You've already seen our work — downtown Madras is lit by us, all year.
We're the local crew behind downtown Madras's lighting — the permanent glow that's up all year, and the full holiday layer we add every winter. Headquartered right here on SW 4th since 2006. Permanent architectural lighting and full-service holiday displays for Jefferson County businesses, properties, and public spaces. We carry the liability, the storage, and the ladders. You get the credit.
The lights downtown? Those are ours.
Downtown Madras isn't lit just for the holidays — it's lit all year. The permanent architectural lighting along the rooflines and trees is our work, maintained year-round. Then every winter we layer a full holiday display on top of it — the glow people drive in from across Jefferson County to see. Folks all over Oregon know that downtown. And the crew behind it isn't bidding from out of town sight unseen — we're headquartered right here on SW 4th.
- Permanent downtown lighting up all year — plus a full holiday layer each winter
- We hold the City of Madras downtown contract
- Headquartered in Madras since 2006 — your neighbors, not a traveling vendor
From downtown Madras to Main Streets across Oregon.
The City of Madras trusts us with downtown — and so do these businesses, brands, resorts, and cities around the state.
Selected clients across resorts, retail, auto, hospitality, civic & downtown — full reference list on request.
When downtown glows, the dark storefronts look twice as dark.
Downtown Madras stays lit all year — and come the holidays it turns up to a full glow that pulls people in after dark. The buildings that aren't lit feel it. Customers drift toward what's bright, warm, and worth a photo. The question for your block: are you part of the glow, or the gap in it?
It was never the lights. It's the vendor.
A glowing downtown is the upside. What actually stops a project is the downside — a public, visible failure with your name attached to it.
The cost overrun
A "we'll figure it out" quote that balloons mid-project — and a budget conversation you have to defend in public.
Lights that fail mid-season
Half a block goes dark the week of the tree lighting, and there's no one to call. The photos still get taken.
"Who picked these people?"
The one question no administrator wants at a council meeting. The wrong vendor isn't a line item — it's career-shaped.
So we built the company to remove every one of those risks — before you ever have to weigh them.
We take the risk off your desk.
Every reason a project feels dangerous — we've already handled it, in writing.
Fixed-price proposal
The number we quote is the number you pay. No overruns to explain to council.
Lifetime guarantee
If a light ever fails, we replace it. A dark run is our problem, not your staff's.

Talk to the cities and businesses we already light. We'll hand you the list.
Whether you answer to a council or a P&L.
A downtown the whole town brags about.
Council-ready proposals, multi-year contracts, and a partner who makes you look good — season after season.
For cities & agenciesThe property people slow down for.
Permanent brand-color lighting or full-service seasonal displays — leased, maintained, and run for you.
For businessLight it once for the year — or have us run the whole season.
Most clients use both. Pick the one that fits the building and the budget; we handle everything from there.
Architectural lighting
A color-matched channel mounts under the eave and disappears into the trim by day. Brand colors every night, holiday scenes on a schedule, sixteen million colors from your phone — and nothing to take down.
How permanent worksFull-service holiday displays
Commercial-grade rooflines, wrapped trees, garland and wreaths — installed on schedule, serviced through the season, taken down in the new year, and stored by us until next time.
Plan this seasonThe brightest building on the block wins the night.
Shops on 4th and 5th, businesses along the Highway 97 corridor, clinics, offices, and dealerships — when downtown is already glowing, the lit storefront is the one that gets the customer. We make yours the standout, all season, with nothing for you to hang or store.
- Boom-lift certified crews and specialty equipment for multi-story facades and high structures
- One point of contact across every property you manage — statewide in Oregon
- Lease & financing available, including CAM-eligible structures for commercial tenants
We already do this for the City of Madras.
Downtown Madras is the proof: permanent lighting we keep running all year, with a holiday layer added each winter — on a calendar, on a fixed budget, fully insured. Parks, civic buildings, gateways, and Main Streets across Jefferson County work the same way.
We build our own lights
Manufactured in-house and built to custom specs for a public project — colors, lengths, and fittings made to spec, not pulled off a shelf.
Multi-year contracts
We hold your design, inventory, and install schedule so each season starts where the last one left off.
Licensed, bonded & insured
Oregon CCB #257964, with GL and workers' comp. Additional-insured certificates on request.
Service & maintenance contracts
We don't install and leave. A dark run is on us, not on your staff, for the life of the agreement.
Special shifts for public safety
Roadways, airports, and public buildings can't always be worked by day. We schedule around closures and access windows.
Certified & equipped for scale
Boom-lift certified crews and specialty aerial equipment owned in-house — the gear large municipal contracts require.
We hand you a yes the council can't argue with.
You shouldn't have to build the case alone. We do the work for you — a budget-ready proposal you can walk straight into a council meeting and get approved.
- A fixed price and a clear scope — no "it depends"
- Guidance on which budget or fund it fits, and how to phase it across years
- ROI and foot-traffic talking points, with references to back them up
- Start with one signature block; expand on a schedule you control
Picture next December: your property — or your whole town — glowing, people lingering, the photos everywhere, and everyone asking who finally made it happen.
