Christmas Light Installation in Glendale

Houses built with detail worth showing

Glendale is small, settled and well kept — Tudors, colonials and solid two-storys on tree-lined streets between Kirkwood and Webster Groves. The housing here was built with detail: gable returns, dormers, brick and stucco combinations, entries with real proportion.

The mistake on a house like this is covering it. We trace what the architect drew — the roofline, the gable edges, the entry — in one warm colour temperature, and leave the rest alone. Clips only, cut on site, and removed carefully in January so nothing is left in the fascia.

What works here

• Warm white C9s along the full roofline — one clean line is the whole job on a close-set street
• The porch traced — rail, posts and header, because the porch is the face of the house
• Wreaths at the front windows — seen from the sidewalk, which is where people actually are
• Garland at the door — the arrival moment, done properly
• A wrapped tree at the curb — mature street trees do more here than another roof run

Glendale sits on the same run as Kirkwood, Webster Groves and Rock Hill. One price covers design, install, season-long service, takedown and labeled storage.
