Longboat Key homes are often set back from the road and surrounded by tall palms. Many sit in gated communities or condo associations. Decorating Elves provides full-service Christmas light installation for Longboat Key homeowners, tailored to your property’s scale and local rules.
Expert Holiday Lighting Installation
Expansive properties need real planning. Our Christmas lighting installation services begin with measuring rooflines and frontage, counting trees, and mapping power access before we price anything. When we’re doing the light installation, we keep a low profile. Our holiday lighting crews arrive on schedule, work neatly, and leave your property spotless.

FAQ: Holiday Lighting
How Much Do Professional Christmas Lights Cost?
The cost depends on your property size and how much lighting you want. A site visit lets us see the roofline, trees, and access so we can price accurately.
How Early Can You Put Up Christmas Lights?
Many people install in early or mid-November so the display is ready for Thanksgiving. There is no rule against earlier if that’s what you would like.
Can You Put Lights On Very Tall Palm Trees?
Yes, we can. We use lifts and outdoor-rated lighting to wrap tall palms safely.
Are Warm White or Cool White Lights Better?
Warm white gives a softer, more traditional look and suits most coastal homes. Cool white looks crisp against pale or modern exteriors.
Does My Condo Association Need to Approve the Display?
Often, yes. We can prepare a drawing and share our insurance details to help the approval go smoothly.
How Long Do the Lights Stay Up?
Most of our clients keep them up until early January. Our Christmas lighting installation team can pick a removal date with you at the time of booking.
