Riverhead sits right where the Peconic River widens into Peconic Bay and Long Island splits into its North and South Forks. As the Suffolk County seat, first named in 1727, it has a real downtown, with Main Street storefronts, a riverfront and historic buildings like the Vail-Leavitt Music Hall, surrounded by residential neighborhoods, Polish Town and working farmland. That range calls for different kinds of holiday lighting. For a colonial or cape on a neighborhood street, a clean C9 LED outline along the gutters and peaks may be all it needs. For a larger home at the edge of the farm fields, a full-property design can carry the glow out to the trees and the drive.
We install for both residential and commercial customers in Riverhead. A business along Main Street or near the riverfront can draw in holiday shoppers with bright rooflines and windows, and our crew handles the whole job, including maintenance during the season if a bulb goes out. At home, the open land around many Riverhead properties means steady winter wind, so we fasten every run with commercial-grade clips and plan the layout to stay secure. When the season is over, we take everything down and store it until next year, and installs typically happen within 48 hours of booking.

Around Riverhead: Downtown, Riverfront and Local Favorites
Downtown Riverhead has worked hard to reinvent itself, and its riverfront, historic theater and museums now draw visitors year-round. The Railroad Museum of Long Island near the LIRR station even celebrates the local tradition of holiday model trains. Beyond downtown, Polish Town, residential streets and open farm fields give the hamlet a mix of in-town and country homes, each of which shines in its own way when the December lights go up.
Long Island AquariumThe downtown aquarium, which opened in 2000, anchors the riverfront and brings families into Riverhead all winter.
Vail-Leavitt Music HallThis late-19th-century theater on Peconic Avenue still hosts live shows and community events in about 300 seats.
Railroad Museum of Long IslandHoused in a former lumber company building on Griffing Avenue, it keeps Long Island's Christmas model-train tradition alive.
Peconic RiverThe river turns from freshwater to estuary at Riverhead on its way to Flanders Bay, shaping the downtown waterfront.
Riverhead RacewayLong Island's only auto racing venue, a quarter-mile oval with a figure-eight course that first opened in 1951.

Riverhead Holiday Lighting FAQs
Do you install holiday lights for businesses on Main Street in Riverhead?
Yes. We handle commercial installations as well as homes, including rooflines, entryways and landscaping. A bright storefront can help draw holiday shoppers downtown. Maintenance throughout the season, takedown and storage are included. Call our Suffolk line at 631-515-7882 to talk about your building and timing.
Our home is surrounded by open farmland. Will the wind be a problem?
Open properties do see more wind, so we fasten every run with commercial-grade clips and plan the layout for the exposure. Because season maintenance is included, if weather loosens a section or a bulb goes out, call us and we will come back and fix it.
What lighting works best on a larger Riverhead property with a long driveway?
Our Premium package suits bigger lots. It covers the full roofline and adds bushes and hedges with nets or string lights, tree wrapping, wreaths and garlands, driveway and walkway borders, and specialty décor like icicles or snowflakes. It also includes a full design consultation to plan the whole property.
Can you add color patterns to our roofline?
Yes. Custom color patterns are part of our Deluxe package, which lights the full roofline including gutters, peaks, ridges, dormers and gables. It also includes a power extension and timer. We will help you choose a pattern that suits your home and your street.
How soon can you install in Riverhead after I book?
Installs typically happen within 48 hours of booking. Schedules get busier as the holidays approach, so calling early gives you more choice of dates. Our hours are Monday through Friday 9am to 5pm and Saturday and Sunday 10am to 6pm, and our Suffolk line is 631-515-7882.
