Tasteful, custom holiday lighting for Maplewood’s century-old homes and walkable streets.

Maplewood’s walkable, bungalow-heavy streets are full of century-old character — Victorians, Queen Annes, Foursquares, and 1920s bungalows, often several styles side by side on the same block. Many of these homes are well over 100 years old, and the right holiday display reveals that original character with warm tones and clean detailing rather than imposing a bright modern look.
Because Maplewood is walkable and MetroLink-connected, your display is seen up close by neighbors on foot, so tidy runs and glare control matter. On the tighter lots here, a focused, well-detailed display — clean roofline, lit porch and columns, a wrapped tree or two — makes the strongest impression.
Maplewood is a tight-lot, design-conscious market with a lot of tear-down and renovation activity. Projects here are typically smaller in fixture count but higher in detail — homeowners want a tailored, intentional display, not a scaled-down suburban package. We tune each design to the specific home, since a Victorian, a Foursquare, a bungalow, and a recent renovation can share a single block. Warm tones and low-profile placements suit the century-old architecture, and because the streets are walkable and MetroLink-connected, we keep runs tidy and glare-free for close-up viewing. The downtown corridor along Manchester also drives steady commercial interest, and the city’s arts-and-craft sensibility fits our built-to-last approach.

This was our first time in 30 years hiring a lighting company to put our Christmas lights up and we were 100% glad we did! They were quick to send us a bid, and had our lights up in no time! When we had a few lights fall due to high winds, they were quick to respond and fix. Would highly recommend!Posted on Google Mark FernandezTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very nice and elegant look. Very responsive as well. Last year I called and they had my lights up the same day! I’ve used them for the past three years and plan to continue!Posted on Google Jody WoodwardTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were very happy with Santa's Elves. We've always done our own outdoor decorating, and it was so great to not have to get out there in the cold to put up and take down the lights. Everything looked great and worked perfectly all season, and Santa's Elves beat the pricing of other bids we got by quite a bit! Communication was also excellent!Posted on Google Kathryn YoungTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our first year not hanging our own lights and they were spot on. The lights and big wreath were exactly as we wanted!Posted on Google francine pinkowskiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great communication and price. We are so happy we found Santa's Elves to help us make our season more merry! Great selection of light choices. I love that they will check throughout the season to make sure all our lights are working and secured on our roof. Every year I was scared for my kids putting up the lights and then falling off the roof. Leave it to the professionals!!! Can't wait to add more lights next year!Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
