Christmas lights in Downs
Professional Christmas light installers in Downs
Downs is one of McLean County's fastest-growing villages, with newer subdivisions full of two-stories that take a warm white roofline and lit beds, and an original grid of porches that suits garland. We run Downs on our Bloomington-Normal days, about 48 minutes from Champaign.
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 Downs 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. Want lights without the yearly cycle? See permanent lighting in Downs.

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!
