedown for January so your property looks right through the season and clean after it. Multi-property owners and HOAs get one contact and one invoice.
How much does professional Christmas light installation cost?
A roofline package on a two-story home in Macomb County typically runs $500 to $3,600, roughly $5 to $12 per linear foot depending on roof complexity, height and whether trees are included. Single-story homes start lower; commercial buildings and parking-lot displays are quoted by the property.
The price covers design, installation from the bucket truck, the power connection, and takedown in January; lights and clips are quoted alongside it, supplied by us or reusing yours. You'll get one written number after a free estimate, and it doesn't change after the truck shows up.
When should I book Christmas light installation?
October. Installs run from early November through early December, and the calendar fills in the order it is booked. Book by mid-October to have lights up before Thanksgiving.
Lights can go up in early November on a mild day and stay dark until you want them on. Waiting for the first snow means waiting for the first cancellation.
Do you take the lights down?
Yes. Takedown is scheduled in January, after the holidays, and is part of the package. Ask about storage when you book if you'd rather not keep the lights yourself.
January is our slowest month, which is why takedown is quick and why a lit display is never left up into February.
Can you do a three-story house or tall trees?
Yes. That is the reason to hire an electrical contractor for this. Bucket trucks reach three-story rooflines, steep peaks and mature trees that ladder crews skip or do badly, and the people in the bucket are licensed electricians.
Wolverine runs bucket trucks year-round for parking lot lighting and pole work. During the holidays the same trucks and crews do the lights.
Who powers all of that safely?
A licensed electrician. Holiday displays fail, trip breakers or start fires for the same few reasons: too many strings on one circuit, no GFCI protection outdoors, and indoor extension cords run outside. We size the circuits, protect them, and put them on a timer or photocell.
If the house or building needs an outdoor outlet or a dedicated circuit for the display, we add it. That outlet is useful for the next ten Decembers too.
Do you do storefronts, shopping centers and office parks?
Yes. Commercial holiday lighting is the natural fit for a contractor that already wires facades and parking lots. Facade outlines, tree wraps in the lot, monument and entry lighting, powered from the building on dedicated circuits, with takedown in January.
Property managers get a written scope, a single point of contact, and the same crew that services the site's lighting the rest of the year. Bids go to the owner, Yousif Mansi.
Do you provide the lights or use mine?
Ask when you call. Commercial-grade LED strings and clips are the standard for a display that survives a Michigan winter and looks the same every night; the office will tell you the current options and whether existing lights can be reused.
