Holiday Lighting in River Oaks
Full-service holiday lighting in River Oaks
A River Oaks home calls for a display that's grand without being gaudy, and that balance is our craft. Hand the whole project to Top Tier — design, professional installation, in-season service, takedown and storage — for an estate-worthy result you simply enjoy.
01
A local team that knows River Oaks
River Oaks has been on our routes for more than a decade — the boulevard estates, the streets near the Country Club, the live oaks that define the neighborhood. We're a greater-Houston company, and the people who design your display install it, with the work kept discreet from first visit to last.
02
Everything handled, start to finish
Every part of the season is ours to manage. We design and install, service the display through the holidays, then remove and store it afterward — fully insured and CLIPA certified. Hidden clips and clean runs protect the rooflines and gutters on a grand, tree-shaded estate.
03
Pro-grade C9 lights you own
Your lights are a one-time purchase, not a yearly rental — commercial-grade, faceted C9 LEDs, custom-cut to your roofline and warrantied three years. They trace a long estate roofline in one crisp, even, understated line that suits a River Oaks address.
Our Process
How we install Christmas lights in River Oaks
The lights are a one-time purchase; the season after is ours to handle. Here's how a River Oaks project unfolds, with as little disruption to you as possible.
- Step 1
Design
We walk the estate — the boulevard frontage, the live oaks, the long entry — and design a display that flatters the architecture and the grounds, refined to your taste.
- Step 2
Professional installation
Our crew custom-cuts each strand on site, conceals the clips and cords, sets the timers, and safely reaches the tall rooflines and mature oaks an estate carries — careful with the landscaping throughout.
- Step 3
In-season maintenance
If anything dims or shifts during the holidays, we return promptly and put it right at no charge, so the display stays flawless through the season.
- Step 4
Takedown & storage
After the holidays we remove everything and store it off-site, labeled to your home, so nothing is left behind and next year is a single call.
Pick Your Look
Four ways to light up your home
From elegant and understated to all-out Griswold. Not sure which fits your house? Our designers will help you choose.
The Griswolds
Over-the-top and proud of it — vibrant colors and enough wattage to be seen from space. Warning: may cause neighborhood envy.
Classic Winter
Warm white lights outline your home's best features for a welcoming, timeless glow — traditional holiday charm, Texas style.
Fully Custom
Have something else in mind? Share your vision — a Texas-themed display or a palette matched to your home — and we'll bring it to life.

Common Questions
River Oaks holiday lighting questions
Do you serve all of River Oaks?
Yes — from the estates along River Oaks Boulevard and the Country Club area to Avalon Place, Shadyside and Tall Timbers. We also light neighboring Memorial, Tanglewood and Montrose.
How much does Christmas light installation cost in River Oaks?
Pricing is set per estate, since a large home with mature live oaks and a long roofline is a different undertaking than a more modest one. It follows the scope, the height, any tree wrapping and the look you want — we'll prepare a detailed, no-obligation quote.
When should I book for the holiday season?
Early. River Oaks books out well before Thanksgiving — most installs run from late October through November, and prime dates go first. Reach out in early fall to secure your spot.
Can you light estate properties and the large live oaks?
That's exactly our specialty. We wrap the towering live oaks, outline long rooflines and grand entries, and light hedges and walkways — the kind of refined, even display a River Oaks home calls for.
Do I own the lights, and who takes them down?
You own them after a one-time purchase of the pro-grade C9s — never a yearly rental. We handle everything else: design, installation, in-season service, takedown and off-site storage, all under a 3-year warranty, so you never handle a ladder or a tangle of cords.
