Three signature looks, all commercial-grade LED. Pick one when you book — or try them on your own photo below.
Big, bold classic bulbs tracing every peak and eave. The brightest, most timeless Christmas look from the street.
Try it on your homeDelicate twinkling lights for trees, bushes, garland and wreaths — depth and sparkle across the whole property.
Try it on your homeCascading icicle lights along eaves and gutters for a winter-wonderland waterfall effect.
Try it on your homeThe extras that complete the look. Every one is designed, installed, maintained, and taken down by our crew — just like the rooflines.
Mention any of these on your free Zoom estimate call and we’ll design them into your plan.
Get a free estimateA great display isn’t more lights. It’s better decisions. Every Pine & Glow design runs through four ideas before a single clip goes up.
The outline of your home carries the whole display. We map it before anything else, so the shape of the house does the talking.
Every memorable display has a single anchor the eye finds first — one tree, one entryway, one moment — never everything shouting at once.
Foreground, midground, background. A display with depth reads like a scene from the curb; a flat one just reads like lights.
Warm white or full color — either can be stunning. The mistake is mixing moods, so we commit to one story across the whole property.
Tell us what you want the block to feel, and we’ll design from there.
Get a free estimateUpload a photo of your house, pick a style, and trace your roofline to preview the look. Your final design is confirmed free, on site.
A clear daylight photo, straight-on with the full roofline visible, works best.

Design, lights, installation, maintenance and January takedown — one service, one crew, nothing for you to buy. Storage is available as a separate service — details on your free Zoom estimate call.
Professional bulbs custom-cut to your roofline — brighter, tougher and far more reliable than store-bought strands.
Cold roofs, tangled strands and January takedown are our job now. You pour the cocoa and enjoy the glow.
Based in Chicago and serving surrounding areas — when a bulb goes out, help is a neighborhood away, not a call center.
Use “See It On Your Home” to sketch a direction on your own photo, then refine the exact design with us on your free Zoom estimate call.
We look at your home with you on a free Zoom call, discuss the scope and give you an exact price before you decide — no pressure and no online guesswork.
Choose the path that fits you. Pine & Glow is built for homeowners and businesses who want one crew to handle the full season.
We serve homes, storefronts and community properties throughout Chicago and the North Shore. If your neighborhood is just outside this list, ask us — surrounding areas are part of our route.
Check My AddressPine & Glow Lighting is now booking its first season in Chicago & surrounding areas. Early customers get first pick of install dates — and our founding-season promise: if you don't love how it looks, we'll adjust the design until you do.
Claim Your Install DateNovember install weeks are booking now across Chicago — booking now locks in your preferred install window before the pre-Thanksgiving weeks fill up.
Yes. In January we take everything down. If you'd like us to store the display, storage is available as a separate service — details on your free Zoom estimate call.
It's a free Zoom video call. We look at your home together, design the display, and you get an exact price on the call — no obligation.
Chicago and surrounding suburbs — including Evanston, Skokie, Lincolnwood, Morton Grove, Park Ridge, Glenview and Wilmette. Not sure? Call and ask.
The short version — full answers to these and more below.
Every home is different — roofline length, height, trees and extras all change the scope. That's why we don't publish one-size prices: book a free Zoom estimate call and you'll get an exact price for your home on the call, with no obligation.
Yes. We supply premium commercial-grade LED lights and all materials for your approved design — custom-cut to your roofline. Nothing to buy, untangle or store.
Barely. We use commercial-grade LED lights, which draw a fraction of the power of old incandescent strands — a full home display typically costs only a few dollars of electricity for the whole season. Every install includes automatic timers, so the lights turn on at dusk and off when you choose, and never run all night by accident.
Holiday installations include in-season maintenance through December 26. Let us know and we'll come make it right.
Yes — Chicago roofs in winter are cold, steep and often wet, which is exactly when ladder falls happen most. Our crew climbs roofs and hangs lights every day with the right equipment, uses commercial-grade LEDs built for outdoor winter conditions, and handles takedown in January. You get the full display without ever touching a ladder.
No. We hang lights with clips made for rooflines and gutters — no nails or screws through your shingles. At takedown in January, the clips come off with the lights, leaving your roof and gutters the way we found them.
That's your call. Every install includes an automatic timer: lights come on at dusk and switch off at whatever time you choose, so the display runs on your schedule and never stays on all night by accident. Want a different off-time later in the season? Just ask and we'll adjust it.
