Hire A Pro To Design and Install Your Christmas Lights

Your house can be one that turns heads.

Would you like to have the outside of your home ablaze with lights for the holidays but find the idea of getting up on a ladder and doing the job yourself unappealing?

There are companies you can hire that will design your outdoor display, complete the installation and even replace any lights that go out during the season (mostly due to pesky squirrels).  After the holidays these companies come back, remove all decorations and store them away until next year.  

“No Hassle Holiday Decorating” is the motto of the B & B Holiday Decorating Company of Des Plaines, which specializes in residential and commercial outdoor displays. They are a family owned company that has been in business since 1990. They give free estimates; the phone is 847-825-1657.

Glenview native Kelly Fitzsimmons founded her company Light Up Your Holidays in 2000. She has a background in art and photography which she relies upon in creating individual outdoor holiday displays.

Fitzsimmons can upload a photo of a perspective client’s home and digitally show them exactly how their decorated home will look. Fitzsimmons' fees start at $1,000.
