Your Home Deserves Professional Lighting
There is a noticeable difference between DIY store-bought lights and a professionally designed and installed display. The spacing is even. The colors are consistent. The installation is clean and secure.
We bring commercial-quality lighting to residential properties, at prices that reflect the true value of your time and safety. No more climbing ladders in November.

Lighting Options for Your Home
We design each home individually. Your display is tailored to your architecture and style.
Roofline Lighting
Classic roofline outlines that define your home against the winter sky. We run lights along ridges, peaks, eaves, and valleys.
Tree and Shrub Wrapping
Lit trees and wrapped shrubs create depth and warmth. We wrap trunks and branches for a professional layered look.
Pathway and Driveway Accents
Guide guests to your front door with ground stakes, post-cap lights, and driveway accent lighting.
Window and Archway Frames
Interior silhouettes and exterior window framing add elegance without blocking your view.
Garage and Entry Features
Garage door outlines, front door canopy wraps, and pillar lighting anchor the front facade.

What Homeowners Say
"Our Hinsdale house has a complicated roof with three different pitches and a turret. Two other companies bid the job and never followed up. South Chicago LP walked the property, mapped every line, and had a clean quote in the inbox the same day. The install looks incredible."
"We manage four properties off I-355. South Chicago LP runs them all under one contract. Install dates land before Thanksgiving every season and the takedown is wrapped by the end of January. Property tours look better, leases get signed."
"I was done climbing on the roof in January. We did permanent LEDs last summer and it has been a totally different experience. Holidays take five minutes in the app. We even ran navy blue for the Bears playoff run."
"They lit our Frankfort retail strip alongside seven other storefronts on a coordinated schedule. The whole stretch looked sharp from before Thanksgiving through New Year. We had families driving over from Mokena just to see the block lit up."
"Our Western Springs Tudor is over a hundred years old and the trim is original. South Chicago LP used clip systems that did not put a single nail or staple into the fascia. From the street you cannot see the hardware at all. At night the place glows."
"We had an ice storm right before Christmas last year and our outline took a beating. The crew was out the next morning with a truck and a ladder and had everything back up before the kids got home from school. No charge. That is how every company should run."
"The Burr Ridge corporate park we manage has five buildings and a long entrance drive lined with parkway trees. South Chicago LP coordinated with the HOA, hit every install window, and stayed on schedule through a brutal December cold snap. They earned the renewal cold."
"Our Mokena house sits on a hill and gets hit by every wind that comes through. Other companies we used had bulbs missing by the end of December. South Chicago LP used commercial grade everything and we did not lose a single light all season."
"We have a restaurant on La Grange Road and patio season runs longer every year. South Chicago LP does our holiday lighting in November and our string lighting from April through October. Same team every visit. They know our staff by name now."
"Homer Glen is full of newer builds and big lot setbacks. We needed lighting that could be seen from the street, not just up close. They designed an outline plus tree wraps that lights up the whole front of the property. The neighbors keep asking for the company name."
"Our Naperville office building had been doing a generic holiday rental for years and it always looked tired. South Chicago LP installed a permanent system last spring. We ran it warm white through summer, orange and black for Halloween, then full holiday in November. It has paid for itself in three years and tenant feedback has been amazing."
"We are big Cubs fans and our Lemont house has flown a Cubs flag for fifteen years. South Chicago LP installed a permanent outline last spring that we can run red and blue during the season. October was a whole different experience this year."
Residential Lighting FAQs
- We cover the southern and southwestern portion of the Chicago metro including Orland Park, Tinley Park, Frankfort, Mokena, Homer Glen, Palos Heights, Palos Park, Burr Ridge, Hinsdale, Western Springs, La Grange, Lemont, Lockport, and southern Naperville. That spans southern Cook County, Will County, and the southern part of DuPage County. We do not serve the city of Chicago itself or the north shore. If you are not sure your zip is in our area, call us and we will check.
- Cold wind off Lake Michigan, heavy snow loads, and mid-winter ice storms are the three things we plan around. We install the bulk of our jobs October through early December before the worst weather arrives. Every clip, wire, and bulb we use is commercial grade and rated for snow and ice. If a storm knocks something loose during the season, our in-season service calls cover it at no charge.
- Two things. First, we use clip systems that grip the fascia or roof edge under load instead of staples or hot glue that pop off under ice weight. Second, we run a proactive sweep after major weather events. If we get a serious ice storm in your area, our crew is on the road the next morning checking client properties without waiting for a call. Cheap installers disappear after install day. We do not.
- Yes. Permanent LED lighting is fully programmable from a smartphone app. You can run Bears navy and orange on game day, Cubs blue and red through the season, White Sox black and silver, or Blackhawks red and white whenever you want. Most clients use warm white as their daily setting and switch into team colors for game days, holidays, or family events. It is one of the most popular reasons people in the south suburbs choose permanent over seasonal.
- Property scale and architecture. The north shore has a lot of older, tight-lot urban housing stock and east-facing lake exposure. The south and southwest have larger lots, more new construction, longer rooflines, and wider visibility from the street. That means we design for distance and scale on this side. Outlines need to read clearly from forty or fifty feet back, tree wraps need to anchor the lot, and commercial properties along I-355 and I-80 need to be visible from the highway. It is a different design challenge and we know it.
