Christmas Lighting in Barrie.

Christmas lights, the Barrie way

Barrie is a big-roofline town. The newer south-end subdivisions around Painswick and Ardagh are full of two-storey great-room peaks and steep gables — exactly the November ladder work no homeowner should be doing on frozen ground. Downtown and the old east end bring century homes with decorative trim that reward a proper custom-cut design instead of a box of store-bought lights. And out along Kempenfelt Bay and toward Shanty Bay, lakefront homes light up twice — once from the street and once off the water. If your place shows to the bay, tell us and we design for both sightlines.

Barrie tip: prime install dates fill by early November, and returning clients get the 20% Early Elf discount for October installs. Lights can go up early and stay dark until you flip the switch.

What it costs and what’s included

$8 per linear foot, all-inclusive — design, commercial-grade LEDs custom-cut to your home (nothing to buy), installation, free 48-hour in-season maintenance under our No-Lights-Out Guarantee, takedown when the weather allows, and off-season storage at our shop. Most Barrie homes land between $800 and $3,500, with the average around $1,500. And 5% of every install goes to The Lighthouse in Orillia — your lights brighten more than your own street.

Where we hang in Barrie

Allandale, downtown and the east end, Painswick, Ardagh, Holly, the south-end subdivisions, and out toward Shanty Bay — plus neighbouring Innisfil, Springwater, and Oro-Medonte.