In January our team takes everything down. Storage is also available — its details and fee are confirmed on your free Zoom estimate call, so nothing is assumed up front.
Before we arrive, please move vehicles away from the house so the crew has clear access to the roofline, unlock any gates, keep pets indoors, and make sure outdoor outlets are reachable. If you have a gate code, a locked fence or any other access notes, mention them when you book.
No — most installs happen while homeowners are out. As long as the crew has access (gates unlocked, outdoor outlets reachable, pets indoors), we complete the full install and send confirmation when it's finished. Your design is approved at the free estimate, so there's nothing for you to wait on.
Yes — and we think you should. Use the See It On Your Home photo visualizer right here on this site to try light styles on a photo of your own home and get a feel for the look. Then, at your free estimate, we walk through the design together step by step, so you know exactly what the plan is before anything is installed.
Usually, nothing changes. Our crew works roofs all winter, so cold weather and light snow are normal install conditions. We watch the Chicago forecast ahead of your date, and if a storm makes a roof genuinely unsafe to work on, we'll let you know ahead of time and move your install to the next open date — no guessing, no surprise cancellations on the day.
As early as you can — November install weeks are booking now. Most homeowners want their display up before Thanksgiving, so install calendars across Chicago fill fastest in the weeks leading up to it — booking now locks in your preferred install window, instead of whatever dates are left.
Yes — installs continue into December while the calendar allows. The closer to Christmas, the fewer open install days remain, so book a free Zoom estimate call and we'll confirm the earliest available install date for your home on the call.
It depends on the size and scope of your display — a simple roofline goes up faster than a full-property design with trees, walkways and accents. Your exact install timing is confirmed on your free Zoom estimate call, once we have designed your display together.
Just yourself and a phone or laptop — nothing to prepare in advance. It helps to be somewhere you can step outside and point your camera at the front of your home, so we can look at the roofline, entryway and any trees or areas you would like lit. If you already know which parts of your home matter most to you, or you have tried a style in the See It On Your Home visualizer, tell us on the call and we will build the design around it. Your exact price is given on that same call, with no obligation.
Simple: we confirm your call time and send you the Zoom link. On the call we look at your home together, design the display with you, and give you an exact price — with no obligation. Nothing is installed or charged until you have seen the design and said yes to it.
Yes — permanent LED trim, landscape, event & party, patio string lighting are all available now, alongside our holiday installations. Book a free Zoom estimate call and we'll design the whole project with you on the call.
Absolutely — every design is custom, so you choose the scope: roofline only, entryway and trees, a single feature, or the full property. On your free Zoom estimate call we design exactly what you want and give you an exact price for that scope, with no obligation.
Yes — most designs mix them. Crown Glow on the roofline, Fairy Glow in the trees and garland, and Winterfall Glow along the eaves can all live on the same home. On your free Zoom estimate call we build the combination with you, so you see how the styles work together before anything is installed — and you can preview them first on your own home photo in the See It On Your Home section.
We serve Chicago, Evanston, Skokie, Lincolnwood, Morton Grove, Niles, Park Ridge, Des Plaines, Glenview, Wilmette and surrounding areas, for both homes and businesses. Not sure if we cover your neighborhood? Call us and ask.
Your display stays lit all season — from your install date in October or November through the holidays and into early January. In January we handle the full takedown and pack everything into organized, labeled storage, so next season starts with zero hassle.
Yes — that's the whole point. Permanent LED trim is a slim, color-matched channel mounted along your roofline that stays up year-round. By day it blends into your trim; at night it glows in any color for Christmas, Halloween, game days, birthdays, or a warm white every evening. We cut it to fit your home's exact lines, wire it cleanly, and set up a simple app-based controller so you're lighting the house from your phone in minutes.
Seasonal installation is our classic Christmas service: we design the display, install it, maintain it all season, take it down in January, and store everything — you never touch a ladder or a box of lights. Permanent LED trim is a discreet track that blends with your trim by day and lights up by night, app-controlled in any color for every holiday, game day, and season, with no yearly install or takedown. Both options are installed by our crew and priced free on a Zoom estimate call.

Christmas is coming — reserve your install date before the calendar fills.
