Christmas light installation · Newport Beach, CA
Come home to a lit house in Newport Beach before Thanksgiving. We take it down in January.
Newport Beach knows Christmas lights: the Port Streets, Balboa Island at Boat Parade week, the bayfront on Lido, and the Mediterranean estates of Newport Coast and Crystal Cove all light up in December, and we hang lights that belong there.
- Commercial-grade C9 LED lights
- Free service all season
- Down by mid-January, stored by us
Based in Temecula, serving San Diego County, Orange County, and Riverside County.

Christmas light installation in Newport Beach, CA
Newport Beach is about an hour and fifteen minutes from our Temecula warehouse, and crews run it on dedicated coastal days through the season. We serve Newport Coast, Crystal Cove, Corona del Mar, Balboa Island, the Balboa Peninsula, Lido Isle, Dover Shores, Eastbluff, Big Canyon, Harbor View Hills, Newport Heights, and the Port Streets.
Salt air is the first thing we plan for. Consumer strings corrode at the socket within one season this close to the water, so every Newport Beach install uses commercial-grade C9 cord with sealed sockets and coastal-rated clips. Because CaliClaus owns the lights, a corroded strand is our problem to replace, never yours.
The homes range from 1970s two-stories in the Port Streets, where the whole neighborhood lights up and a house that skips it stands out, to bayfront customs on Balboa Island and Lido with docks and rooftop decks, to large Mediterranean estates behind the gates of Newport Coast and Crystal Cove with long tile rooflines, columns, and palms. We map each on satellite before the call and talk through which lines to light so the house reads from the street and, where it matters, from the water.
Guard gates in Newport Coast, Crystal Cove, and Big Canyon are routine for us; add CaliClaus to the list for install day and the January takedown. Associations here allow seasonal roofline lighting inside a window that typically runs mid-November through mid-January, and Balboa Island residents often want lights up before the Christmas Boat Parade in mid-December. Tell us your date and we plan backward from it.
How it works
Three steps. One phone call.
No site visit, no waiting a week for a bid. Our holiday light installers measure your roof from satellite imagery while you are on the phone.
02
We custom-cut your lights
Every strand is cut to your eaves and peaks, so the bulbs turn the corners cleanly and there is no dead tail hanging off the end. Cords are hidden. Clips, not nails.
03
Lit before Thanksgiving
Our crew installs in one visit, sets the timer, and texts you a photo that night. The balance is charged after install, never before.

What's included
One quote. Nothing extra.
You lease the lights for the season. Professional Christmas light installers handle everything on either side of it.
- Commercial-grade C9 LED lights. Warm white, faceted bulbs, the kind you see on hotels and wineries. Not the box-store strings.
- Custom cut to your roofline. Measured, cut, and capped for your house. Corners line up. No sagging, no gaps.
- Timer, set and forgotten. On at dusk, off at your bedtime. You never touch a switch.
- Free service all season. A bulb out or a section dark after a storm: message us, fixed within 48 hours, no charge.
- January takedown. We come back and take it all down without a reminder from you.
- We store them. Your set lives in our warehouse under your name. No boxes in your garage.
Three ways to light it
Pick a look. We cut it to your house.
Every home is different, so every set is custom. These are the three looks most homeowners start from.
Roofline
Warm-white C9 bulbs along the front eaves, corners lined up, cords hidden. The clean, classic look that makes the whole house glow from the street.
- Front roofline, custom cut to the eave
- Timer set to dusk and hidden cords
- Free service, January takedown, storage
Roofline + Walkway & Wreaths
The full roofline with every peak and gable outlined, C9 stakes along the walkway, and lit wreaths on the garage or front door. The house the street slows down for.
- Full roofline, peaks and gables
- Walkway stakes and lit wreaths with bows
- Timer, service, takedown, storage
Full Display
Everything above plus wrapped trees, garland on the rails, column wraps, and ridge lines. Designed on a call with Ram so the whole property reads as one piece.

Local questions
Newport Beach questions we hear on the phone
Can you have our lights up before the Newport Beach Christmas Boat Parade?
Yes, if you book early. Balboa Island, Lido, and the bayfront fill our coastal days fast in December, so the earlier you request, the better. Tell us the parade week matters and we schedule the install ahead of it.
How do you handle salt air on a bayfront or oceanfront home?
With commercial-grade C9 cord, sealed sockets, and coastal-rated clips. Consumer strings corrode at the socket within a season here. Because we own the lights, anything that wears is replaced at no cost, and free service all season covers any section that goes dark.
Do you install inside gated communities like Newport Coast and Crystal Cove?
Yes. Add CaliClaus to your gate list for install day and again for the January takedown. We text you the day before each visit, and nobody needs to be home.
