Lighting University City
for the holidays.
University City is the northeast side of Charlotte, built out around UNC Charlotte and the office and research campuses that gave the area its name, and the housing that came with it is mostly newer subdivisions and townhome streets. That makes it one of the most straightforward corridors we light. Simple, consistent rooflines, clean fascia, and short runs between houses mean a crew can do precise work quickly, and a sensible package can cover a whole street rather than a bespoke design per door.
Design out here is repetition done well. On a townhome row or a street of similar elevations, one warm color temperature and matched bulb spacing across every peak reads far better than four neighbors each doing their own thing, and it is what an HOA will approve without a conversation. The canopy is younger than it is closer in to the city, so the roofline itself carries the display, which is exactly why a straight line and even spacing matter so much here.
Newer construction is also the easiest place in Charlotte to put a permanent LED system. The track seats inside the fascia channel without the surprises an older home can hide, it is invisible in daylight, and after dark it is Christmas in December, orange in October, and plain warm white the rest of the year, all from your phone. Sixteen million colors and a 25-year warranty. The same logic applies to the office, retail, and student-facing frontage along the corridor, where a permanent run means the building is lit for December and for everything else without anyone booking a ladder twice.

What we install in University City
Christmas Light Displays

Christmas lighting details →Permanent LED Roofline Lighting
Architectural LED strips hidden inside your roofline channel, invisible by day and app-controlled at night. Sixteen million colors, programmable scenes for every holiday, and a 25-year warranty, and newer rooflines here take the track cleanly the first time.
Permanent LED details →Trees, Wreaths & Garland
Trunk wraps and canopy lighting for the younger front-yard trees, plus wreaths, garland, and porch details that finish the elevation. Sized to match the roofline design rather than compete with it.

The newer subdivisions are the bulk of the work, and they suit a matched design. Simple, consistent rooflines and clean fascia make for fast, precise installs, and one look repeated well across similar elevations does more for a street than five competing ideas ever will. We agree that look with you and, where it applies, with the HOA, before anything is ordered.
Townhome streets are designed as a single frontage rather than as separate houses. From the road a row reads as one long roofline, so the spacing and the color temperature carry straight across every peak, and entrance monuments, clubhouses, and common areas are quoted exactly the way a home is. That consistency is what makes the whole street look considered rather than decorated.
The corridor also runs on business frontage. Office, retail, and student-facing buildings around UNC Charlotte make a first impression in December that lasts into the spring, and warm garland, wreaths, and clean roofline runs do more for them than anything animated. Beyond the corridor, NoDa back down the line, Concord and Harrisburg to the northeast, and the rest of Charlotte get the same crew and the same design process.

University City questions
Yes. We install across the whole University City corridor, from the newer subdivisions and townhome streets around UNC Charlotte out toward Harrisburg and Concord, and back down the line toward NoDa. If you are not sure whether your street is covered, call (704) 326-2024 and we will tell you straight.
Earlier than you think. Our install calendar fills before Thanksgiving, and townhome rows tend to book as a street once the first house goes up. Booking a free consultation in early fall locks in your date. Permanent LED systems are different. We install those year-round, so the off-season is actually the easiest time to get on the schedule.
It depends on the size of the roofline and the scope of the display. Most residential seasonal installations run from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars. Permanent LED systems are quoted by linear roofline footage. Either way the on-site design consultation is free and there is no obligation.
Yes. Takedown and storage are included in every seasonal Christmas light package. We schedule removal after the holidays and store your lights until next season, so you never touch a ladder.
Yes, and townhome streets are some of the most satisfying work we do. We design a row as one continuous frontage rather than a set of separate houses, so the spacing and color temperature carry straight across every peak, and we take the HOA guidelines into account before anything is ordered. Entrance monuments, clubhouses, and common areas are quoted the same way as homes: a free on-site design consultation, then a fixed price.
