What We Do

Everything From the Design Visit to the January Takedown

One booking covers the season. Rooflines, trees, wreaths, garland, storefronts and permanent lighting.

Residential Christmas Light Installation

We supply the lights, design the display, hang it with roof-safe clips, keep it running all season and take it down in January. Most Missoula homes run $400 to $1,300 for a first season, and the lights are yours to keep.

Commercial Holiday Lighting

Storefronts in downtown Missoula and Hamilton and HOA entrances in Miller Creek and Grant Creek get commercial-grade LED displays with season-long service, installed by a licensed and insured construction crew that carries its own liability coverage.

Commercial Holiday Lighting →

Roofline & Gutter Lighting

C9 LED bulbs on socket wire cut to your exact peaks and gutter runs, held with shingle tab and gutter clips so your roof looks the same in April as it did in October.

Roofline & Gutter Lighting →

Tree & Shrub Wrapping

Mini LED strands wrapped tight around trunks and branches, at up to 100 lights per vertical foot, on the ponderosa pines and cottonwoods that frame homes across the Missoula valley, plus the hedges and shrubs along the walk.

Tree & Shrub Wrapping →

Wreaths, Garland & Accents

Pre-lit artificial wreaths on the gables and front door, LED garland along railings and window frames, all matched to the color of your roofline and installed on the same visit.

Wreaths, Garland & Accents →

Permanent Holiday Lighting

Color-changing LEDs mounted under the eave or hidden in a fascia track and controlled from your phone, so the house can wear holiday colors in December and a soft warm white for the rest of the year.

Christmas Light Takedown

After the holidays you pick the date. We take every strand and clip down carefully, coil and label the lights by location, and leave them with you for next year.

Why Montana Lights

Builders on Your Roof, Not a Seasonal Side Gig

Montana Lights is owned and operated by Constructive Brothers, a licensed Missoula construction company. The crew hanging your lights frames houses and builds decks the other nine months of the year. They know shingles, gutters, fascia and steep metal roofs, and they treat yours like they built it.

  • No damage to your roof. Shingle-tab and gutter clips only. No staples, no nails, no zip ties on gutters.
  • Commercial-grade LEDs. C9 bulbs on custom-cut strands, rated for sub-zero Montana nights and a fraction of the power of the old incandescents.
  • Posted pricing. Prices are on this site, and you can price your roofline and book online. The quote you get is the number you pay.
  • Lit by Thanksgiving Guarantee. Book by October 31 and your lights are on before Thanksgiving, or the install is free.
  • 48-Hour Repair Promise. Any outage fixed within 48 hours, all season, at no charge.
  • Takedown booked up front. After the holidays you pick the date. We take everything down, coil and label the strands, and leave them with you for next year.

Common Questions

Straight Answers Before You Book

How much does Christmas light installation cost in Missoula?
Seasonal lights for most homes run $400 to $1,300 for a first season, which covers the C9 lights and clips you keep, a custom design, installation, maintenance all season and takedown in January. The smallest job is $300. Returning customers pay less because they already own their lights, so a returning season is install and takedown only. Permanent lights run $19.50 to $26.85 per foot installed. Use the pricing page to price your own roofline.
Do I have to buy the lights?
Yes, in your first season, and they are yours to keep. We supply commercial-grade C9 LED bulbs, about one per foot of roofline, at $30 per 100 bulbs plus $10 per 100 for clips. At takedown we coil and label the strands and leave them with you to keep in the garage, attic or shed. We do not store lights, and our customers prefer it that way. Next season you pay install and takedown only.
When do you install?
Installs run from early October through mid-December, with the calendar filling by early November. Book by October 31 and your display is covered by our Lit by Thanksgiving Guarantee. We can install early and leave the timer off until you want them on.
What happens if a strand goes out?
Text or call us. Under our 48-Hour Repair Promise, we fix any outage, dead section or loose strand within 48 hours at no charge, all season. Commercial-grade LEDs and proper circuits mean this rarely happens, but when it does, it is on us.
