Christmas Light Installation

Holiday Lights Done Right for Corona Homes
Corona is mostly tract-built subdivisions, one and two stories with the occasional three-story home, stucco walls under tile roofs. On homes like these, lights look their best when the run follows the architecture instead of fighting it. Done right, the display looks like it belongs on the house.
We handle holiday lighting two ways. Seasonal C9 strings go up for the season and come down when it’s over, with takedown and any in-season service call already built into the price. Permanent app-controlled lighting is the year-round option, mounted to stay and run from your phone. Whichever suits you, Squeegee Guys installs both, and we’ll tell you honestly which one fits your home.

The Holiday Lighting We Install in Corona
We install two kinds of holiday lighting: seasonal strings that go up for the season and come down after, and permanent fixtures that stay on the house all year. Here’s how each one works.
C9 Incandescent Light Strings
The classic strung lights, stapled to the wooden fascia along your roofline and siding, in white, warm white, or standard colors. We run C9 incandescent strings rather than LED on purpose: one failure in an LED run takes the whole line down, while incandescents keep burning and throw a brighter, warmer light. Coverage follows the line of the house, fence to fence across the front or the full perimeter, first story, second story, or both. Corona’s clean, defined rooflines take a strung run particularly well.
Permanent App-Controlled LED Fixtures
The alternative to putting lights up and pulling them down every year. These fixtures stay on the house and run from an app, so you control brightness, on and off timers, colors per bulb, sequences, and full scene displays from your phone. You purchase the fixtures yourself on our recommendation, either Govee or the Govee Pro tier, and we charge for the installation, mounting them with adhesive plus screw plates into the fascia, not adhesive alone, which lets go over time. The whole thing goes in over a single day.
Off-Season Storage for Your Seasonal Lights
When we take your seasonal lights down at the end of the season, we can store them for you rather than handing back a box to find room for in the garage. Your lights get boxed and labeled by address, so the same set comes back to the same house next season, ready to go up without you hunting through the closet for it.
This one is for the seasonal C9 lights. Permanent lighting stays on the house year-round, so there’s nothing to store. If storing your seasonal set sounds useful, mention it when we quote the job and we’ll fold it into the plan.
What Sets Our Corona Holiday Lighting Apart
Beyond getting the lights up cleanly, a few things about how we work are worth knowing before you book.
C9 Bulbs Chosen to Last the Season
The bulb choice is about what you see from the curb in December. A C9 run keeps burning even if one bulb goes, so your display doesn’t drop dark in the middle of the season, and the warmer light reads better against a stucco wall at night. It’s the choice that holds up from the day we hang it to the day we take it down.
Seasonal and Permanent, We Do Both
Some homeowners want lights up for the season and gone by January. Others want an app-controlled display that stays on year-round. Because we install both, you’re not talking to a company that only does one and steers you toward it. Plenty of the homes we light are ones we already know from window work or solar panel cleaning, and we recommend the option that actually fits your home and how you want to use it.
An Honest Quote and Coverage You Choose
We don’t sell you a bespoke light-design package. We come out, look at the house, and quote it in person, then you decide how much of the house to light and in what color. The result looks deliberate because the house itself sets the shape, and you know what you’re paying for before we start.

