Old money streets and older trees.
Vancouver's west side has the best residential architecture in the province and a canopy to match. We light both — designed, installed, serviced and removed.
Putting up your own lights in a Vancouver December is a cold, soaking, genuinely risky way to lose a weekend.
You drag the tangled box out of the garage and half the strand is dead. Now you are on a ladder against wet, mossy eaves in steady rain, fingers numb, with the light gone by half past four.
Hours later it is… fine. A little crooked over the garage. And after the first outflow wind pulls a run loose, you get to climb back up and do it again.
There's a better way — and homeowners across the Lower Mainland have already found it.
Imagine doing absolutely nothing — and having the best lights on the street.
Whether you are in Shaughnessy or Kerrisdale, in Dunbar or Point Grey, on Arbutus Ridge, or in a Kitsilano character home — you never see a ladder.
- Custom-designed for your home — not generic store strands

Shaughnessy was laid out by the CPR with curving streets and a tree on every lot.
The CPR planned Shaughnessy in 1907 as a garden suburb for its executives — curving boulevards, huge lots and a planting scheme that is now a century-old canopy.
That thinking spread west: Kerrisdale, Dunbar and Point Grey all have mature street trees and heritage housing stock, much of it with the original woodwork still in place.
Century-old houses under century-old trees are the best possible canvas — and the worst possible DIY project.
We light every street in Vancouver.
We are not a national chain parachuting in with a truck of generic strands. Elevated Holiday Lights is locally owned and operated, working across the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley:
Built for a Vancouver winter.
The city takes comfortably over a metre of rain a year, almost all of it between October and March, and the canopy keeps everything damp long after it stops. Moss on the eaves is the normal condition here, not the exception.
- Roughly 1,200–1,700 mm of rain a year: sealed, weather-rated connections instead of the open sockets that corrode by December
- Fraser Valley outflow winds: low-profile, properly anchored installs rated to hold when the Arctic outflow comes down the valley
- Freeze–thaw and wet snow: hardware that tolerates repeated freezing and the weight of wet coastal snow on a loaded run
- Constant coastal damp and moss: commercial-grade housings built for air that never really dries out between November and March
Not a franchise. Not a truck full of generic strands.
Commercial-grade, not retail
Professional LEDs, connectors and mounting rated for Pacific Northwest rain and Fraser Valley outflow — not the big-box strands that fail by mid-December.
Four packages, one standard
Classic, Professional, Premier and Legacy Glow differ in scope, never in workmanship. The smallest job gets the same crew and the same finish.
Heritage homes, handled properly
Original woodwork, deep eaves and steep character rooflines need damage-free mounting and a careful hand — never staples into heritage trim.
Locally owned and operated
Elevated Holiday Lights is a Lower Mainland business with local crews, not a seasonal franchise working out of a van for eight weeks.
Takedown and storage included
We remove everything in January, leave the property clean, and store your materials until next season. You never handle a strand.
Mature canopy
Century-old street trees shape what is actually possible on a west-side lot. We design around the canopy rather than through it.
One local team for every kind of light.
Classic Glow
Clean, warm roofline lighting done properly — designed, installed, maintained through the season and taken down in January. The straightforward option, done to a professional standard.
Explore Classic Glow →
Professional Glow
Rooflines, trees, entrances and landscape features designed together as one scheme, with colour and intensity planned for how your property reads from the street.
Explore Professional Glow →
Premier Glow & Legacy
Our fullest residential packages — bespoke design, custom-cut runs, feature trees and architectural detail, for properties where the display is expected to be the best on the street.

How much does holiday lighting cost in Vancouver, BC?
Every property is different — a Shaughnessy three-storey, a Kerrisdale character home and a Kitsilano duplex all need different designs. We give you a clear, fixed quote up front. Start with the form or call (778) 200-7476.
Can you work on a heritage home without damaging it?
Yes — it is a large part of what we do on the west side. Damage-free mounting on original trim and eaves, never staples, with everything removed cleanly in January.
Which Glow package suits Vancouver?
Classic Glow covers clean roofline lighting. Professional Glow adds trees, entrances and landscape features designed as one scheme. Premier and Legacy Glow are our fullest custom packages. We will recommend one after seeing the property — there is no pressure to take the largest.
What if a light goes out mid-season?
It is our problem, not yours. Contact us and we will put it right — season-long service is included, not an extra.
Do you take the lights down too?
Yes — takedown is included in every package. We remove everything in January, leave the property clean, and store your materials until next season.
Are you insured?
Yes. Elevated Holiday Lights is fully insured and WorkSafeBC covered, and our crews are trained for ladder and roof work so you never have to be.