Holiday Lighting and LED House Numbers are available now. Five additional divisions—Epoxy Garage Flooring, Garage Door Service, Mold Remediation, Blinds & Window Shades, and Pest Control—are being developed with their own service menus, field processes, and residential and commercial paths. Each is clearly marked planned and not yet booking.
Holiday lighting and LED house numbers are available now. Future divisions—including prevention-led pest control—are being built around clear choices, careful work and one professional point of contact.
See active residential services →Commercial holiday lighting is available now. Planned divisions are being shaped for property managers, businesses, HOAs and facilities that need defined scope and scheduling.
See commercial lighting →A complete coating system starts with the existing concrete, how the space is used and the finish the customer wants. Surface preparation, repair, system selection and cure timing are defined before work begins.
Best for: garages and busy workspaces needing a fast-return decorative finish. Options/materials: pigmented base, full or partial flake broadcast and clear topcoat. Process: profile, repair, coat, broadcast, scrape and seal. Scope note: cure time and cold-weather suitability depend on the selected product and slab.
Best for: scheduled residential or commercial interiors where a longer cure window is workable. Options/materials: primers, solid-color or flake body coats and compatible topcoats. Process: test, grind, repair, prime, coat and cure. Scope note: unheated winter slabs may require another system.
Best for: professionally specified fast-cure floors. Options/materials: basecoat, decorative media and UV-stable topcoat where specified. Process: strict surface prep followed by timed application. Scope note: short working time makes trained application essential.
Best for: every coating project; adhesion starts here. Options/equipment: diamond grinding, edge grinding and HEPA dust collection. Process: remove contaminants and profile the full slab. Scope note: coating over paint, oil or weak concrete without preparation is not included.
Best for: non-structural cracks and surface defects identified before coating. Options/materials: compatible repair resins, fillers and patch materials. Process: open, clean, fill and re-profile. Scope note: moving or structural cracks may reappear and can require a concrete specialist.
Best for: slabs with visible dampness, prior failures or uncertain history. Options: screening, documented testing and a compatible mitigation primer when specified. Process: test before system selection. Scope note: drainage, plumbing and foundation repairs remain separate work.
Best for: service bays, showrooms and work areas with defined traffic and shutdown windows. Options: slip-resistant texture, safety colors and system thickness by use. Process: site survey, sample, phased installation and handoff. Scope note: operating conditions and downtime must be confirmed before quoting.
Next step: when this division opens, the first appointment will be a slab and use review before any system is recommended.
System choices will be matched to the slab and use—not sold as one coating for every floor.
Ask about the roadmapA diagnosis-led division designed to explain what failed, whether repair or replacement makes sense and what must be safety-tested before the door returns to service.
Best for: noise, uneven travel, a door that will not open or an unexplained opener issue. Checks: springs, cables, rollers, tracks, panels, balance and controls. Process: secure, inspect, test and explain options. Scope note: no repair begins before approval.
Best for: broken or fatigued torsion or extension springs. Parts: correctly sized spring set and related hardware where needed. Process: secure door, replace, balance and cycle-test. Scope note: high stored energy makes this trained-technician work, not a DIY repair.
Best for: failed motors, remotes, wall controls or safety sensors, plus planned upgrades. Options: belt, chain or wall-mount systems where compatible. Process: diagnose power and door balance before repair or installation. Scope note: electrical-circuit work is separate.
Best for: rough travel, frayed cables or worn rollers. Parts: door-rated cables, rollers and fasteners. Process: secure tension, replace affected parts, align and test. Scope note: connected spring, drum or track damage may change the approved scope.
Best for: binding, loose brackets, misalignment or impact damage. Parts: tracks, hinges, brackets and fasteners matched to the door. Process: inspect geometry, repair or replace and cycle-test. Scope note: a distorted door opening may need building repair first.
Best for: damaged panels, poor insulation, repeated repair or a full exterior update. Options: material, insulation, window and hardware packages. Process: measure, specify, order, remove, install and test. Scope note: lead time follows the selected door.
Best for: residential doors used daily and commercial doors where downtime matters. Includes: visual inspection, hardware check, lubrication where appropriate, balance and safety tests. Process: document condition and prioritize repairs. Scope note: replacement parts are quoted separately.
Best for: managed properties, retail back-of-house and light-commercial openings. Options: planned repairs, maintenance and replacement coordination. Process: site contact, access plan, documented work and handoff. Scope note: fire-rated and specialty systems require the correct qualified trade lane.