How Our Christmas Light Installation Works
We quote holiday lighting in person, because the coverage and the roofline decide the price. Here’s how it goes from your first call to the finished display.
STEP
The In-Person Consultation and Quote.
Reach out by call, text, email, or the website form, and your call goes straight to the owner. We come out, talk through what you’re after, look at the property, and recommend a light type and the coverage that suits it, then quote it on the spot. Since we’re already at the house, homeowners often have us look at another job at the same time, like driveway cleaning, and we’ll price that on the same visit. If you’re leaning toward permanent lighting, this is where we recommend the brand and the footage for you to buy.
STEP
Scheduling and Confirmation.
Once you’re happy with the quote, we book your date and confirm ahead of the service day by call, with a text or voicemail as backup. For seasonal work, booking by October means your lights are up well before the holidays.
STEP
Seasonal Install Day, Stringing the Roofline.
On a seasonal install we locate a power outlet, run the extension cabling, and work from one side of the house across, stapling the C9 incandescent strings to the wooden fascia along the roofline and siding with a staple gun, following the coverage you chose. A 25 ft ladder gets us to the second story where the design calls for it.
STEP
Permanent Install Day, Mounting App-Controlled Fixtures.
For permanent lighting, you purchase the recommended fixtures first. Then we run power and test the fixtures before mounting them with adhesive plus screw plates into the fascia. A permanent install runs a single day and finishes with a full walkthrough of the app, so you leave comfortable setting the timers, colors, and scenes yourself.
STEP
In-Season Service, Takedown, and the Finish.
While your seasonal lights are up, a loose staple, a dead run, or a failed bulb is a service call we come back out for, usually the same day or the next. Takedown at the end of the season is included and scheduled around your calendar, and off-season storage is available if you’d rather not keep the lights yourself. We don’t call the job done until you’re happy with how the house looks.
Christmas Light Installation Pricing in Corona
Most seasonal installs fall within a predictable range, and the price is built from the linear footage of roofline and siding you want lit, with takedown and any in-season service already included rather than billed on top.
- Seasonal C9 Installation: $300 to $800, including takedown and in-season service calls. The figure is priced on the linear footage of roofline and siding. The second story costs more than the first for the added effort and safety, and a third story more again, while a single-story home sits around the $300 floor. Takedown at season’s end and any service call you need while the lights are up are already in that price.
- Permanent App-Controlled Lighting: quoted after the in-person consultation. Permanent lighting is priced above the seasonal equivalent, because the fixtures are screw-mounted with adhesive plus plates rather than stapled, and we settle the number at the consultation once we’ve seen the house. You purchase the fixtures yourself on our recommendation, and we charge for the installation.
- Bundling more than one service: if you’re having other work done alongside your lights, like roof cleaning while the ladder’s already out, ask about a bundle discount when you get your estimate.
Our Holiday Lighting Promise
Takedown and In-Season Service, Included
Your holiday install price includes takedown and any service call you need while the lights are up. We try to be back out the same day or the next. That in-season commitment is what stands in place of a formal seasonal warranty, and it’s built into the price rather than sold as an add-on.
100% Satisfaction
We guarantee you’re satisfied. If we’ve missed something, we come back and fix it. If it’s something we genuinely can’t fix, if a run can’t be made to look right on your roofline, we don’t charge you for that portion. We’re not comfortable taking your money for a result you’re not happy with.
On Permanent Lighting, the Hardware Is Manufacturer-Warranted
On permanent lighting, the fixtures themselves are covered by the manufacturer’s warranty, not by us. We stand behind the installation. If a bulb or a controller fails, that’s a manufacturer claim, and we’ll help you make it.
What Customers Say
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you install Christmas lights I already bought?
For seasonal installs, we provide and install the lights ourselves rather than putting up a set you’ve bought elsewhere. That’s how we can stand behind the way the run holds up through the whole season. Permanent lighting works the other way on purpose: there, you purchase the app-controlled fixtures yourself on our brand recommendation, and we install them for you.
Why do you use C9 incandescent bulbs instead of LED strings?
We use C9 incandescent strings because a single failure in an LED run takes the whole line down, while a C9 run keeps going even if one bulb quits. Incandescents also throw a brighter, warmer light. It’s a deliberate choice for reliability and the look, made to hold up over the length of the season.
When do I need to book to have my lights up before the holidays?
Book by October to have seasonal lights installed before the holidays. Scheduling is flexible, but the closer it gets to the season the tighter the calendar, so booking early gets you your preferred date. Permanent lighting is a year-round installation, so it isn’t tied to the seasonal booking window at all.
How is permanent lighting different from a seasonal install?
Seasonal lighting is C9 strings we put up for the season and take down at the end, with that takedown and any in-season service call included in the price. Permanent lighting is app-controlled LED fixtures that stay on the house year-round, and you control brightness, timers, colors per bulb, sequences, and full scene displays from an app. With permanent lighting you buy the fixtures yourself on our recommendation and we install them, mounting with adhesive plus screw plates so they stay put. The hardware carries the manufacturer’s warranty, and we stand behind the installation. Either way you’re dealing with the same crew that handles your windows, panels, and concrete cleaning, so it’s one company across the whole property.
Do you offer custom light designs?
We don’t do custom light design. What we do is follow the lines of your house cleanly, you choose the coverage, either fence to fence across the front or the full perimeter, first story, second story, or both, and you choose white, warm white, or standard colors. The result looks deliberate because the house sets the shape, not because we’ve drawn something bespoke.
