The Team

Our holiday lighting team is a compilation of skilled rope access technicians and arborists that are able to perform at heights safely and efficiently.  We do a lot of work high above the ground and our specialized employees with years of experience are what make this possible. These aren't a couple of landscapers looking for side work in the fall; each team member is trained and skilled at what they do, and this enables us to take on the largest most demanding installations the Western Slope has to offer. We have lit trees that stand 100 feet in height and have been on the rooftops of many of the most renowned hotels and homes in the area. Our use of advanced rope access techniques and focus on safety allow us to complete incredible jobs quickly and efficiently.

We look forward to working together.
