Included in Every Colleyville Install
We supply the product and the labor. You choose what gets lit.
01
Custom layout
Colleyville homes vary from 1990s brick traditionals to newer custom builds, so we draw each layout around your own gables, porch and trees.
04
Help when a strand fails
Repairs during the season are part of the service. One call to the office during weekday hours schedules the fix.
02
Leased LED strands
Commercial-grade LED is cut to the exact length of each roofline, then leased to you for the season, so there is nothing to buy.
05
Removal in January
The crew returns after the holidays, generally early in January, to take the whole display down and clear every clip.
03
Tree and yard lighting
Large lots often hold several mature oaks or pecans. Trunk wraps, canopy lighting and lit hedges add depth that a roofline alone cannot.
06
Kept for next year
Strands are tagged for your house and stored off site, so the following season goes up quickly from the same cut pieces.
Large-Lot Living and What It Means for Your Display
Colleyville's comprehensive plan caps residential density at 1.8 homes per acre, and its single-family zoning districts run from R-15 up through R-40 and estate zoning. In practice that means wide frontages, generous side yards and houses set back behind lawns and trees. Subdivisions such as Highland Meadows, finished around 1994, and Ross Downs Estates, built out by about 1997, have homes averaging roughly 3,000 to 3,500 square feet, while Remington Park and Montclair Parc, completed in the 2000s, have larger homes, with Montclair Parc averaging more than 7,000 square feet.
Wide lots give a display room to breathe. Instead of outlining every edge, we usually light the roofline that faces the street, then use the yard: wrapped trunks on the largest trees, a lit bed along the front walk and wreaths on upper windows. On deep lots, lighting the trees between the street and the house carries the look forward so it reads from the road.

From First Call to Takedown in Colleyville
01
Measure the home
We visit, measure the roofline and trees, find exterior outlets and ask about your HOA or gate access.
02
Approve the plan
A written design and proposal follow. Adjust the tree count, color or entry pieces until it looks right to you.
03
Installation
Our insured crew installs on the scheduled day. Leave outlets reachable and side gates unlocked, and you are free to be at work.
04
Season-long upkeep
Timers keep the display running each evening. If a section goes out, we come back to repair it after you call.
05
Removal and storage
After the holidays we take it all down, pack it under your name and store it until next fall.
Colleyville Neighborhoods We Light
Colleyville's subdivisions are smaller than master-planned communities elsewhere, and each has its own lot size and character. Neighbors in nearby cities can visit our pages on residential lighting in Southlake and home Christmas lights in Bedford.
Montclair Parc
A guard-gated enclave of about 74 large homes on heavily treed lots, finished around 2004. Big trees screen part of each facade, so we light the gables that show between the branches and wrap the trees themselves.
Ross Downs Estates
One of the larger subdivisions in the city, with about 328 homes built out by 1997 around a lake, park and jogging path. Homes here light cleanly along the main eave, and front-yard trees that have grown for nearly 30 years take generous wraps.
The Bluffs and Caldwell's Creek
The Bluffs offers gated estate homesites for new custom houses, while Caldwell's Creek includes single-family streets and a villa section. New builds often have the steepest roofs in town, and we plan access and clip types for each pitch. For path and accent lighting that stays up all year, see our Colleyville landscape lighting.
Remington Park
Roughly 115 homes completed around 2006, with a clubhouse, pond and park. Two-story facades with multiple gables suit a full front outline, with wreaths on the upstairs windows to fill the upper wall.
Highland Meadows
A small subdivision of about 31 homes completed around 1994, with its own park. The compact street makes coordinated looks easy if neighbors want matching warm white or a shared color theme.
Warm White on the Boulevard, Rules in the Neighborhoods
Colleyville has its own holiday look. The city funds a grant that helps businesses along Colleyville Boulevard light their buildings in warm white with large bulbs and no flashing or color-changing effects, and it has been wrapping more of the median trees each year. Homeowners near State Highway 26 often echo that classic style, though your own house can be any color you like. Our ideas on current Christmas lighting trends cover both classic and colorful looks.
Inside the neighborhoods, associations often set the rules. Montclair Parc has a guard-gated entrance and heavily treed lots, Remington Park has a clubhouse and pond, and Ross Downs Estates has a lake, a jogging path and a park. Several have architectural guidelines that address display dates or placement. Share yours and we will plan around them; our Colleyville HOA holiday lighting page explains how we work with boards on entrances and common areas.
Classic warm white with C9 bulbs available
Multicolor or mixed schemes if you prefer
Guard-gate access arranged before install
Association dates checked before scheduling
No yard pieces placed in common areas
How We Build a Colleyville Quote
Pricing comes from your measurements and your choices, not a menu. These are the main inputs.
Length of lit roofline
The number of feet you want outlined is the biggest single input. Front-only plans are lighter than wrapping every side of a wide home.
Bulb size and color
Large C9 bulbs in warm white, mini lights, or multicolor each use different strands and layouts.
Height and roof shape
Tall two-story walls and steep custom-home pitches take more rigging and crew time than a single-story eave.
Garland, wreaths and ground lighting
Entry garland, window wreaths and lit walkway pieces are listed line by line so you can keep or remove each.
Mature trees
Colleyville's big oaks and pecans can take many strands each. The quote rises with trunk size, limb height and whether you want the canopy lit.

Colleyville Christmas Lighting FAQs
Have a question we didn’t cover? Call 972-620-9560 or request a free quote online.
Do you install Christmas lights on homes in Colleyville?
–
Yes. We light houses across Colleyville's 76034 ZIP code, including Montclair Parc, Remington Park, Ross Downs Estates, Highland Meadows and the custom-home streets in between. For businesses and boulevard properties, see our Christmas lighting for Colleyville.
Is it better to lease seasonal lights or buy permanent ones?
–
Our seasonal service is a lease: we supply, hang, maintain, remove and store the lights, and you own nothing. Permanent track lighting is a different product that stays mounted all year; if that interests you, read about permanent lights for Colleyville houses. Gated communities may have rules on permanent fixtures, so check before choosing.
When should I schedule a Colleyville installation?
–
Reach out in late summer or early fall. Installs generally begin in early November, and the schedule fills from the earliest requests. Homes with several large trees take longer, so early booking helps you get the date you want.
When will the crew remove my display?
–
We return after the holidays, typically in the first part of January. Every strand and clip comes off, the display is labeled for your house, and it goes into storage at our facility.
Does my Colleyville HOA have to sign off?
–
It depends on your association. Some Colleyville HOAs address display dates or placement, and gated communities like Montclair Parc require entry arrangements. Send the guidelines and we will design within them before anything goes up. Our residential Christmas light installation overview describes the service from start to finish.
Will the crew put holes in my roof or gutters?
–
No. We attach with clips that slide onto gutters, shingle edges and ridges, and we never nail or staple into the roof or trim. When the lights come down, the clips come off with them.
How do timers and outlets work?
–
Lights plug into your exterior outlets, and we add timers so they turn on at dusk and off at the time you pick. On large homes we spread the load across circuits, and if an outlet is not working, we let you know before install day.
Can you match the warm white look on Colleyville Boulevard?
–
Yes. Many homeowners like the large warm white bulbs the boulevard uses, and we can cut C9 strands for your roofline in the same style. If you prefer color, we can do that too; the city's grant guidelines apply to businesses, not to your house.
