Not yet but permanent roofline lighting and long-term tree lighting services will be available soon.

Any color or combination of colors you desire. The most popular color is Warm White, which represents the majority of our installs and is widely considered the most elegant color.

We offer a wide range of other colors.  For inspiration and ideas, please visit our website’s gallery page at www.happysantaholidaylights.com.

Question 10

How should I prepare for my installation?

Accepted Answer

If you have eve outlets please make sure the switch that controls those outlets is on.

Please ensure that we have access to all parts of your property exterior by unlocking side gates and all electric power is functioning properly.

Please trim up your trees! Clean trees will hold and show more lights, creating a better display. If any tree branches are close to the roofline and can touch the roofline lights, those branches can knock down the lights when windy and should be trimmed back.

Question 11

Are the lights on a timer?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we typically use photocell timers. The lights will automatically turn on at sunset and then turn off when you choose.  We also can install mechanical (time based) or smart timers. Regardless of timer style we will set up at time of install and you will not need to adjust or touch at all during the season.

Question 12

How does the removal work?

Accepted Answer

The removal process begins on January 2nd and is fully automated. All removals are guaranteed to be completed before Jan 25th.

We organize the removals by zip codes. You will receive a notification a few days before the removals in your area. Typically, there is no need for anyone to be home during the removal process.

Question 13

Any HOA concerns with an October installation?

Accepted Answer

We have never had a client receive an HOA letter because of an October install and the lights do not need to be turned on until you are ready. Moreover, you are still within 30 days of other holidays like Halloween, Diwali, and Thanksgiving. October installs are never an issue.

Question 14

What about my HOA rules for removal?

Accepted Answer

We understand that most HOA’s threaten to fine homeowners if holiday lights are left up for too long and we have never had a client receive a fine.

Happy Santa ensures timely removal of all equipment and guarantees that all removals will be completed before Jan 25th but we typically complete our final removals by Jan 20th.

Question 15

Do I need to store the lights?

Accepted Answer

No, as a rental service we take care of everything, we will remove and store all equipment.

Question 16

What should I expect next season?

Accepted Answer

We open for the season in August. Once we open, we will contact you to schedule your re-installation. We will send both emails and text messages. Our priority is to schedule all existing clients before taking on new clients.

Once you receive our open for the season notifications, please contact us asap to schedule your installation as the best dates will fill up quickly.

Question 17

What about maintenance? I live in a very windy area:

Accepted Answer

Maintenance calls for any reason are included in our service and are completed within 24 hours.

Our roofline lights are equipped with magnets that can withstand winds up to 70 miles per hour. While rare, if the lights come down, it’s often from a tree branch hitting into them. If you have any branches touching the roofline, please trim those branches before install.

Question 18

What types of Christmas lights do you install?

Accepted Answer

We install SMD LED C9 size bulbs for rooflines and 5mm wide-angle mini lights for landscaping and trees. Both types of lights are available in a variety of colors.
Please note, we do not offer Icicle lights or permanent roof lights..

Question 19

What is an SMD bulb?

Accepted Answer

SMD LED Christmas light bulbs are different from standard LED bulbs as they contain three filaments instead of one. This design lights up the entire bulb, not just the tip, providing ultra-bright and beautiful illumination. These are the best and brightest commercial-grade bulbs available, far superior to standard lights.
