Frequently Asked Questions
Holiday lighting questions answered
Every answer below references our Long Island experience so you can confidently plan multiple seasons of glow.
How soon should I begin planning holiday lighting for Long Island?
Start in late summer so we can reserve crews, source timers, and order custom fixtures before October. Commercial spaces often begin planning earlier to align with marketing calendars, while residential clients reserve September walkthroughs to nail down colors and roofline narratives.
Do you handle both Suffolk County and Nassau County properties?
Yes. We dispatch crews from Hempstead to the Hamptons, covering coastal enclaves, villages, and communities throughout Suffolk and Nassau. Local knowledge helps us secure permits, operate within HOA guidelines, and tackle tidal humidity.
Can you program smart RGB scenes for holidays beyond Christmas?
Absolutely. Our controllers shift palettes for Hanukkah blues, Valentine’s Day roses, Halloween ambers, and 4th of July fireworks while still honoring the warm white base that keeps anything from looking excessive.
What is included in an all-inclusive holiday lighting package?
Design, installation, timed controls, seasonal maintenance, and takedown with labeled storage. We also include roofline, tree wrap, walkway, storefront, and estate layers so you get a complete narrative across your entire property.
Do you only install Christmas lights?
No. We service every major holiday on Long Island—Halloween, Valentine’s Day, St. Patrick’s Day, Easter, Thanksgiving, 4th of July, and bespoke celebrations—using the same weatherproof LEDs and safe installation practices.
How do you protect rooflines and shingles during install?
We use non-invasive clips, glide track systems, and OSHA-safe lifts so shingles, gutters, and architectural details never suffer. Post-install inspections confirm roofline tension is even and water drainage stays unblocked.
Are outdoor holiday lights waterproof?
Yes. Every strand is IP65 or higher with warranty-backed housings. We seal splices with silicone gel and keep every transformer in a weatherproof box, which means rain, coastal drizzle, and even snowstorms do not dim the show.
What makes your holiday lighting different from DIY strings?
We design at scale, integrate timers and smart controls, service the displays through the entire season, and remove them cleanly for storage. HOA compliance, commercial permits, and final night demos are all part of the premium Oasis experience.
