Professional Christmas light installation for Frankford's historic Northeast Philly rowhomes and twins
Full-service holiday lighting for Frankford homes, businesses and properties — designed, installed, maintained and taken down by our local crews.
Frankford residents hire us because lighting a tightly-packed Northeast Philadelphia neighborhood takes a crew that understands rowhomes, brick twins, and narrow porch fronts — not sprawling suburban lawns. We install professionally-mounted holiday displays on the two- and three-story brick facades that define Frankford, working around the Market-Frankford El and the dense streets that make DIY ladder work genuinely risky here. As a working-class, family-oriented community in Philadelphia County, folks in Frankford want clean, reliable lighting that holds up through Pennsylvania winters without breaking the budget. We handle the design, the commercial-grade LEDs, the install, the mid-season service if a strand fails, and the January takedown. You get a sharp, safe display on your rowhome or corner property — and you never touch a ladder in the December cold.
Lighting Frankford, neighborhood by neighborhood
We cover all of Frankford, from the blocks around Frankford Avenue and the old Frankford Arsenal area to the residential streets tucked near Womrath Park and the Frankford Transportation Center. We light the classic brick rowhomes and porch-front twins throughout the neighborhood, plus corner storefronts and mixed-use buildings along the commercial corridor. Our service area extends across Northeast Philadelphia into bordering neighborhoods like Bridesburg, Juniata, and Northwood, and up toward Mayfair and Wissinoming. Whether you're on a dense mid-block rowhome stretch or a slightly larger twin with a front yard closer to the neighborhood's edges, we scale the design to your facade. If you're unsure whether your block is covered, just ask — we work throughout Philadelphia County.
Built for Frankford homes
Frankford's housing stock is overwhelmingly brick — two- and three-story rowhomes, porch-front twins, and older mixed-use buildings dating back to when this was a mill and manufacturing hub of Northeast Philadelphia. That means we're outlining rooflines, cornices, porch columns, and window frames rather than wrapping massive lawns. Where there's a street tree — Frankford's blocks carry mature London plane, maple, and the occasional oak along the residential stretches — we can wrap trunks and lower canopy for curb appeal. The main challenge is the density: shared walls, tight sightlines from the El and the avenue, and limited ground space for staging. We design displays that read cleanly from the sidewalk and the street, emphasizing crisp roofline runs and warm porch accents that suit these classic Philadelphia facades.
Why local experience matters
Frankford's rowhomes and twins present specific challenges: shared party walls, narrow street access, second- and third-story rooflines, and mounting points on old brick and cornices. We use non-invasive clips sized for these surfaces — no nail holes in your masonry. Pennsylvania winters here mean ice, wind off the exposed corners, and freeze-thaw cycles, so we run commercial-grade LEDs on properly secured lines rated for the cold, not the seasonal big-box strands that quit by New Year's. Parking and ladder placement on tight Frankford blocks require a crew that plans access ahead of time. And because we handle mid-season service calls, if a section goes dark during a January freeze, we fix it — you're not out on a ladder in the ice.
Pricing in Frankford
Frankford is a mid-market, working-family neighborhood, and our pricing reflects that. Rowhome and twin roofline packages start at $1,499, with most Frankford homes landing between $2,000 and $4,000 depending on facade height, linear footage, and porch or tree accents. That price includes design, commercial-grade LEDs, professional installation, mid-season service, and January takedown and storage. No ladders, no tangled strands, no big-box replacements — one flat seasonal price.

Yes! We cover all neighborhoods and surrounding areas of Frankford, PA. Our team is familiar with local regulations and HOA requirements.
Yes. Frankford's rowhomes and twins are almost all older brick and masonry, so we never nail or screw into your facade. We use non-invasive clips and gutter or shingle mounts that attach to your roofline, cornices, and porch trim, plus adhesive-free tensioning for window and column runs. When we do the January takedown, everything comes off clean with no holes or residue. Because so many Frankford homes share party walls and have historic detailing, we survey each facade before install to pick the right mounting method for your specific brick, cornice, and porch style — protecting your home while keeping the display secure through Pennsylvania winter winds.
Frankford's blocks are tight, and streets near Frankford Avenue and the Transportation Center can be busy, so we plan access before we arrive. Our crews schedule installs to minimize street disruption, use compact equipment suited to narrow rowhome frontages, and stage ladders and lifts safely against your facade rather than blocking traffic. For corner properties and mixed-use buildings along the commercial corridor, we coordinate timing to avoid peak hours. This is exactly why local homeowners hire a professional crew instead of climbing a ladder themselves on a crowded Northeast Philly block in December — we've got the access, the safety gear, and the experience to do it right the first time.
They're built for it. Frankford sees real Pennsylvania winter — ice storms, freeze-thaw cycles, and gusty wind off exposed corners and rooftops. We install commercial-grade LEDs on professionally secured lines rated for cold temperatures, not the seasonal strands from big-box stores that crack and quit by January. Every connection is weather-sealed, and our mounting holds up to wind loads that would tear down loosely-hung DIY displays. If a section does go dark during a hard freeze, our mid-season service is included — we come back out and fix it, so you're not standing on an icy ladder over the holidays. Your display stays sharp from Thanksgiving through New Year's.
