Christmas Light Installation in Falls Church, VA

Lighting a house in Falls Church.

Falls Church blocks read all at once. Lots are small and the houses sit close together, so nobody ever sees your display on its own. They see it with both neighbors in the same glance. That is worth knowing before anyone buys a single strand, because on a street like this a warm white line that runs straight and stops where the roof stops looks better than a larger display heading in three directions at once. Restraint is a real advantage here, and it happens to be the cheaper option.

The houses themselves are a mix that keeps getting wider. Nineteen-twenties bungalows and postwar capes sit next to new builds more than twice their size, sometimes four doors apart. The older ones have low eaves, deep porches and dormers, which makes them detail work rather than long runs. The newer ones have height and clean fascia to use. And the street trees, which are the best thing about these neighborhoods, will screen a roofline from the sidewalk in half the yards here, so porch and walkway lighting often carries more of the job than the roof does.

We work throughout Falls Church and the area around it, including The City of Falls Church, East Falls Church, Broad Street, Sleepy Hollow, Seven Corners and the streets off Route 7 and Route 29.
