JVS Christmas Lighting

Our Process

Our streamlined holiday lighting process.

We are an all-lease program, and we build the program to suit you. Designs and estimates are free.

Request your quote

Give us a call or submit an Instant Quote request online. Most quotes are returned within minutes, and your quote includes a digital image of your property so you can see the plan rather than imagine it.

We design your display

We prepare your estimate using satellite imaging. If we cannot get a clear image of your home or building, we will ask you to email a photo or two. In-person estimates are available from March through September.

Designs and estimates are free. We will discuss lights, colors and layout, and work with you to create the right display for your property and your budget.

Choose your program

JVS is an all-lease program, and we build the program around you. Choose a 1-year, 2-year or 3-year agreement. The longer the agreement, the more value it carries from season to season.

A deposit is required to reserve your project. Remaining payments are due according to the payment schedule outlined in your individual proposal.

Professional installation

JVS supplies every product we install for you. Light cords and jumper cords are custom fit to your building and professionally installed by trained crews.

We use solar timers that come on at dark and run for 2, 4, 6 or 8 hours after dusk, or dusk to dawn, set the way you want them.

Your installation is coordinated based on your preferred timeframe, route scheduling, weather conditions, property requirements and seasonal availability.

Enjoy the season, with support

You enjoy the display, and if something is not right, our Elf Support team handles covered service issues in accordance with your limited warranty and service agreement. In-Season Service and Support runs from installation through December 24.

Service requests go through the Elf Support form on this site, which creates the work order automatically.

Removal and storage

We remove the display at the end of the Christmas season, beginning after Three Kings Day in January, or sooner if you ask.

Everything is packed and stored safely at our facility. With 2-year and 3-year agreements, any repairs or refurbishing needed along the way are included.

Common Questions

Questions about how it works.

If your question isn't on the list, give us a call, we answer the phone.

When is the best time to schedule holiday light installation?

Late September through October is the ideal installation window. Earlier installations generally provide better weather conditions and help clients get ahead of the busy November rush. JVS begins accepting reservations as early as August.

How quickly will I receive my quote?

Online quote requests are typically reviewed within minutes, with most quotes provided within an hour or sooner during normal business hours. Quotes also include JVS Holiday Concepts design software so clients can see a visual concept of the proposed display before installation. Larger or more complex projects may require an on-site consultation.

How soon after my quote is approved can you install?

Once the quote is approved and the installation is reserved, JVS coordinates the preferred installation timeframe based on availability, route scheduling and weather. November through early December fills quickly, so early reservations are strongly recommended.

What does holiday lighting installation cost?

Professional Christmas lighting programs typically start at $2,000 and go up based on the size, design, and scope of the display. Every project is custom designed and receives a detailed quote before work begins.

Are financing options available?

Flexible payment options may be available at checkout through Stripe, including Affirm, Klarna and Afterpay, subject to eligibility and provider terms.

Is there a contract I have to sign?

Yes. JVS quotes include a written service agreement covering the selected design, scope, pricing, service terms and insurance information. JVS offers 1-year, 2-year and 3-year seasonal service agreements, with additional pricing benefits available for longer commitments.

Can you install or take down on a specific date?

JVS does its best to accommodate preferred installation and removal timeframes, but reservations should be made well in advance. Scheduling is based on client preferences, routing, weather and seasonal availability.

Are you licensed and insured?

JVS Christmas Lighting is a licensed and fully insured New Jersey home improvement contractor. Insurance information is included with emailed quotes, and proof of insurance is available upon request.