Next step: when this division opens, service will begin with a whole-system diagnosis and an approved scope.
Every proposed service path ends with an operating and safety check—not just a replaced part.
Ask about the roadmapA careful service path that separates assessment from treatment and makes containment, filtration, removal, cleaning, drying and documentation understandable without fear-based selling.
Best for: visible growth, odor or a moisture history that needs a defined starting point. Tools: visual review, moisture instruments and documentation. Process: identify conditions and scope boundaries. Scope note: testing, inspection and remediation roles will follow Illinois requirements in force at launch.
Best for: basements, attics and recurring affected areas. Checks: leaks, condensation, ventilation and wet materials. Process: locate and document the likely source before treatment planning. Scope note: plumbing, roofing, foundation and HVAC repairs are referred to the appropriate trade.
Best for: separating the work zone from occupied areas. Materials: sealed polyethylene barriers, protected openings and controlled access. Process: establish, inspect and maintain the boundary throughout work. Scope note: the containment design changes with size, occupancy and affected materials.
Best for: controlling airborne particulate inside a contained area. Equipment: correctly sized air scrubbers, HEPA filters and ducting where needed. Process: establish pressure and filter through remediation. Scope note: equipment quantities follow room volume and project conditions.
Best for: affected porous materials that cannot be cleaned and sound surfaces that can. Materials: HEPA vacuuming, cleaning tools and products selected for the material. Process: remove or clean under containment. Scope note: cosmetic stain removal is not the same as resolving moisture.
Best for: materials that must reach an appropriate condition before closure. Equipment: dehumidification, air movement and moisture monitoring as the scope requires. Process: dry, record and re-check. Scope note: active leaks must be corrected for drying to hold.
Best for: homeowners, managers and commercial teams needing a clear record. Includes: scope notes, conditions, equipment and completion observations. Process: capture before, during and after work. Scope note: documentation is not an independent clearance unless performed by the qualified independent party required.
Best for: offices, retail, multifamily and occupied facilities. Planning: containment, access, phasing, communication and after-hours windows. Process: coordinate stakeholders, execute and document. Scope note: regulated materials and specialized environments require separate qualified handling.
Next step: this division will open only after its legal requirements, training, insurance and field protocols are confirmed.
This division will not advertise certifications, inspections or regulated work until the required qualifications and legal lane are confirmed.
Ask about the roadmapA shop-at-home experience that brings samples and guidance into the customer's own space, then carries the project through measuring, ordering, installation, adjustment and service.
Best for: clean-lined residential rooms and repeatable commercial openings. Options/materials: privacy, light-filtering, solar or blackout fabrics with manual or motorized controls. Process: select fabric, measure, order, install and adjust. Scope note: fabric appearance changes with daylight and room lighting.
Best for: bedrooms and living spaces needing soft light and a compact stack. Options: cell sizes, opacity, top-down/bottom-up and cordless controls. Process: verify depth, measure and fit. Scope note: specialty shapes and unusually wide openings need product-specific review.
Best for: rooms that call for a tailored textile look. Options/materials: folds, liners, decorative fabrics and motorization where compatible. Process: compare samples in-room, measure and install. Scope note: pattern placement and fabric variation are confirmed before ordering.
Best for: glare management, media rooms, bedrooms and offices. Options: solar openness factors, room-darkening fabrics and side-channel systems where available. Process: match performance to the room. Scope note: standard blackout fabric may still allow light around edges.
Best for: familiar slat control and a furniture-like finish. Options/materials: real wood, moisture-tolerant alternatives, slat sizes and stains. Process: match finish, measure and balance. Scope note: weight and humidity influence which material fits the opening.
Best for: layered privacy, softness and large openings. Options: panels, liners, pleats, rods and tracks. Process: select fabric and fullness, measure, order, steam and install. Scope note: final fall and folds depend on fabric behavior and installation height.
Best for: tall windows, coordinated rooms and convenient scheduled control. Options: battery, plug-in or hardwired motors and compatible remotes or hubs. Process: confirm power and platform, program and demonstrate. Scope note: electrical work and third-party automation support may be separate.
Best for: damaged cords, controls, brackets or selected mechanisms where parts remain available. Options: on-site adjustment, component replacement or factory service. Process: identify brand and failure before quoting. Scope note: discontinued products or unsafe assemblies may be better replaced.
