No, we offer an all-inclusive rental service covering design, installation, maintenance, removal, and storage of our equipment.

No, our service is rental-based. You don't need to purchase any equipment. If you were to buy lights elsewhere, you would eventually need to replace them and handle seasonal repairs.

Our rental service also allows you to change bulb colors seasonally.

No, we specialize in traditional holiday lighting using the brightest commercial grade C9 bulbs available.

Although, our lights are temporary, they offer a classic, festive vibe delivering a vibrant and timeless look that bead lights (used on permanent lights) simply can not replicate.

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.

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.

Yes, we use photocell timers. The lights will automatically turn on at sunset and will turn off after 4 to 8 hours. Just let our technicians know your preference on when the lights should turn off.

The removal process begins on January 2nd, 2024, and is fully automated.

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.

We have never had a client receive and 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.

We understand that most HOA’s threaten to fine homeowners if holiday lights are left up for too long.

Happy Santa ensures timely removal of all equipment and guarantees that all removals will be completed before Jan 25th, 2024. Last season, we completed our final removals on Jan 16th, 2023.

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

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.

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.

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..

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.
