Holiday Lighting in West University Place
Full-service holiday lighting in West University Place
West U packs a lot of character onto close, tree-lined lots, and a tasteful display makes the most of it. Hand the whole project to Top Tier — design, professional installation, in-season service, takedown and storage — for clean results and none of the hassle.
01
A local team that knows West U
West University Place is a regular stop for our crews each December — the bungalow streets, the new two-stories, the blocks around Rice Village and Colonial Park. We're a greater-Houston company, so you talk to the people who actually design and install your display.
02
Everything handled, start to finish
We run the whole season for you. Design and installation, service through the holidays, then takedown and storage at the end — fully insured and CLIPA certified. Hidden clips and clean runs keep your roofline tidy, and our crews work neatly on close-together West U lots.
03
Pro-grade C9 lights you own
Buy once and the lights are yours — commercial-grade, faceted C9 LEDs, never a yearly rental. Cut to your roofline and warrantied three years, they give a West U home a crisp, even line that looks right on the street, not oversized.
Our Process
How we install Christmas lights in West University Place
You buy the lights once, and the season after is on us. Here's how a West U project comes together, tidily and on schedule.
- Step 1
Design
We start at the home — bungalow or new two-story — and design a clean display scaled to the lot and the trees, in the style you prefer, nothing oversized for the street.
- Step 2
Professional installation
Our crew cuts each strand on site, hides the clips and cords, sets the timers, and works neatly on West U's close-together lots — in and out without disrupting the block.
- Step 3
In-season maintenance
If a bulb fails or a strand slips during the season, we come back and fix it at no charge, so the display stays sharp through the holidays.
- Step 4
Takedown & storage
After the holidays we remove everything and store it labeled to your home, so your garage stays clear and next year is a single call.

Common Questions
West University Place holiday lighting questions
Do you serve all of West University Place?
Yes — throughout West U and Southside Place, from Pemberton and Collegeview to the streets around Rice Village and Colonial Park. We also light neighboring Bellaire, Tanglewood and the Museum District.
How much does Christmas light installation cost in West U?
Pricing is set per home. West U's lots sit close together, but the houses vary widely — a two-story with dormers is a different install than a craftsman bungalow — so the quote follows the roofline, the height, any tree wrapping and the look you want. We'll send a detailed estimate.
When should I book for the holiday season?
Early. West U 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 do clean, tasteful roofline lighting on a tight lot?
That's exactly what we do best in West U — crisp, even rooflines custom-cut to the home, neatly wrapped entry trees, and clean hidden power runs, with no clutter and nothing oversized for the street.
Do I own the lights, and who takes them down?
You own them after a one-time purchase of the pro-grade C9s — not a yearly rental. We handle the rest: design, installation, in-season service, takedown and storage, all under a 3-year warranty, so you never climb a ladder or store a tangle of strands.