Next step: when this division opens, the consultation will compare real samples in the room before final measurements and ordering.
Consultation, measurement, product choice and installation will read as one connected service—not a product catalog.
Ask about the roadmapA professional residential and commercial pest-management division designed around Integrated Pest Management: identify the pest, understand why it is present, correct entry and harborage conditions, use targeted controls where needed, then monitor the result. The goal is a clear service record and long-term control—not a one-size-fits-all spray.
Best for: recurring ants, spiders, silverfish, centipedes, earwigs and other common invaders. Includes: interior and exterior inspection, pest identification, targeted treatment and prevention recommendations. Process: focus on entry points, moisture and harborage before treating. Scope note: the covered-pest list and follow-up window will be written in the service agreement.
Best for: mice or rats, droppings, gnawing or sounds in walls. Includes: inspection, monitoring or trapping plan, sanitation guidance and identification of entry points. Process: reduce the population, seal practical openings and verify activity. Scope note: structural repairs, inaccessible voids and cleanup of heavily contaminated materials may require separate scopes.
Best for: kitchens, bathrooms, multifamily housing and food-service settings. Includes: species identification, monitoring, focused bait or crack-and-crevice treatment and sanitation guidance. Process: map activity, reduce food and water sources, treat targeted zones and re-check. Scope note: shared walls and neighboring units can require coordinated building-wide service.
Best for: trails, webs and seasonal activity at foundations, eaves and entry points. Includes: identification, nest or harborage review, targeted interior service where needed and exterior prevention. Process: trace activity and select the least-disruptive effective method. Scope note: carpenter-ant activity can indicate moisture-damaged wood that needs separate repair.
Best for: active nests near doors, eaves, decks and occupied outdoor areas. Includes: species and access review, risk controls, targeted treatment and nest removal where safe and appropriate. Process: establish a safe work zone and treat at the right time. Scope note: high or concealed nests may require specialized access and a separate quote.
Best for: confirmed or suspected activity in homes, apartments and hospitality rooms. Includes: detailed inspection, preparation instructions, treatment plan and scheduled verification. Options: the launch program may use targeted chemical, steam, vacuuming, encasement or heat through the appropriate qualified lane. Scope note: multiple visits and occupant cooperation are commonly essential; no method is promised before inspection.
Best for: suspected termites, swarmers, shelter tubes or wood damage. Includes: inspection by the appropriately certified lane and a property-specific recommendation. Options: monitoring/bait systems or labeled liquid treatments where qualified. Scope note: Illinois treats termites as a specific restricted-use certification subcategory; this service will not open until the required certification and business licensing are in place.
Best for: yards and outdoor gathering areas during active seasons. Includes: habitat review, standing-water and vegetation recommendations, and targeted exterior treatment where appropriate. Process: reduce breeding and resting sites, treat selected areas and schedule follow-up by seasonal pressure. Scope note: outdoor service reduces activity; it cannot make an open yard insect-free.
Best for: customers who want prevention rather than waiting for another infestation. Includes: an initial interior/exterior inspection, scheduled exterior-focused visits, interior service as needed, monitoring and written service reports. Cadence: seasonal or quarterly is a common industry pattern, but the final schedule will follow Chicago pest pressure and the property. Scope note: specialty pests remain separately defined.
Best for: restaurants, multifamily, retail, offices, healthcare, hospitality, warehouses and managed portfolios. Includes: site survey, device map, monitoring, corrective-action recommendations, service logs and trend review. Process: inspect, identify, set thresholds, correct conditions, control and document. Scope note: frequency and records are built around the site, operating hours and audit requirements.
Research basis: service architecture and recurring-plan patterns were distilled from Terminix residential plans, Terminix Commercial, Smithereen’s Chicago-area Home Guard and Pest Arrest’s quarterly system. The operating model follows EPA Integrated Pest Management principles; the launch gate follows the Illinois Department of Public Health.
Next step: before this division opens, Pine & Glow must finalize the certified-technician lane, Illinois business license, pesticide-use protocols, service agreements, recordkeeping, storage, insurance and pest-specific field SOPs.
No vague “spray everything” package: each proposal will identify the pest, the contributing conditions, what is covered, the visit cadence and how results will be checked.
Ask about the roadmapA properly planned illuminated address is easy to read after dark and looks intentional in daylight. We help select the format, finish, light color and power path, then mount and test the finished system at your property.
