Christmas Light Installation in Maryville, Illinois

Newer houses, quiet streets

Maryville sits between Collinsville and Glen Carbon, a village that has done most of its growing recently. The housing runs to newer two-storeys with stacked gables, stone-and-siding fronts and tall entries, on tidy streets with good-sized lots.

These elevations need each gable treated separately or they lose their shape after dark. We cut to the actual peak, light the entry portico because that is the focal point on a modern front, net the beds evenly, and clip everything so nothing goes near a warranty.

What works here

• Every gable outlined on its own — so the elevation keeps its shape
• Crisp white on stone and siding — matched to what the builder used
• The entry column or portico traced — the focal point on a modern front
• Landscape beds netted evenly — the finish that makes it look designed
• Cut on site, clipped, never stapled — nothing that voids a builder warranty

Maryville, Troy and Glen Carbon are one run for us, so scheduling is easy and repairs come at the standard price.
