November always feels like a transition month. Halloween is over, Thanksgiving is coming fast, and the weather finally feels like winter is on the way. It’s that short window where people start planning their holiday gatherings, cleaning up their yards, and thinking about decorations. And every year, more homeowners choose to bring in professionals to help them get holiday-ready — especially when it comes to outdoor Christmas lights.
At Baker Softwash, November is when our phones start ringing nonstop. Homeowners want their homes to look warm, welcoming, and festive before family arrives. If you’re wondering whether it’s worth booking your Christmas light installation now instead of waiting until December, here’s exactly why November is the perfect time for a holiday glow-up.
1. Your Home Looks Better When Decorations Aren’t Rushed
Let’s be honest — nobody wants to decorate in the freezing cold. When you wait until mid-December, the weather is harsher, ladders get slippery, and installation windows get tighter. By scheduling your lights in November, your setup gets the full attention it deserves.
No rushing.
No last-minute stress.
No worrying about whether the weather will cooperate.
You get a well-planned, clean, and polished display that looks like it came straight out of a holiday magazine.
2. You’ll Finally Enjoy the Lights Longer
Most homeowners don’t actually get to enjoy their decorations as long as they’d like. They put up Christmas lights around December 10–15, only to take them down a couple of weeks later. That’s a lot of effort for very little time.
When you schedule in early or mid-November, you get a full month or more of holiday glow. Your home becomes a cheerful sight during Thanksgiving weekend, not just during Christmas week.
It’s a simple upgrade that instantly makes the season feel longer and more joyful.
3. November Installations Are Safer for Everyone
Climbing ladders in cold weather can be dangerous — especially when roofs are damp or covered in leaves. That’s one of the biggest reasons homeowners call us instead of trying to do it themselves.
Our team at Baker Softwash uses proper equipment, commercial-grade ladders, secure clips, and safety gear to install lights the right way. We’re trained to work on roofs, gutters, and trees without risking injury or damaging your home.
Leaving it to the pros means you can stay warm inside while your lights go up safely and beautifully.
4. Professional Designs Make a Big Difference
Anyone can hang a few strands of lights — but a professional layout hits differently. With balanced spacing, straight rooflines, and clean wiring, your home instantly looks more elegant and high-end.
Our team can design anything from:
-
simple classic white rooflines
-
warm and cozy accents for trees and bushes
-
colorful displays for families with kids
-
full property designs for a “wow” holiday look
Since November is still early enough in the season, we have time to fine-tune your design before installation.
5. You Avoid the December “No Availability” Problem
December fills up fast — every year. Once Thanksgiving passes, everyone suddenly wants their home decorated right away, and installers are already booked out.
By scheduling in November, you avoid:
-
fully packed calendars
-
limited design options
-
delays due to weather
-
missing out on lighting altogether
It’s simply the smartest month to schedule before the rush hits.
