New Albany's Holiday Lighting Company for Homes, Businesses & Communities
Soap + Water helps homeowners bring their homes to life for the holidays with professional lighting installation for rooflines, gutters, trees, shrubs, walkways, and outdoor landscapes in New Albany, OH. Our team uses commercial-grade lights, safe installation methods, and custom design layouts to make your property shine bright, festive, and beautifully lit all season long.
Holiday Lighting Options
Holiday Lighting Installation in New Albany, Ohio & Surrounding Areas
Every November, New Albany homeowners face the same choice: spend a weekend on a ladder wrestling with tangled string lights, or hire someone who does this for a living. Soap + Water is the second option — a local lighting crew that designs, installs, maintains, and removes holiday lighting for residential properties, storefronts, and entire neighborhoods across Central Ohio.
We don’t sell you a box of lights and wish you luck. We measure your rooflines, walk your property, plan bulb spacing and color temperature before we ever climb a ladder, and install using clips rated to hold through an Ohio winter, no nails, no roof damage, no shingles pulled loose in a February wind storm.
Why New Albany Chooses Soap + Water
➡️ Built for Ohio Weather, Not Just November: Central Ohio holiday displays need to survive ice, wind, and temperature swings from 50°F to single digits. We use commercial-grade LED strands and weatherproof clips designed to hold their shape and stay lit through the whole season.
➡️ One Company, Every Property Type: Whether it’s a single-family roofline, a retail storefront on a Main Street corridor, or an HOA entrance monument shared by 400 homes, we run the same design-install-maintain-remove process. You’re not hiring a different vendor for each property type.
➡️ We Come Back If Something Goes Dark: Bulbs fail. Storms happen. If a strand goes out mid-season, we come back and fix it — that’s built into every installation, not sold as an upsell.
➡️ Full-Season Ownership: We install, we monitor, and when the season ends, we take everything down and store what needs storing. Your property looks holiday-ready in December and back to normal in January.
Complete Results
We are meticulous about designing and installing your holiday lighting so your rooflines, trees, walkways, and landscape look their absolute best.
Our holiday lighting process is designed to safely and securely install lights while using the right approach for rooflines, gutters, trees, shrubs, and other outdoor features.
➡️ Curb Appeal You Can See: A beautifully lit home instantly improves the first impression of your property and spreads holiday cheer throughout the neighborhood.
➡️ Service Backed by Satisfaction: Soap + Water is committed to professional service, clear communication, and results you can feel confident about — from installation to takedown.
Residential Holiday Lighting Installation in New Albany, Ohio & Surrounding Areas
The difference between a house that looks “decorated” and one that looks professionally lit usually comes down to three things: bulb spacing, clip choice, and whether someone actually measured the roofline before ordering lights. Soap + Water handles all three.
We install warm-white or custom-color C9 and C7 LED strands along rooflines and gutters using shingle-safe and gutter-safe clips — never staples, never nails, never tape that peels your paint in March. For trees, we hand-wrap trunks and branches with mini-LEDs sized to the tree’s actual canopy, not a generic “one strand fits all” approach. Walkways and shrub beds get warm path lighting that guides guests to your door instead of leaving them squinting at a dark porch.
What Sets Our Residential Installs Apart
➡️ Roofline Design, Not Just Roofline Coverage: We walk your roofline before quoting and map out valleys, peaks, and gutter runs so the spacing looks intentional from the street — not stretched thin in some spots and bunched in others.
➡️ No Ladder Time for You, No Roof Damage for Your House: Our installers are trained on shingle-safe clip systems specifically so your roof looks the same in January as it did in October. We carry insurance and follow OSHA fall-protection practices on every job.
➡️ Dusk-to-Dawn Timers Included: Every residential install can be set to a photocell or smart timer so your lights turn on at dusk automatically. No remembering to flip a switch, no lights left burning at 3 AM.
➡️ Takedown Is Part of the Package: When the season’s over, we remove everything, coil and label your strands if you want them stored, and leave your roofline and yard exactly as they were.

From New Albany’s Rose Run and Lambton Park areas out through Central Ohio, we schedule residential installs on a first-come basis starting in late October — book early for a pre-Thanksgiving lit home.
Commercial Holiday Lighting Installation in New Albany, Ohio & Surrounding Areas
For a retail storefront, restaurant, or office building, holiday lighting isn’t decoration — it’s foot traffic. A dark or dated storefront next to a competitor’s lit-up window loses that customer before they ever walk in. Soap + Water designs commercial lighting that reads clearly from the street, matches your brand’s color palette, and holds up through the retail season’s heaviest weeks.
We work around your operating hours, not the other way around. Installation and takedown crews schedule before opening or after close, so there’s no ladder in the middle of your sales floor during business hours.
What Sets Our Commercial Installs Apart
➡️ Storefront & Signage-Aware Design: We light around your existing signage and window displays instead of competing with them — outlining architectural features, awnings, and entrances so the building reads as “open and lit” from the parking lot or sidewalk.
➡️ Extended-Duty Commercial-Grade Product: Commercial properties often run lighting longer hours and longer seasons than a home would. We spec commercial-rated LED strands and connectors built for that extra duty cycle, so you’re not replacing burnt-out sections in week three.
➡️ Scheduled Around Your Business, Not Ours: Install and removal crews work early mornings, evenings, or off-hours by arrangement — we plan around your peak retail hours so customers never see a ladder blocking the entrance.
➡️ One Point of Contact for Multiple Locations: Multi-location businesses get a single project contact coordinating install dates, design consistency, and takedown across every site — no re-explaining your brand standards to a new crew at each location.
New Albany Business Districts We Serve
From Market Square storefronts to office parks along Smith’s Mill Road, we handle everything from a single entrance display to full building rooflines and parking lot tree lighting.
HOA & Community Holiday Lighting Installation in New Albany, Ohio
An HOA board managing holiday lighting usually inherits one of two problems: a patchwork of volunteer-installed lights that look different at every entrance, or a vendor who disappears after installation and never answers when a strand goes dark in week two. Soap + Water solves both by treating your community as one coordinated property, not a collection of individual jobs.
We design a single lighting plan for entrance monuments, clubhouse exteriors, common-area trees, and shared walkways so the display reads as one cohesive look — the kind of consistency that’s hard to get from rotating volunteers or a patchwork of resident-hired vendors.
What Sets Our HOA & Community Installs Apart
➡️ One Design Plan, One Point of Contact: Your board works with a single project lead who handles design approval, install scheduling, and season-long maintenance — instead of coordinating multiple vendors or relying on volunteer availability.
➡️ Entrance Monuments Get Priority Design Attention: Community entrances are the first impression for residents, guests, and prospective buyers. We treat monument signage and entrance landscaping as the anchor of the whole community’s display, then extend the same lighting language through common areas.
➡️ Built for HOA Budgeting and Approval Timelines: We provide itemized estimates your board can present and approve on your meeting schedule, with options to phase installation across budget cycles if the full community plan doesn’t fit one season.
➡️ Mid-Season Service Included: With hundreds of feet of common-area lighting running for weeks, something will eventually need attention. Community accounts get scheduled mid-season check-ins, not a wait-and-see approach.
