Holiday lighting · 108 towns across twelve Midwest markets
Christmas lights, hung by
one local installer.
Curbstead isn’t an installer. We send your details to at most one installer covering your town, and if one is available they contact you directly — no bidding war, no call list, no account.
Two minutes, no account. Your details go to one installer for your area and nowhere else — never sold to lead lists.
- One request, no call list
- Your details stay private
- Local cost guidance
- Plan before you commit
- Free, no obligation
How it works
Three steps to a lit roofline.
Walk us through your home
Stories, roof type, trees, how much of the property you want lit. Two minutes, no account, no phone number until the end.
Hear from one installer, if one covers you
At most one crew that works your town and your roof type — not a call center, not a list of five strangers.
They handle everything after
Design, install, mid-season fixes, and takedown in January — with lease and storage options spelled out in the quote.
What we cover
Every kind of light your home wears.
Christmas lights
Roofline, trees, and wreaths — installed, maintained, and taken down.
Permanent lighting
Architectural eave lighting, tucked into the soffit. Warm white to full color.
Halloween
Tasteful seasonal displays for homes that skip the inflatables.
Commercial
Storefronts, HOAs, and entryways lit to a schedule you don't manage.
Why homeowners use us
We do the first pass so you don’t call five installers.
Installers confirm licensing and insurance in their application, and we publish what to verify yourself before anyone climbs your roof. You compare one good option, not a stack of cold calls.

How we help homeowners hire better holiday lighting installers.
Lights involve your roof, your gutters, and live electricity — hiring blind is how that goes wrong. We screen installers before they can quote you, and we publish the standard so you know exactly what a professional install should look like.
Installer vetting
Installers confirm licensing and insurance in their application before they can receive a request — and we publish exactly what that confirmation is and isn't.
Proper insurance expectations
We confirm the coverage a crew should carry, and explain what to ask any installer before someone climbs your roof.
Roof protection
The professional standard is non-penetrating clips — no staples, nails, or screws in your shingles, fascia, or gutters.
Professional installation practices
Commercial-grade materials, custom-cut lines, and planned circuits separate a pro install from a weekend job.
Safe removal
A complete quote includes end-of-season takedown, done with the same roof-safe care as the install.
Local matching
Your request goes to at most one installer who works your town and its rooflines — never a national call center.
