Midas Holiday Lighting delivers premium Christmas light installation for commercial properties, estate homes, and high-end residences in Central New Jersey, including Princeton, Westfield, Colts Neck, and Summit, as well as Westchester NY and Nashville TN. We specialize in elegant roofline displays, tree lighting, and custom-designed decor. Fully insured, discreet, and highly rated by discerning clients.
"They wowed me last year with the installation of our holiday lights, from getting a quote to the day they uninstalled the lights. Everyone is extremely professional and punctual. They all stand behind their work and the dedication is evident. But I just HAD to come and review them right now because they go above and beyond for their customers. They returned last week for this year's lighting and again were punctual and following the instructions from last year to the tee. However, my elderly stepdad made the mistake of cutting a cord while tending to the lawn yesterday. I was embarrassed to contact Midas, but also understand that mistakes happen and simply hoped for the best. I thought the installers might be dispatched some time next week or so... and instead they came TONIGHT! I am floored, just floored at the exceptional work these men do. I am EXTREMELY happy I chose Midas for my holiday lighting and HIGHLY recommend them for your needs, too!"

"The landscaping of my home needed to be redone. I interviewed a number of Landscapers but after I spoke with Don of D&S Landscaping, Inc., I didn’t contact anyone else. Don told me which shrubs to keep and which to remove. He did a quick sketch of plants he would recommend that would do well in my yard. He showed me pictures of the plants and gave me a very fair written estimate of the cost. He asked for a reasonable deposit and we scheduled a date for the work to be done. He started when he said he would and finished on the same day. His crew is wonderful, polite and very hardworking. They worked from the time they arrived in the morning until early evening adding the unexpected bonus of mowing the back and front yard. Don checked to see that everything was done correctly and to see if I was satisfied. The front looks wonderful and I am more than just satisfied. I would recommend D&S to anyone looking for someone to do landscaping. You won’t be sorry it you do!"

If climbing ladders or handling wiring isn’t in your comfort zone, hire a pro. Look for installers who post clear per-foot or hourly rates, carry insurance, and have solid reviews. Comparing at least three quotes helps you spot fair pricing without sacrificing safety. Skipping credentials to save a few dollars can cost you far more in repairs, so pick a qualified team and enjoy a safe, eye-catching display.
Yes, booking between February and September often scores lower rates because demand is light and pros have open calendars. You might even negotiate a discount package that includes removal or storage. If the budget is tight, ask whether a handyperson or an off-season permanent-light install makes sense for your home and timeline.
Determining the number of holiday lights for your house depends on your home’s size and specific decorative vision. Your project requires 10 to 20 light strands for a basic exterior display, with 100 lights allocated for eaves and an additional 10 to 20 bulbs for each awning.
For trees and substantial shrubs, allocate five to 10 strands per unit to achieve complete and balanced illumination across your property.
Tipping isn’t mandatory, but it’s a nice way to thank your installer for a job well done. Most homeowners offer 10% to 20% of the total bill or round up to an even figure if the crew exceeds expectations. A small extra goes a long way toward showing appreciation—and may help you snag priority booking next season.
Yes, you can install holiday lights yourself if your property layout is straightforward and your electrical system is secure. Homeowners who are confident in their ability to safely handle wiring and use proper equipment can save money with a DIY approach.
However, it is crucial to test all outlets thoroughly and secure the proper ladders and safety gear before starting. Careful planning and adherence to safety guidelines are essential to protect yourself and your home while achieving an attractive display.
Start by clearing the area of loose debris, damaged shingles, and anything that could trip you up. Test outdoor outlets and, if you’re unsure, bring in an electrician. Use a sturdy extension ladder (or scaffolding for very high spots) and never work alone—having a helper steady the ladder is non-negotiable. Taking these simple steps keeps you, your roof, and your new lights safe.
