Reviews FROM OUR CUSTOMERS

Samantha
Using this company was worth every penny! Our lights and decor are so gorgeous and classy looking. We were even provided with a mock up prior to installation to ensure that we approved the overall look. When a bulb stopped working, I called Holiday Lights and they said they will send someone over to fix it immediately. They displayed great customer service and made our home absolutely beautiful without us doing any labor. I would absolutely recommend this company!
Herzel
Great people to deal with! I'll use them again next year for my holiday light decorations for my house. I've hired a few other local companies over the years but always come back to American Holiday Lights. Their crew is always professional and great to work with. They even come out and fix any lights that might go out and then take them down after the season. I think their lighting installation packages are very well priced, especially for the level of service and skill you get.
Vin
Amazing performance. Your staff completed the total decoration of my house this past Tuesday and its beautiful. Your staff of installers were terrific and left my house looking better than I’ve ever seen. Its neat, colorful and professional looking with every bush and tree covered in lights and the roof trim too. I have already had a few neighbors say I should enter in the Naperville best decoration contest. From the sales person (Bernie) who has been extremely responsive, to the installers who were courteous and excellent at their trade, I’m very glad I chose American Holiday Lights. Thank you.

I have been with American Holiday Lights for over five years now and highly recommend them. My single huge evergreen on the corner of my block is the talk of the town. This year we switched to multi colored LED and absolutely love the brilliant colors. They are very responsive to any issues that arise and immediately correct them, e.g. strand goes out, etc. Overall.. excellent!

I have had lights installed for several years and they consistently exceed my expectations. This year I’ve been high maintenance with some changes on my inside electrical panel causing lights to go out. Each time they have responded within an hour of a call. Jon actually visited Thanksgiving morning to solve my issues so that lights could be functional for my guests. I love this company. Highly recommend them. As another year wraps up I just want to mention how much I love American Holiday lights. I cannot imagine the Christmas spirit without them. Thank you to the whole fantastic team. 👏
