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.
Montana Lights is owned and operated by Constructive Brothers, a licensed and insured Missoula construction company. Our crew spends the rest of the year framing houses and working on roofs, so hanging lights on a steep pitch in November is ordinary work for us rather than a seasonal side job. Every home gets commercial-grade C9 LED bulbs on strands we cut to the exact length of your roofline, held by shingle tab and gutter clips that leave no holes behind. In your first season you buy the lights and clips, and they are yours to keep. We hang them, maintain them through the holidays, and come back after the holidays on the date you pick to take everything down, coil and label each strand, and leave the lights with you for next year.
Missoula winters do not make this easy. Early snow can sit on a north-facing roofline by late October, and the cold that settles into the valley in December will expose a cheap bulb quickly. That is why we install only commercial-grade LEDs rated for sub-zero temperatures and plug every run into a GFCI outlet through a timer or photocell, so the display comes on at dusk without anyone flipping a switch. Book by October 31 and our Lit by Thanksgiving Guarantee applies. If a strand ever goes dark, our 48-Hour Repair Promise means a crew is back on your roof within two days at no charge. Design visits and quotes are free across the Missoula valley and the Bitterroot.
Most single-family homes in Missoula run $400 to $1,300 for a first season of seasonal lights, driven mainly by roofline footage, with returning seasons priced lower since you already own the lights and clips.

The people hanging your lights frame houses and work on roofs for a living. They know how to move on a 10/12 pitch with a skiff of snow on it and where to set a ladder on frozen ground. Your shingles and gutters get the same care we give a job site.
Every C9 strand attaches with shingle tab clips under the first course or gutter clips along the drip edge. Nothing is stapled or nailed into your roof, so there are no punctures to leak during spring melt and nothing to patch when the lights come down in January.
Most Missoula homes land between $400 and $1,300 for a first season, depending on roofline length, and that includes the lights and clips you keep. Trees and shrubs are quoted separately. Returning customers pay less because they already own their lights, so a returning season is install and takedown only. You can price your roofline online, and you get a written quote after the free design visit, with no surprises on install day.
Book before October 31 and we guarantee your home is lit by Thanksgiving. Once the display is up, our 48-Hour Repair Promise covers any dead strand or tripped circuit for the rest of the season at no charge. One call brings a crew back within two days.
We walk the property with you, measure the roofline, look at outlet locations and talk through what you want lit. You get a written quote on the spot or by the next morning, and nothing is owed until you approve it.
Back at the shop we cut C9 strands to the exact measurements of each roofline run, so there are no dangling tails or awkward splices at the corners. The strands are labeled by location, and they are yours to keep for future seasons.
A crew of two or three arrives with the strands, clips, timers and cords already staged. Most homes take two to four hours. Every run is tested and the timer is set before we pull the ladders.
Through December we handle any outage within 48 hours. After the holidays you pick your takedown date. We take everything down, coil and label each strand, and leave it with you to keep until next fall.
