About Us

South Orange County Christmas Lights began in 1996 and has been serving OC for nearly 30 years. We specialize in the professional installation of Holiday lighting on commercial and residential buildings. We also install landscape lighting, party/wedding lights, backyard café lights and lighting for tv commercials. We provide all the materials including lights, cords, timers and our price includes removal.

We begin installing in the middle of October and offer discounts during on installs before November. Many customers like to turn the lights on for Halloween. By installing the lights early you get a lot more value. In OC Thanksgiving week was typically when many people started turning on their lights. For those that have paid to have the lights installed the trend has been to start turning them on even earlier in the middle of November. If you thought having them installed just before Thanksgiving that is late in the season for professional installation companies.
A popular trend is to install lights in the backyard on your fence or glass wall. This adds a great festive atmosphere for the season and its nice to be in the house and see lights in the backyard. Many backyards are visible to the street, so its exciting to be driving and see your house from far away.

Traditional incandescent lights are still the most popular requests we receive. Most people like the traditional warm white/yellowish appearance. We have traditional c7, c9, and icicle lights. Since the advent of LED’s there are dozens upon dozens of hues. Everyone knows what traditional incandescent lights look like and there has been little variation since they were invented. LED’s have a plastic covering over the diode. As the plastic gets exposed to UV it will typically yellow over time which adds to the variation of LED lights. Probably the third most common question I receive is “you don’t use those LEDs do you.” I also have some people say I like the LED lights my neighbor down the street has. If there are some LED’s you like I would ask that person where they got them. Additionally, LED’s are constantly evolving, so lights purchased 3 years ago probably will have a new version from the same company today. The monetary savings in electric use for a month will also be nominal. You may save $40 in a season if you ran the lights for 5 hours for 30 days. For these reasons we don’t supply LED lights, but can possibly install yours.
