Christmas Light Installation in Bloomfield Hills, MI
5.0 from 792 Google reviews
Christmas light installation in Bloomfield Hills, where the houses are large and set back from the road. Glass Guru provides the lights, does every bit of the climbing and clears it all in January, so the long rooflines get lit without you on a ladder.

What Bloomfield Hills does to your roofline
Houses set far back from the street
With so few houses on so much land, a home here can sit well behind trees and a long drive. Lights that look bright up close can disappear from the road. Point out the rooflines that show from the street, and those are the ones we light.
Homes from many decades
The city's housing spans a lot of years: 16 percent predates 1950, 22 percent is from the 1960s and 23 percent from the 1980s. An older house with a steep pitch and a newer one with a long, low roof light differently, and we quote them that way.
A city inside a township
Bloomfield Township, a separate municipality, wraps around the city, and its homes are a little older: half were built before 1968. Not sure which side of the line your house is on? Write in with the street and number, and we'll look it up.

Why it happens in Bloomfield Hills
Bloomfield Hills homes are big and spread out
The City of Bloomfield Hills covers about five square miles and has 1,736 housing units, per Census Bureau estimates for 2020 to 2024. That works out to large lots, long drives and houses sized to match.
Half its homes are older than 1972, and 16 percent were built before 1950. Long eaves and several gables add up to a lot of roofline, and many hours on a ladder for one homeowner.
How we handle it in Bloomfield Hills
- We provide the lights.
- Long eaves and multiple gables lit in matching lines.
- The rooflines you can see from the road lit first, as you choose.
- Installs in the fall.
- January takedown included.
Questions
Christmas lights questions from Bloomfield Hills homeowners
Is Christmas light installation practical on a large Bloomfield Hills home?
Yes. Long eaves, several gables and a deep setback from the road mean more lights and more planning, and that's all it means. We quote the house by its rooflines, hang the lights in the fall and handle the takedown in January.
How is a Bloomfield Hills Christmas light installation priced?
By the roofline. Total length comes first, then the height of each section, the pitch and how many gables and dormers break it up. On bigger homes those numbers add up, so each one gets its own quote. Lights, labor and the removal after the holidays are all in the price.
Can I book Christmas light installation if I live in Bloomfield Township?
Send us the address. Bloomfield Township wraps around the city, and a lot of township homes use a Bloomfield Hills mailing address. We'll tell you whether the house is on our route when we reply with a quote.
When are the lights taken down in Bloomfield Hills?
January. Removal comes with the install and happens after the holidays, with nothing for you to arrange. On a big house that's a lot of roofline to clear in the cold, and you won't have to do any of it.
Which rooflines should I light for Christmas light installation in Bloomfield Hills?
Light the ones people can see. On a deep lot that's the front eaves and the gables facing the drive. Walk to the end of your driveway after dark, note what's visible, and put it in your request. We'll light those lines.
The detail
Christmas lights in Bloomfield Hills, explained
Cranbrook and the Woodward corridor
Bloomfield Hills sits on the Woodward corridor, about twenty miles northwest of downtown Detroit, and it's home to Cranbrook. The city counted 4,470 residents in the 2020 census. With that few people across five square miles, houses are far apart, and each lit house stands on its own at night.
What the service includes
Three things, all from us: supplying the lights, putting them up, and bringing them down in January. Which rooflines, and what color, is your call. Nobody in the house climbs a ladder, and nothing waits on your list after the holidays.
When Bloomfield Hills should book
September or October is the time to call. A large house needs more time on the ladder, and frost becomes possible from the second half of October. Book early and your install lands on a dry roof.
