Roofline Christmas lights that look perfect.
Custom-cut C9 LED strands for every peak, gable, dormer, and turret. The cleanest roofline installs in Highland Park, Plano, Frisco, McKinney, Lucas, and all of DFW.
A clean, glowing roofline is the foundation.
Before tree wraps, before garland, before wreaths — the roofline does the heavy lifting. It's what shapes your home against the night sky, what catches the eye from down the block, and what every neighbor will compliment.
Our roofline installs use commercial-grade C9 LED strands, custom-cut to your exact roofline. Every peak, gable, dormer, and turret traced perfectly — no gaps, no awkward overlaps, no janky extension cords.

Real roofline work
Clean lines. Perfect spacing. Every peak traced.
Professional roofline lighting done right.
Custom roofline lighting is the backbone of every great holiday display. We custom-cut commercial-grade C9 LED strands to your home's exact rooflines — every gable, every dormer, every valley, every architectural detail outlined cleanly with no excess wire, no gaps, and no improvised splicing.
What we install & how we do it.
Main Roofline (Eaves & Gables)
The primary roof outline that defines your home's silhouette at night. We follow every peak, valley, and return crisply with custom-cut C9 LED.
Dormer Windows
Each dormer gets its own custom-cut strand wrapping around the peak and down both sides. Done right, dormers become individual little Christmas focal points.
Bay Windows & Architectural Returns
Bay windows and the small architectural returns around entries deserve outline lighting too. We cut strands precisely to fit these smaller details.
Porte-Cochère & Garage Lines
Roofline lighting extends across attached structures — porte-cochères, carriage-style garages, side-entry porches. We treat the entire roof system as one design.
Eyebrow & Curved Details
Curved architectural details (eyebrow dormers, arched returns) need flexible installation. C9 LED with proper clipping follows curves smoothly.
Our process.
On-Site Roofline Measurement
We measure every linear foot of your roofline — including small details often missed.
Strand Layout Planning
We plan where each strand starts and stops, where male/female plugs meet, and how power flows back to the timer.
Custom Cut & Pre-Assembly
We custom-cut your strands at our facility, splice and weatherproof connections, and pre-test before arriving.
Install with Safe Clips
Clips attach to your shingles or gutters without damage. We balance each bulb facing outward for the best visual line.
Honest, transparent pricing.
Roofline lighting typically runs $1.50–$3.50 per linear foot of roof edge. Standard homes (120-180 linear feet) run $750–$1,500. Larger luxury homes (300-500+ linear feet with multiple gables and dormers) run $700 to $2,500+.

Lose your own lights and you're buying them again; store with us and you never do. It's hassle-free for you, and it lets our crew move faster every season.
Common questions.
Do you outline every gable and dormer, or just the main roofline?+
We outline everything in our standard installations — main roofline, every gable, every dormer, every architectural return. Cutting corners on the small details makes a luxury home look incomplete. We include them all.
Will roofline lights damage my shingles or gutters?+
No. Our all-in-one clips slide gently under shingle edges or hook onto gutter lips. They hold securely all season and come off cleanly without leaving marks or damage.
Can you do roofline on stucco or stone homes?+
Yes — for homes with no exposed shingles or gutters along the front, we use non-damaging adhesive clips or specialty mounting hardware. We've handled stucco, stone, and tile-roof installations.
How does timer programming work?+
We install a smart timer that automatically turns lights on at dusk and off at your preferred time (typically 10 PM or 11 PM). Some clients prefer programmable timers for vacation mode or specific event hours.
Do I pay full price for Christmas lights every year?+
No. Your first season covers your custom commercial-grade C9 LED lights, design, and installation — and you own the lights from then on. Every year after, you pay a lower flat price for just the install and takedown, because the lights are already yours. No re-buying and no surprise increases, and no hidden or service-call fees.
Do you store my Christmas lights, and what does that include?+
Yes — free climate-controlled storage is included. When the season ends we take everything down and store your lights for you, so there's no clutter in your garage and nothing to lose. As long as we store your lights they stay under warranty: we replace bulbs and clips as needed and have everything ready each November. It keeps reinstalls fast and hassle-free, with no service-call fees.
