Christmas lights in Fairway.

What a display in Fairway usually looks like.
Fairway is small, walkable and almost entirely 1940s. The houses are modest capes, colonials and ranches on compact lots, and they sit close to the street with short front walks and narrow driveways. Rooflines are charming and awkward at the same time: steep pitches, a dormer or two, a low entry gable and a run that changes direction twice in forty feet. Trees are old and full, and they lean over the street. Because everything is close together, a Fairway block reads as one display rather than a set of separate houses, and neat spacing on a short roof matters more than volume.
What it costs to light a home in Fairway.
$13 per foot of roofline. The roofline is the whole formula.
A typical Fairway front roofline measures 100 to 140 feet, which is $1,300 to $1,820 at $13 a foot. The larger two-story colonials closer to Mission Road run 150 to 180 feet, or $1,950 to $3,380. These are among the smallest totals we quote, so the money that is left tends to go into detail: a lit wreath at $125 installed, shrub nets at $45 each for the foundation planting, or garland over the entry at $18 a foot. Front trees are large enough to wrap well at $150 each.

Where we work in Fairway.
Shawnee Mission Parkway runs along the north side, Mission Road bounds the west and State Line sits east, with 55th and 63rd crossing through. The Shawnee Indian Mission historic site is the landmark at the center of the city, and we route around it and the city pool and park area. Streets are short and often one-way in practice once cars are parked, so we work a block at a time and keep the truck at the end of the street rather than in front of the house.

Three things to know about lights in Fairway.
Roofline changes direction more than you expect
A Fairway front can have three separate short runs at different heights. We measure all of them, which is why the quoted footage is often higher than a homeowner guesses from looking at the front of the house.
Tight lots mean the neighbors see the details
Houses here are close enough that a sagging line or uneven spacing is obvious from the sidewalk. We clip at consistent intervals along the whole run rather than stretching between the corners.
Narrow driveways change how we stage
Most Fairway drives are single width with a tree at the end. We stage ladders on the drive and carry across the front, so letting us know about a parked car or a low limb keeps the install to one visit.

Questions from Fairway.
Is a small Fairway house worth hiring out?
That is your call. A 120-foot Fairway roofline is about $1,560 at $13 per foot. What you are paying for is the steep pitch and the three short runs at different heights that make these 1940s roofs awkward, plus the lights, the timer, in-season repairs, January takedown and storage.
How quickly can you reach a Fairway house?
Fairway is about five minutes from our shop at 5202 Newton Street in Mission, which makes it one of the closest cities we serve. That matters most for repairs during the season, which are included at no charge, rather than for booking, which still goes in the order jobs come in.
Do you do holiday light installation on Fairway's older, steep roofs?
Yes. The 1940s roofs here are steep and short, with dormers and direction changes. We use plastic clips on the shingle edge and the gutter lip and never nails, staples or screws. Send the address and we will measure from satellite imagery and text a price within 24 hours.
Will this damage my roof or gutters?
No. Plastic clips made for shingles and gutters. Nothing is stapled, nailed or screwed in, and nothing is left behind after takedown.
Do I have to take them down?
No. Takedown in January and storage are part of the $13 per foot. Next year is one text message.
