Included with every install

Your display should look perfect every night, not just install night

Anyone can hang lights in November. The difference is what happens on December 18th when a section goes dark two days before your party. With Midwest Holiday Lighting, you text us a photo and we come fix it, usually within a day, at no charge. That is included with every residential install, every season.

Because we use commercial-grade LED lines with replaceable bulbs and sealed sockets, repairs are fast: swap a bulb, reseat a connection, re-clip a line the wind lifted. And because we installed it, we know exactly how it was routed and where the power runs.

What Central Illinois winters do to Christmas lights

Between Thanksgiving and New Year's, a Champaign County roofline sees freezing rain, 40 mph prairie wind, a foot of snow sliding off the shingles and a dozen freeze-thaw cycles. Box-store strands fail under that. Our commercial lines hold up, and the maintenance program handles the rest: a clip that let go in a gust, a bulb that took a hit from sliding ice, a GFCI that tripped in a downpour.

We also do a mid-season drive-by on our routes. If we spot a dark section on a home we installed, we often fix it before the homeowner notices.

How to request a maintenance visit

Text or call (217) 851-1102 with your address and, if you can, a photo of the issue. We schedule you on the next route through your area, typically within one business day. There is no charge and no paperwork.

How it works

Our full-service process. You never touch a thing.

Five steps, one phone call. We handle every part of your holiday lighting from the first sketch to off-season storage.

  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 Central Illinois homeowners 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!
