Christmas light installation in Verona, NJ
Lakeside streets, lit up.
Verona is a friendly, walkable town with Tudors, Colonials, and Victorians within sight of Verona Park. Our Christmas light installation in Verona suits its compact lots and the neighbors who stroll past every evening.
Yes, we light homes in Verona. We are about 12 minutes away, installs start in September, and our last install date before Christmas is December 10.
Close streets, close neighbors
Verona's homes are often close together, with front porches, steps, and small front gardens facing the street. That makes the details people see from the sidewalk matter more than a huge show.
We focus on the roofline, the porch, the entry, and a tree or two. The result looks full and festive without spilling over onto the neighbor's house, and it holds up well when people walk by the park after dark.

A closer look at Verona
Verona is a town that likes being outdoors, and Verona Park is the heart of it. In December the park and the streets around it fill with walkers, joggers, and families, and the houses nearest to it are on display.
A glowing front porch here is seen by many people every evening. Homes are often close together, with front porches, steps, and small front lawns facing the sidewalk.
This closeness is part of the charm, and it means that our lights have to look good right next to a neighbor's. We keep lines straight, light levels even, and cords out of sight where we can.
Many Verona houses have strong architectural features, such as gabled fronts, brick or stone details, and wide front porches. We use those features to organize the display, giving each house a plan that matches its character.
Verona's streets are lively in December, and the park draws visitors. Many of those visitors walk past your home on the way, so we think about how your lights look at walking pace, not only from a car.
Houses on busy streets near the park or the main roads may want a little more brightness, while quiet side streets may suit a softer glow. We help you choose the right level of light for your location.
We also take care to keep lights from spilling into neighbors' windows. In a town where homes sit close together, thoughtful aiming is a courtesy that everyone appreciates.
Verona homeowners often ask how long the lights stay up. Our installs begin in September and run through December 10, and we return in January to take everything down and store the lights, so you never have to climb a ladder or find space in the garage.
Holiday lighting designs for Verona
Most displays combine a few of these design types. Here is how each one works on Verona homes.
Roofline lighting
Roofline lighting on a Verona home outlines the front gable, showing off a strong shape on a street of close houses.
Wreaths
A wreath on the door and one in the porch window gives a friendly, welcoming look.
Garlands
Garland on the porch railing and steps adds greenery at street level.
Tree and shrub wraps
Wrapped shrubs and a small tree are perfect for compact front yards.
Windows and doors
Window and door framing makes the front of the house glow, even near a neighbor's display.
Porches and pathways
Lit porch steps and front walks suit a town where people walk past every evening.
Lighting ideas for Verona homes
Make the porch a lantern
Light the porch roof and railings. A glowing porch is the most visible feature on a street of close houses.
Mark the gable
A front-facing gable is a strong shape. A single clean line around its edge makes it stand out.
Light the stoop and steps
Soft light along the steps looks good and helps visitors at night.
Keep shrubs simple
A couple of wrapped shrubs by the steps add color without clutter.
