Manassas runs two kinds of homes when the holidays come around. There are the older two-story homes around the historic downtown near the train depot, with their steeper rooflines, porches, and detail work, and there are the newer two-story subdivisions off Sudley Road and Liberia Avenue, with clean multi-run rooflines and garage and entry accents. We light both, and every display is planned around the home in front of us.
Winters here get cold, with hard-cold snaps and the occasional snow, so displays go up earlier in the season and those taller downtown roof peaks take real wind and cold strain. We plan around all of that and keep your display secure and looking right straight through the season.
We handle the whole thing start to finish: design, professional-grade lights we supply, installation, in-season monitoring, end-of-season takedown, and climate-controlled storage until next year. Call for a free design consultation on your Manassas home at (434) 268-1159.
We mix light types to the surface, from full rooflines and peaks down to trees, bushes, and railings, so the whole home reads as one design from the street.
We run C9 lights along rooflines, gutter lines, and fascia board peaks, the boldest part of most displays and the part people see first. The older two-story homes near the downtown depot carry steeper rooflines and cornices that make for detailed roofline and peak work.
Larger trees are wrapped or outlined with C9 lights so they hold their shape and brightness against the house.
Bushes and shrubs take net lights that drape evenly for a clean, filled look, and smaller trees and tighter features get mini lights.
Railings, porch details, and smaller accent features are picked out with mini lights to tie the whole display together. The porches and entry details common on the older downtown homes suit this close-in accent work well.
Warm white is the most popular choice by far, and we also offer cool white, red, green, blue, purple, orange, and multicolor.
For safety reasons, some rooflines are best lit from the gutter lines and other secure mounting points, and we use those spots to give you a beautiful, safe result.
We light homes and commercial properties across Manassas with the same full white-glove package on both. We can handle business and commercial properties such as those around the downtown district, with the same full white-glove package on both. The scheduling is what changes.
A few things show up again and again in what our customers tell us. They are the standards we hold on every job.
We handle everything, start to finish: an in-person design consultation, professional installation, in-season monitoring, end-of-season takedown, and climate-controlled storage of your lights until next year. It’s a true white-glove, full-package holiday lighting experience for Manassas homes.
We supply our own professional-grade lights, sourced through Christmas Decor, noticeably higher quality than anything you’d buy in a store. You can see the difference the moment they’re lit.
Our team is trained and certified by Christmas Decor, with hundreds of professional lighting projects behind us. That training shows in every clean, safe, beautifully finished install.
At the end of the season, we take everything down and store your lights in a climate-controlled room, so they’re protected from heat and cold and come back at full strength next year, instead of getting ruined in a garage or attic.
We go out of our way to make sure you don’t just get lights, you get the Christmas joy that comes with them. Our goal is for every client to feel great about the whole process, from design to the moment we turn the lights on.
on the Calendar
From your first call to storing your lights in the off-season, here is exactly how we work.
Call or contact us, and we talk through the process and set up an in-person estimate. We aim to respond to every inquiry within about an hour.
We visit your property, get your input, and map out a custom lighting plan for the whole exterior.
We send an estimate with pictures showing the lights on your home for approval. You can tweak the design however you’d like before anything is installed.
Once approved, we book your installation and our crew installs your display safely, using professional-grade C9, mini, and net lights along with safety harnesses, ladders, and climbing equipment. On the older two-story homes near the downtown depot, we take extra care on the steeper rooflines and porch details, and we secure the display along gutter lines and other safe mounting points where a roof surface calls for it.
We turn the lights on with you at completion, then keep an eye on the display through the season so it stays looking its best.
At the end of the season we take everything down and store your lights in a climate-controlled room so they are ready for next year.
Every display is priced per project from an in-person design consultation, based on the linear footage of C9 line plus trees, bushes, and larger features. The consultation and estimate are free.
A couple of ways to save:
Two promises stand behind every display we install.
1
If a light or string goes out during the holiday season, we’ll come back and fix or replace it, that’s part of our full-package, white-glove service. This covers failures and lines knocked loose by winter storms.
2
If you’re not completely happy, we’ll come back, usually the next day, and make it right until you’re 100% satisfied. We’re fully licensed and insured, so your home and your holidays are in protected hands.
We’re a locally owned lighting company, and we treat every Manassas property like it’s on our own street, from the historic downtown around the depot to the newer subdivisions. As part of that, we donate 2% of our profit to charity, because the place we work in matters to us beyond the job itself.
You’ll find us around the spots that anchor the city:
Most of our work runs through two areas: the older homes and storefronts around the downtown depot, and the newer subdivisions off Sudley Road and Liberia Avenue.
