Frequently Asked Questions – Christmas Lights in Ann Arbor

What types of Christmas lights do you use in Ann Arbor?

We exclusively use professional-grade LED lights for all our Ann Arbor installations because they’re built to last and perform reliably throughout Michigan’s harsh winter conditions. These energy-efficient lights are designed to withstand freezing temperatures, snow, and ice while maintaining their brightness and color consistency all season long, giving you that premium look that makes your home stand out in the neighborhood.

Are your Christmas lights energy-efficient?

Absolutely! Our LED lights are incredibly energy-efficient and use significantly less electricity than traditional incandescent bulbs, which means you can enjoy a spectacular holiday display without worrying about your energy bill skyrocketing. You’ll typically see energy savings of up to 80% compared to older bulb types, making it easy to keep your lights on throughout the entire holiday season without breaking the bank.

When is the best time to schedule a Christmas light installation in Ann Arbor?

We recommend scheduling your installation in the early fall to ensure your lights are up before the first major snowfall hits Ann Arbor. Michigan weather can be unpredictable, and getting your lights installed before harsh winter conditions arrive means you’ll have your beautiful display ready for Thanksgiving through New Year’s without weather delays affecting the timeline.

We proudly serve all areas of Ann Arbor, including neighborhoods surrounding the University of Michigan campus, downtown areas, and residential districts throughout the city.

How do your lights hold up during Ann Arbor’s snowy winters?

Our commercial-grade LED lights and professional installation methods are specifically designed to handle Michigan’s challenging winter weather, including heavy snow, ice storms, and freezing temperatures. We use weatherproof connections and secure mounting techniques that prevent damage from snow accumulation and ice buildup, so your lights stay bright and beautiful throughout the entire holiday season regardless of what Mother Nature brings.

Ethan Brooks

Hello, my name is Ethan and I am the Franchise Partner for Shack Shine Ann Arbor. My passion for cleaning and detailing started at a young age as I worked at a local car wash throughout high school and college.

Always having an interest in entrepreneurship, I attended Eastern Michigan University where I majored in Business with a discipline in Entrepreneurship. It was here where I had great hopes of one day starting and owning my own successful business.

After spending 3 years in corporate sales with a siding and windows company, I reassured myself that entrepreneurship was indeed for me. After several months of searching, I came across Shack Shine who is under the O2E Brands umbrella, that also includes 1-800 Got Junk and WOW 1 Day Painting. It was a perfect match, and exactly what I was looking for!

It is my hope to be an active business owner in the area, and make our great community SHINE one Shack at a time! If you see the Shack Shine team around in our Shiny Van, waive us down and say hi, we are ready to serve!
