Holiday lighting in Durham, NC

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

Durham's housing stock is the most varied in our service area: historic homes near Downtown and Trinity Park with deep porches and tall facades, established two-stories in Hope Valley and Woodcroft, and newer construction toward Southpoint. Porches and columns take garland beautifully; the taller facades suit window wreaths and multi-level rooflines.

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!

I had no doubt that my house would look amazing after Carolina Sky came by. It’s never too early to have Christmas lighting up and I can proudly say my house looks beautiful. Thank you so much to these amazing men for their work!

Carolina Sky Holiday Lights did an awesome job! The entire process was easy from start to finish, and the lights turned out even better than we expected. They were professional, reliable, and paid attention to every detail. If you’re looking to have Christmas lights installed, I can’t recommend them enough. They take all the hassle out of decorating and make your house look incredible. We’ll definitely be using them again!

Questions from Durham homeowners.

Do you install on historic homes in Durham?
Yes — historic porches, tall facades and original trim are a regular part of our Durham work. Everything attaches with clips and hangers that don't pierce or nail into original woodwork, and cords route down downspouts and trim lines so nothing disturbs the facade. At the design visit we'll flag anything that needs a special approach.
Can you light a two-story or tall Durham home?
Two-story rooflines, tall gables and high dormers are routine for us. The crew has the ladders, lift access and roof experience from working Triangle rooftops year-round with Carolina Sky Softwash — height is the reason to hire this out, not a reason we say no.
How early should I book in Durham?
As early in the fall as you can — dates are first-come, and Durham fills quickly because so much of our calendar is booked from Chapel Hill by repeat clients. Later in the season, call anyway and we'll tell you honestly what's possible.
