The air is getting crisp, pumpkins are appearing on doorsteps, and before you know it, the holiday season will be in full swing. If you’re like most homeowners, you probably wait until November to tackle your holiday lighting, but the best time to schedule your installation is actually a month earlier in October.”
At Johnny Tsunami, we’ve seen firsthand how early planning transforms the holiday decorating experience from stressful scramble to seamless celebration. October is the golden window for booking your professional holiday light installation.
Beat the November Rush
The holiday lighting industry experiences a massive surge in demand starting November 1st. Professional installers see their schedules fill rapidly as Thanksgiving approaches, with the two weeks surrounding the holiday representing the busiest booking period of the year.
When you schedule in October, you’re securing your spot before the calendar fills up. This means you get:
- Priority scheduling with installation dates that work for your timeline
- More attention to detail since installers aren’t racing against the holiday countdown
- Guaranteed service instead of being added to a waiting list
- Your preferred installation date rather than whatever slots remain available
Professional installation companies only have so many crews and so many daylight hours. By the time Thanksgiving approaches, the best installers are completely booked. Don’t let procrastination leave your home in the dark this holiday season.
Take Advantage of Ideal Weather Conditions
October weather offers a sweet spot for outdoor installation work. The temperatures are still moderate, making it safer and more comfortable for installation crews to work at heights.
By late November and December, you’re dealing with:
- Potential ice and snow on roofs
- Shorter daylight hours limiting installation windows
- Weather delays that push your installation date back repeatedly
October’s dry, mild conditions mean your installation can proceed smoothly without weather-related complications. Your lights will be up and tested well before the weather gets colder, and any adjustments can be made while conditions are still favorable.
Enjoy the Holidays Without the Hassle
Between Thanksgiving prep, family gatherings, shopping for gifts, and all the cooking that comes with the season, the last thing you need is one more project to coordinate. Climbing ladders, untangling lights, and trying to remember which strand worked last year—it’s exhausting just thinking about it.
When you schedule your holiday light installation in October, you can truly relax and enjoy the season. Picture this: Thanksgiving arrives, your family pulls into the driveway, and your home is already glowing beautifully. No last-minute scrambling, no installation crews working around your holiday plans, and no worrying whether everything will be ready in time.
October scheduling means you can focus on what really matters—time with loved ones, cherished traditions, and making memories that last far beyond the holiday season.
Skip the Ladder and Leave It to the Professionals
Let’s be honest: climbing up on the roof to hang lights isn’t what it used to be. Whether it’s your knees reminding you of your age or simply not having the time between work and family commitments, holiday light installation has become more of a chore than a joy.
That’s where Johnny Tsunami comes in. Our experienced team handles everything from design to installation to takedown after the season. When you book in October, we have the time to do things right:
- Carefully inspect every bulb and connection
- Secure everything properly so it withstands winter weather
- Test the entire display before we leave
- Make sure you know exactly how to operate your lights
No more wobbly ladders, tangled extension cords, or trips to the hardware store for replacement bulbs. Just beautiful, professional lighting that works perfectly all season long.
Create the Display You’ve Always Imagined
Remember driving through neighborhoods as a kid, marveling at those houses with the spectacular light displays? With October scheduling, that can be your home.
When you’re not rushing to get lights up before Thanksgiving, our team at Johnny Tsunami can work with you to design something truly special. Want elegant white lights along the roofline? Colorful displays that make the grandkids squeal with delight? Classic candles in every window? We’ll take the time to understand your vision and bring it to life.
And here’s the best part: if you decide something needs adjusting after we install it, there’s still plenty of time to make it perfect before you flip the switch for the season.
Perfect for Commercial Properties
Planning ahead and scheduling early is even more important for businesses. Commercial holiday displays often require more extensive planning and coordination. Starting in October allows time for:
- Custom design consultations that align with your brand
- Coordinating with property management or building owners
- Creating displays that drive customer traffic throughout the entire season
A beautifully lit commercial property attracts customers and creates a welcoming atmosphere that can boost holiday season sales.
The Bottom Line
October isn’t too early for holiday lights. It’s actually the smartest time to schedule your installation. You’ll enjoy better availability, favorable weather, reduced stress, potential cost savings, and the longest possible enjoyment of your beautiful holiday display.
Don’t wait until you’re competing with everyone else for limited installation slots. Contact Johnny Tsunami for professional holiday light installation this October and start the season off right.
