Christmas Light Installation in Kent — Done Right for a City That Does Things Right
Christmas Lights for Kent homes — install, maintenance, takedown, and storage. Licensed, Bonded, and Insured.
Kent Valley transformed from the most productive agricultural region in Washington state — lettuce fields, pea farms, berry patches — to industrial corridors to one of the most culturally diverse communities in the Pacific Northwest, within living memory. This city knows how to transform things. Holiday lighting that reflects that ambition is different from a box of tangled retail strands installed on a wet ladder in November. PNW Softwash designs and installs professional Christmas lighting on Kent homes that are ready for the version that matches the city they are part of.
Why Kent Homeowners Choose PNW Softwash for Christmas Lights
We install Christmas lights on homes throughout Kent every season — established East Hill craftsman profiles, newer construction in Panther Lake, and the varied architectural styles across Scenic Hill where roofline complexity makes the result only as good as the crew doing the work. We know what reads well on each style and what holds through Kent's December weather.
The Greater Kent Historical Society Museum documents the valley's transformation from farming community to the city it is today. Kent takes its own story seriously — and the homeowners who live here bring the same sense of investment to how their homes present during the season that matters most visibly.
Professional installation and removal runs $1,500–$5,000+ depending on home size, roofline complexity, and light footage. That covers design, installation, takedown, and storage — the complete service. Against the real cost of retail lights that fail in December rain and the ladder work on a wet November roofline, it resolves quickly.
PNW Softwash is a Licensed, Bonded, and Insured father-and-son operation. Climate-rated materials on every job. Satisfaction guaranteed — if the result is not right, we come back before Christmas.
What Our Christmas Lights Service Includes
We start with a design consultation — walking the property, noting the roofline profile, and discussing the look you want. Classic warm white reads timeless on East Hill's older craftsman profiles. Multi-color reads festive on the contemporary Panther Lake builds. We have installed both on every Kent architectural style and can show you comparable results on similar homes before you commit.
We use commercial-grade LED lights rated for Pacific Northwest weather. They will not fail in the sustained December rain that Kent delivers every year — the retail alternative often does not make it through the first wet week. Installation uses purpose-made clips that protect roofing material and gutters.
When the season ends — on a date you choose — we return for takedown. Lights are carefully removed, tested, labeled, and stored in our facility until the following fall. You start next year with lights that work, that are organized, and that are already scheduled.
Kent transforms things. The holiday lighting on your home should be part of that standard.

Frequently Asked Questions About Christmas Lights in Kent
Honest answers from a Licensed, Bonded, and Insured crew that works in Kent every week.
What does Christmas light installation cost in Kent?
- Professional Christmas light installation in Kent runs $1,500–$5,000+ and covers everything: design, commercial-grade LED lights, installation, mid-season maintenance, takedown, and storage. Most single-family homes on East Hill, Panther Lake, and Scenic Hill land between $1,500–$2,500; larger homes with complex rooflines reach $5,000 and up. Call (425) 400-9001 early — good fall dates fill before November.
What quality of Christmas lights do you install in Kent?
- We provide commercial-grade LED lights built to withstand PNW rain, wind, and cold. These are significantly more durable than retail holiday lights — Kent's sustained December rainfall stresses the connections and sockets that retail strands are not rated for. Our complete service covers design, installation, mid-season maintenance, takedown, and storage. We do not install customer lights.
Do you handle Christmas light takedown and storage in Kent?
- Yes. Our full-service package includes careful takedown and organized storage. At the end of the season — on a date you choose — we remove all lights, test each strand, label and package them, and store everything in our facility until the following fall. You start next year with lights that work, that are organized, and that are already on your schedule. No storage, no tangles, no ladder in January.
How do you attach Christmas lights to Kent rooflines without causing damage?
- Absolutely. We use clips and hooks specifically designed for holiday lighting — never nails or staples. Our hardware protects roofing material, gutters, and fascia while securing lights through Kent's December wind and rain. All connections are waterproof. When we take down the lights at season's end, no marks are left behind on your East Hill or Panther Lake roofline.
When should I book Christmas light installation in Kent to get my preferred date?
- As early as possible. Our holiday schedule fills fast, especially for East Hill homes with complex or steep rooflines. The earlier you book, the better your options for your preferred installation date. Don't wait until November to call — by then, prime dates are already taken. Returning clients are contacted in September; new clients who book in October generally secure their preferred date.
