Christmas lights for every Calgary neighbourhood

Calgary homes range from 1950s bungalows in Capitol Hill and Haysboro to three-storey builds in Mahogany and Evanston. Roof pitch, gutter style and eave height all change how we clip a line, so we plan each install for the house in front of us.

Chinooks can swing the temperature 20 degrees in an afternoon. Freeze and thaw is hard on cheap clips and loose runs, which is why every custom strand our Elves hang is clipped and checked, not draped.

City trees are our signature. Mature elms and spruce on older streets make some of the best wraps in town, and we'll tell you honestly how high we can safely go.

Inner-city lots are narrow and close together, so a crisp roofline on the front face does most of the work.
