Christmas Light Installation in Carolina Forest

Carolina Forest is one of the busiest places on the Grand Strand to be a homeowner in December. Between school pickup, work and family coming into town, there isn’t much time left for climbing a ladder on a cold evening to untangle last year’s lights. That’s why Always Green Landscaping now offers all-inclusive holiday lighting for Carolina Forest homes, handled by the same local crew that already takes care of yards across the Grand Strand.

Built around Carolina Forest homes

Most homes in Carolina Forest’s neighborhoods are newer construction with defined rooflines, front-facing garages, gables and plenty of two-story designs. Those features look great lit, but they’re also where DIY lighting gets risky. We measure your roofline by satellite from your address, so we can price your home without a site visit. Then we design runs for each section, like the front gutter, the peaks and the garage, and cut them to length in our shop before install day.

Two-story homes are welcome. Our crew uses stabilized ladders and fall protection on every two-story job, and the price simply adjusts (+20%) for the extra height.

HOA-friendly by design

Many Carolina Forest communities have HOA guidelines about holiday decorations, including timing, colors or placement. Tell us your community on the quote form, and we’ll design to your HOA’s rules. If your HOA requires approval, we’ll give you a simple design summary to submit. And because we use clips only, never nails or staples, there’s no damage to gutters or shingles to worry about.

What’s included

Every package is all-inclusive:

  • Custom design for your roofline
  • Commercial-grade LED C9 lights in warm white or multicolor (we supply them, so you don’t buy anything)
  • Clips, timer and professional installation
  • Free bulb and run fixes within 48 hours, all season
  • Takedown in January and storage until next year

2026 packages (single-story): Essential from $549 (up to 100 ft of front roofline), Signature from $949 (up to 175 ft, two shrubs and a lit wreath), and Showcase from $1,695 (up to 300 ft, two palm or tree wraps, walkway lights and two wreaths). Current Always Green customers save on every package, starting at $499.

Add the finishing touches

Carolina Forest landscaping often includes palms, crape myrtles and foundation shrubs. That’s where our landscape background shows. Add palm trunk wraps ($125), full trunk-and-canopy palm wraps ($225), shrub nets ($45), lit wreaths or walkway lights. Want the whole yard holiday-ready? Our Holiday Ready bundle adds a leaf cleanup and fresh pine straw in the same visit window, with 10% off the cleanup.

Neighbors save together

We schedule installs by area, and Carolina Forest has its own install days. When a neighbor on your street books too, you each get $50 off. It’s an easy way to light up a whole block.
