Christmas lights in Bloomington
Professional Christmas light installers in Bloomington
Bloomington's east side has some of the biggest, most detailed homes in Central Illinois: the brick two-stories of Hawthorne and Fox Creek, the creek-lot estates of The Grove on Kickapoo Creek, the golf-course homes of Wittenberg Woods and Eagle Crest. Those rooflines were designed to be seen, and warm white C9s along every gable, dormer and porch roof is the look that defines those neighborhoods in December.
Bloomington is about 55 minutes up I-74 from our Champaign base, and we have enough work in Bloomington-Normal to run dedicated install days there through the season. The historic homes of Founders' Grove and the David Davis Mansion area get the same attention: careful clip selection for original trim and lines routed around century-old trees.
Whether you're looking for a Christmas light company, a Christmas light hanging service or full holiday light installation, every Bloomington install follows our five-step full-service process: we design the layout for your home, install commercial-grade LED C9 lights on custom-cut lines with roof-safe clips, maintain the display at no charge all season, take it down in January, and store it until next year.

Local knowledge
We know Bloomington's homes
Hawthorne, Fox Creek and Eagle Crest are where the full-outline C9 display is at home: multiple front gables, stone entries and long garage rooflines that take hundreds of feet of custom-cut line. In The Grove on Kickapoo Creek and Wittenberg Woods, the mature trees on creek and golf-course lots are part of the design, with trunk wraps and canopy uplighting. Founders' Grove and the streets around the country club have Victorian, Prairie and Tudor homes where bulb spacing follows ornate eaves and porch rails get garland. On the west and south sides, mid-century ranches look best with a single clean roofline and lit shrubs.
Weather note for Bloomington: Bloomington sits higher and more exposed than Champaign, and its east-side subdivisions take winter wind straight off the prairie. We use tighter clip spacing on those rooflines and route lines clear of the mature trees in the historic districts.

Our lights were amazing. Lights were done quickly and efficiently. When the season was over he was back to take them down just when he said he would. We have had him put our lights up for several years and will continue to! Highly recommended.

We just had our lights installed by Midwest Holiday Lighting on Thanksgiving day. We just called them and let them know we would like them to do our light install and they worked us in quickly. They were very friendly, knowledgeable, courteous, and patient. We love the holiday lighting they installed on our house and will use them for years to come. They provided all the materials, completed the install quickly, and will store the lights for us during the off season. I added the wreath last minute and they had all the supplies to install it. We could not be happier with Tom and his crew and the job they did installing our lights. Thank You Midwest Holiday Lighting for making our holidays feel more merry and our home look brighter! Enjoy!
