Holiday lighting in Chapel Hill, NC

Carolina Sky Holiday Lights designs, installs, maintains, takes down and stores residential and commercial holiday light displays throughout Chapel Hill and the surrounding Triangle.

Chapel Hill properties tend to share a few traits: mature hardwoods that tower over the house, two-story rooflines with real pitch, and neighborhoods where the whole street decorates. Meadowmont and Southern Village homes usually suit warm-white rooflines with a wrapped specimen tree; the deeper lots off Fordham and toward Governors Club often carry bigger designs with multiple trees and long ridgeline runs.

Neighborhoods we work in

Meadowmont · Southern Village · Governors Club · Winmore · Lake Hogan Farms · Northside · Franklin Street corridor · Finley Forest

Couldn’t be happier with Carolina Sky Holiday Lights! The whole experience was professional, easy, and the finished display looks absolutely incredible. They did an amazing job bringing everything together, and the attention to detail really shows. Have been using them for the past 2 years and I Highly recommend them to anyone looking to make their house stand out this holiday season!

Questions from Chapel Hill homeowners.

How early should Chapel Hill homeowners book?
Reach out as early in the fall as you can — install dates are first-come, and the calendar tightens as the season approaches. If you're reading this later in the season, still call. We'll tell you honestly what we can do with the days left.
Do you work in my Chapel Hill neighborhood?
Almost certainly. We're based on Columbia Street and regularly work in Meadowmont, Southern Village, Governors Club, Winmore, Lake Hogan Farms and everywhere in between. If you're on the edge of town or just outside it, ask — we usually say yes.
Can you wrap the big hardwoods common in Chapel Hill?
Yes — that's one of the things we're set up for. The lift lets us wrap tall trunks and lower canopies on mature oaks and other hardwoods safely, with wrap spacing that allows for growth. At the design visit we'll tell you exactly which of your trees are worth lighting and how high we can take them.
