Seasonal lighting for St. Thomas

St. Thomas leans into the season with the Santa Claus Parade on Talbot Street and decorated homes around Pinafore Park. The downtown streets near the Jumbo statue get busy every December. Our C9 service gives your house a classic big-bulb roofline that fits right in. We do the ladder work, the clips and the timer setup so you do not have to.

Our crew installs C9 lights in St. Thomas through October and November and returns in January for removal. You can rent the lights so there is nothing to store between seasons, or buy them and keep the set for future years. Either option includes professional install and takedown, so your roof stays safe and your weekends stay free. We size every set to your roofline.

Early-bird booking closes September 30. Reserve before then to lock in your price and choose your install dates before November fills up. Homes in Lake Margaret and Shaw Valley often book together, which helps us run an efficient route from Woodstock. Later bookings are welcome, but date choices narrow quickly. Call 519-266-6796 or send a quote request to get started.

St. Thomas neighbourhoods we serve

Downtown Talbot Street, Pinafore Park area, Lake Margaret, Shaw Valley, Orchard Park, Lynhurst and the surrounding area. St. Thomas has tall brick homes from its railway boom years near downtown, plus growing subdivisions like Lake Margaret and Shaw Valley with lower, longer rooflines.

Commercial holiday lighting in St. Thomas

Downtown St. Thomas along Talbot Street has heritage commercial blocks that suit permanent LED outlining, and the area around the railway museum draws visitors year-round. We also light plazas, churches and municipal buildings. Programmable scenes let businesses and the BIA coordinate colours for festivals, holidays and community events without hanging temporary lights every season. Learn about our commercial service.

Why seasonal with us

Classic Look, Zero Ladder Work

The classic look. None of the ladder work.

Commercial-grade C9, not big-box strings

Heavy LED C9 bulbs on commercial wire, cut and built to your rooflines. They hold colour, survive the wind, and won't leave you with a dead third of a run in December.

Install, service, takedown, storage

One price covers the whole cycle. We hang it in the fall, come back if anything fails mid-season, then remove and store everything in January.

Custom-fit to your roofline

Runs are measured and built for your house rather than stretched from a fixed-length box, so lines are straight, spacing is even and there's no sagging or doubling back.

In-season service included

If a run goes dark in the middle of December, you call and we come out. You're not on a ladder in the snow trying to find the bad bulb.

Nothing to store

On the rental plan we take everything away and store it. No bins in the garage, no untangling next November.

Clean removal

Clips come off with the lights. No staples left in your fascia, no adhesive marks, no holes to fill in the spring.

The process

How it works in St. Thomas

Book, measure, install, enjoy, takedown.

1
Book early
Book before the calendar fills
Send the form or call. The earliest bookings get the season's best pricing and first pick of install dates — the fall calendar fills fast.
2
We measure and design
We walk the property, measure every run, and plan the layout — rooflines, peaks, columns, trees and walkways — then give you a firm per-season price.
3
Installation in the fall
Crews install in October and November so you're lit for the season. Everything is custom-cut and clipped, with timers set to whatever schedule you want.
4
Takedown and storage in January
We come back, take everything down cleanly, and — on the rental plan — store it until next season. Rebooking is a phone call.

St. Thomas FAQ

Questions from St. Thomas homeowners

Do you service Lake Margaret and Shaw Valley?

Yes. Both are regular stops for us, along with Orchard Park, Lynhurst and the older streets near downtown. Newer subdivisions often have similar rooflines, so neighbours sometimes book demos the same week and get to see the system lit side by side on their street.

How soon can you install in St. Thomas?

St. Thomas is about 40 minutes from our shop. Demos can usually be booked within a week or two, and installs follow soon after you approve, taking one or two days. Fall is the busiest season, so reaching out in summer gives you the most flexibility.

Will freezing rain off Lake Erie affect the system?

No. Freezing rain and wet snow are common this close to the lake, but the LEDs are IP67 sealed, the track is rust-free aluminum, and the system is rated to −40°C. Ice may coat the track briefly, but it will not damage the lights or connections.

When should I book Christmas light installation?

As early as you can — ideally summer or early fall. Installation runs through October and November and the calendar fills from the outside in, so the earliest bookings get the season's best pricing and first pick of dates. Leaving it to late November usually means limited availability.

Do I buy the lights or do you?

Either. On the rental plan we own, install, remove and store the lights, and you pay one per-season price. On the buy plan you purchase the custom-built C9 sets outright as a one-time cost and then pay only for install and takedown each year. We'll show you both numbers at the quote.

Is takedown included?

Yes — takedown in January is part of every plan. On the rental plan we also store everything through the off-season, so there's nothing in your garage.