Start with one project. Build it bigger every year.
You don't have to light everything in year one. The smartest clients — businesses and cities alike — start with one signature project, then grow the footprint every season. Lower risk to commit, and a result that gets better with your name on it.
The signature piece
One façade, tree, or block done beautifully — the photo everyone shares.
Extend the footprint
Add the adjoining buildings, streets, or a centerpiece tree. Momentum builds on its own.
Tie it together
Entrances, gateways, parking, and parks turn it into a true destination.
The tradition people expect
A look customers and residents plan around — improving every single season.
Ready to light up Madras — with zero risk to you?
Get my free assessmentPut it up once. Then forget it's there.
For clients done with the annual install-and-remove cycle. Installed once, invisible by day, and controlled from an app the rest of the year.
- Invisible by day — sealed modules read as trim; nothing on the roof or gutters
- Year-round value — brand colors nightly, team colors on game day, holidays on a schedule
- Run from your phone — sixteen million colors and scenes, set once
- Lifetime materials guarantee — a failed component is replaced for as long as you own the property
Four steps. Zero ladders for you.
Free site assessment
We walk the property, take measurements, and learn how you want it to look and run.
Fixed-price proposal
A clear design and a fixed number — purchase or lease, with financing options spelled out.
Professional install
Our licensed, boom-lift certified crew installs to the calendar, clean and on time.
Maintained for you
Seasonal: serviced, removed, and stored. Permanent: a service engineer keeps your programs running.
Two things that make a yes easy.
The hardware doesn't have to be a capital fight, and the software doesn't have to be your problem.
Spread the cost over time instead of paying up front. For commercial properties it's CAM-eligible — it can live in the operating budget rather than on your books as new fixtures.
A dedicated engineer maintains your system, programs, and software — seasonal changes, scene updates, and repairs from one number. You don't manage the lighting. We do.
One crew for every surface in town.
Two decades lighting Oregon's landmarks.
Resorts, downtowns, airports, dealerships, and civic buildings — including a 110-foot tree, hand-lit top to bottom, off I-5.
The crew that builds its own lights.
Formerly Christmas Lights Factory. Family-owned since 2006, and one of Oregon's highest-rated professional installers.
We manufacture our own product
Consistent quality, parts in stock, and custom builds for jobs other companies turn down.
Equipped for scale
Boom-lift certified crews and specialty aerial equipment owned in-house.
Backed for life
Lease programs and a lifetime materials guarantee on permanent systems.
If a light ever fails, we replace it — for as long as you own the property.
Permanent architectural systems carry a lifetime materials guarantee. A failed component is replaced, no argument.
Seasonal installs are serviced for the length of the contract. A dark run on the roofline is a phone call, not your problem.
Not all "lighting guys" are the same.

Don't take our word for it. Take theirs.
Two decades of work you can verify — and a reference list we'll hand you before you commit a dollar.
Everything you need to defend the yes.
Emotion gets a project started; logic gets it approved. We arm you with both.
Good questions, answered.
Are you actually local to Madras?
Yes — we're headquartered on SW 4th Street in Madras and have been lighting Oregon since 2006. When you call, you reach the crew that already works downtown, not a call center or a contractor driving in from out of the area.
Do you really light downtown Madras?
We do — year-round. The permanent lighting downtown is ours, kept running all year, and we add the full holiday display each winter. It's the best example of how we run a public lighting program, and we'd hold your building or block to that same standard.
What happens if a light goes out mid-season?
It's on us, not your staff. Permanent systems carry a lifetime materials guarantee, and seasonal installs are serviced for the full length of the contract. One call and we're out to fix it.
How do you keep the price from creeping up?
The proposal is fixed-price with a clear scope written out, so there's nothing to renegotiate halfway through and nothing awkward to explain to a council or an owner later.
Can we talk to other Madras-area clients first?
Absolutely. We'll hand you a reference list — the City of Madras and businesses around Jefferson County and beyond — so you can hear it from them before you commit a dollar.
We can't fund the whole project this year — is that a problem?
Not at all. Most clients start with one signature piece — a storefront, a tree, a stretch of Main Street — then grow it every season. Lease options can spread the cost over time, and for commercial properties the lease can be CAM-eligible.
What's the difference between permanent and seasonal lighting?
Permanent architectural lighting is installed once, hides in the trim by day, and runs from an app year-round. Seasonal is a full-service holiday display we install, maintain, remove, and store each year. Plenty of Madras clients use both.
How big a job can you take on?
From a single storefront on 4th to multi-building campuses, full downtown corridors, and 100-foot-plus trees. We're boom-lift certified and own the aerial equipment larger jobs require.
Are you licensed and insured for public work?
Yes — Oregon CCB #257964, with general liability and workers' comp, and additional-insured certificates on request. We schedule around closures and public-safety access when the job calls for it.
Who maintains everything after install?
We do. Seasonal displays are serviced all season; permanent systems get a dedicated service engineer who keeps your programs, scenes, and software current.
How far beyond Madras do you serve?
All of Jefferson County and across Oregon — from Madras, Culver, and Metolius out to Bend, Redmond, Sisters, and the wider state.
