Christmas Light Installation in Hurricane, UT
We install Christmas lights on homes in Hurricane. We supply the lights, hang them, come back if a section goes out during the season, and take everything down and store it in January.

Hurricane has no climate record of its own; freeze timing uses St. George's valley readings.
Hurricane sits a bit higher than St. George, and it shows
Hurricane is at 3,258 feet, about seven hundred feet above St. George’s 2,530. That is not a different climate the way Cedar City is, but it is enough that the mornings turn over slightly sooner and the wind coming off the ledge is a bigger factor than temperature.
The practical timing is the same as St. George’s: NOAA’s record puts the first freezing mornings in the valley around November 12, with about sixty freezing mornings a year.
So the comfortable install window is October into the first ten days of November, and it is the same fortnight every installer in Washington County is working. Those figures are St. George’s valley readings — there is no Hurricane-specific climate record to quote.
Wind, and why it matters more here than temperature
The thing that actually pulls a display down in this part of Washington County is not cold, it is wind loading on a long run — a strand that is slightly too tight, or clipped with the wrong clip for that roof edge, comes away in the first real blow and takes a section with it.
That is a workmanship issue, not a weather issue, and it is the difference between a display that sits out the season and one you are calling someone about in the second week of December.
Runs get enough slack to move, and clips get matched to the edge they sit on — tile, shingle, gutter or fascia. Nothing nailed, screwed or stapled into the house.

What goes on the house
The roofline
C9 bulbs cut to your roofline, so nothing hangs off the end.
The entry
Garland and wreaths wired into the same run.
The cords
Cut to length and tucked away: one cord, one outlet, one timer.
Hurricane, Quail Creek and the growth corridor
Hurricane had about 20,036 people at the 2020 Census and it is one of the faster-growing parts of Washington County, which in practice means a lot of newer subdivisions with clean, simple rooflines — the kind of house where a straightforward roofline run looks excellent and costs less than a complicated older house.
Quail Creek State Park is just outside town on 5300 West, and the neighborhoods out that way are more exposed than the older grid in the center, which is a wind consideration rather than a temperature one.

Permanent lighting in Hurricane
A fixed color-changing channel under the eave, run from an app, invisible in daylight — and on the newer, simpler rooflines common here it is a clean install. See permanent lighting.

FAQ
Questions people ask
Something else on your mind? Call (435) 357-0411 and ask us.
When should I book in Hurricane?
September or October. Freezing mornings in the valley start around November 12 and every installer in Washington County is working the same early-November fortnight.
My lights came down in the wind last year. Why?
Almost always a run hung too tight, or the wrong clip for that roof edge. Runs need slack to move, and clips have to match the edge — tile, shingle, gutter or fascia.
Will it damage a tile roof?
Not if the clips are right for tile. Nothing is nailed, screwed or stapled into the roof or fascia.
When is takedown?
January, on a date we schedule with you, and we store everything until next season.