The expert guide to Roofline Christmas Light Installation.
Roofline lighting is the most important element of any luxury holiday display. It defines your home's silhouette at night, creates the architectural statement visible from the curb, and sets the tone for every other element (tree wrapping, garland, wreaths) to complement. Done well, roofline lighting transforms your home into the most beautiful house on the block. Done poorly, it looks like an afterthought.
Why roofline lighting matters most
Among all the holiday lighting decisions you make, the roofline is by far the most impactful. Here's why:
The roofline is visible from the farthest distance. While tree wrapping and porch garland look beautiful up close, your roofline reads from the end of the block, from passing cars, from across the street. It's your home's holiday presence to everyone who drives by.
The roofline defines architectural silhouette.
Your home's specific shape — the pitch of the gables, the placement of dormers, the run of eaves — becomes visible only at night when outlined in lights. Without good roofline lighting, your home looks like a dark shape; with it, your home becomes a glowing architectural statement.
The roofline anchors all other elements. Tree wrapping, garland, wreaths, and landscape lighting all work in relationship to your roofline. The roofline establishes the color palette, the design language, and the visual weight that other elements complement.
What proper roofline coverage looks like
Full roofline lighting follows every architectural line on your home's roof — not just the main eaves. This includes:
Front-facing eaves and gables — The primary roof edges visible from the street. The non-negotiable starting point for any roofline display.
Side rooflines — Visible from neighbors' driveways and from angled curb views.
Should be lit if visible from any common viewing angle.
Every dormer window — Each dormer gets custom-cut C9 LED wrapping around the peak and down both sides. Skipping dormers makes a luxury home look incomplete.
Architectural returns — The small step-back details where rooflines meet walls or where one roof section transitions to another.
Easy to miss; important to include.
Bay windows — Bay windows have their own roofline shapes that deserve outlining.
Porte-cochères and attached structures — Carriage-style garage rooflines, covered entry porte-cochères, and other attached roof sections.
Eyebrow dormers and curved details — Curved architectural details require flexible installation but should never be skipped just because they're harder.
Dental molding and decorative trim — On luxury homes, the architectural trim work deserves outline lighting too.
Color temperature for rooflines
Color temperature is the most important roofline design decision. The shade of 'warm white' you choose determines the entire mood of your display.
2200K (ultra-warm/amber) — Reaches into gold territory. Beautiful on Tudor revivals, stone facades, historic homes. The 'candlelight' quality feels bespoke and traditional.
2700K (warm white) — The classic luxury standard. Mimics traditional incandescent. Looks elegant on brick, stone, stucco. Highland Park's signature color.
3000K (warm white, slightly cooler) — Slightly less amber than 2700K.
Some homeowners prefer this for white stucco and very modern homes.
4000K (neutral white) — Approaches pure white but not quite. Less common but works for modern transitional architecture.
5000K (pure white) — Crisp, modern, clean. Best for contemporary architecture, modern luxury, and minimalist designs.
The mistake DIY installers make is mixing color temperatures — buying strands from different batches or different brands that don't perfectly match. The result is visible inconsistency in the roofline. We use single-batch sourcing to ensure every bulb matches the next.
Installation techniques that protect your home
Roofline lighting installation has direct potential to damage your home if done poorly. Nails, staples, and aggressive clips can crack shingles, tear gutters, or create water-entry points that lead to thousands in repair costs. Our installation methodology specifically prevents damage:
All-in-one shingle clips slide gently under shingle edges. They hold securely all season under wind and weather, then slide out cleanly in January without leaving marks or damage.
Gutter clips hook onto gutter lips without piercing the metal.
Holds bulbs upright facing outward for clean visual lines.
No nails, no staples, no roof penetrations. Ever. We don't drill into fascia, we don't staple into shingles, we don't penetrate roof flashing.
Every attachment is non-damaging.
Tile-roof methodology — For Mediterranean and Tuscan tile roofs (common in Frisco luxury), we use specialty adhesive clips designed for tile or specialty mounting hardware. We never penetrate tile.
Stucco and stone exteriors — For homes without exposed shingles or gutters along the front, we use non-damaging adhesive clips that hold during the season and come off cleanly.
