How Holiday Lighting Works in Broken Horn

We supply the lights — commercial-grade LED strands cut and fitted to your specific roofline rather than retail boxes stretched to fit — and they stay our equipment, so you are not storing a garage full of strands. Installation, mid-season service if a run fails, takedown in January and off-season storage are all part of it. Pricing is quoted per roofline after we look at the house, because a single-story ranch and a two-story with dormers are not the same job. Across about 151 acres the pattern barely varies here.

Clipped, Not Stapled — and Gutters First

Every run is measured and cut to your eaves so the line follows the architecture. Strands attach with purpose-made clips onto the shingle edge or gutter lip: no staples, no nails, nothing driven through flashing or fascia. Because lights clip to the same gutter edge that has to drain all winter, we book gutter cleaning before installation wherever a home needs both — an ice dam under a lit roofline pulls clips and strands off with it when it lets go. On Broken Horn's newer builds the warranty paperwork usually still matters, so we work in a way that will not give anyone a reason to void it.

The Boise Variable

Two things drive this in Boise: untreated irrigation water off the canal system, and decomposed granite off the foothills, plus the winter inversion that traps particulate at ground level for weeks at a time. Separately each is manageable. Together they bond, and that is the condition we are actually treating on a Broken Horn job. At about 151 acres, Broken Horn is small enough that neighbours booking together is genuinely cheaper for everyone.

Doing It on One Visit

Most Broken Horn customers book this alongside gutter cleaning. Partly that is price, partly sequence — washing walls after cleaning glass puts dirty water back on clean panes, and hanging lights before clearing gutters means working around your own strands in January.

The Honest Limits

We hang, service, remove and store the lights. We do not do electrical work, we will not overload a circuit to make a display bigger, and we do not install on rooflines we judge unsafe to work in winter conditions. We are locally owned and fully insured, and we would rather point you to the right trade than take work we cannot finish well.
