Christmas lights in Danville

Professional Christmas light installers in Danville

Danville is a city of hills, trees and history, which makes it unusual in Central Illinois and great for holiday lighting. The brick two-stories and Tudors near Lincoln Park have steep gables and stone details that a warm white C9 outline brings alive, and the homes around Lake Vermilion and the river valley have wooded lots where wrapped trees and uplighting are half the display.

We serve Danville and Vermilion County from our Champaign base, about 40 minutes east on I-74, with dedicated install days through the season. Every install includes design, commercial-grade lights, free maintenance, January takedown and storage.

Whether you're looking for a Christmas light company, a Christmas light hanging service or full holiday light installation, every Danville 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 Danville's homes

The north side along Vermilion Street has Danville's newer homes, which take a full C9 outline with lit beds. Near Lincoln Park, the historic brick and Tudor homes need bulb spacing that follows ornate eaves, and the mature trees get wrapped. Around Lake Vermilion and the river valley, wooded lots and lake-view rooflines call for tree lighting and sometimes both sides of the house lit. Across the city's many mid-century neighborhoods, a single clean roofline and lit shrubs is the best-value design, and country homes toward Oakwood and Catlin add fence and barn lines.

Weather note for Danville: Danville's river-valley and lakeside homes see more ice and moisture than the prairie towns to the west, and the wooded lots shed limbs and ice after storms. We use sealed sockets and route lines away from overhanging trees.

How it works

How Christmas light installation works in Danville

One call does it all. Here's what happens after you request a quote for your Danville home.

  1. Design

    We visit your home, measure every roofline and tree, and design a layout that fits its architecture. You approve the look before anything goes up.

  2. Install

    Our insured crew installs commercial-grade LED lights with custom-cut lines and clips made for your roof. No staples, no damage, no ladders for you.

  3. Maintain

    A bulb goes out or a storm knocks a line loose? We come fix it, free, all season long. Your display looks perfect every night.

  4. Takedown

    In January we remove everything carefully, inspect each strand, and leave your home exactly as we found it.

  5. Store

    We label and store your lights in our climate-controlled facility until next season. Nothing in your garage or attic.

What homeowners near Danville say

4.9 stars on Google

  • 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.

    Dana Skinner

  • 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!
