Professional Christmas light installers in Urbana
Urbana is a city of big trees and interesting rooflines. The historic homes around Carle Park and in East Urbana have steep gables, deep porches and brick chimneys that were built to be admired, and the newer streets of Stone Creek and Beringer Commons have the long, multi-peak rooflines that make warm white C9s look like a magazine cover.
We've lit Urbana homes since our first season, and the mix is what we love about it. One day we're outlining a golf-course two-story off Stone Creek Boulevard, the next we're wrapping a 60-year-old oak in a Carle Park front yard and lighting a Tudor's half-timbered gable. Every design is specific to the house, and every install includes maintenance, takedown and storage.
Whether you're looking for a Christmas light company, a Christmas light hanging service or full holiday light installation, every Urbana 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 Urbana's homes
Stone Creek is Urbana's largest concentration of newer upscale homes, and the long rooflines along the fairways are made for a full C9 outline. Beringer Commons and the subdivisions south of Windsor Road have similar two-stories with simpler peaks that light quickly and cleanly. In Historic East Urbana and around Carle Park, we slow down: Prairie-style eaves, Craftsman brackets and Tudor gables each need a specific bulb spacing and clip, and the mature trees are often the star of the display. The brick ranches near Crystal Lake Park and the Urbana Country Club look best with a single clean roofline and lit landscape beds.
Weather note for Urbana: Urbana's mature tree canopy, especially around Carle Park and East Urbana, means falling branches and ice from overhanging limbs are a real December hazard. We route lines to avoid drip points and check them after every ice event.

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!
