MP Christmas Lights

Christmas Light Installation in Bluffdale, UTBluffdale lights, inside Bluffdale's lighting rules.

Bluffdale is just south of our shop. It's also one of the few cities around here with a written outdoor-lighting code, and it has a specific holiday exemption. Here's what it says and how we work with it.

What Bluffdale's lighting code says

Bluffdale's code (section 11.160.190) normally requires outdoor lights to be fully shielded and pointed down. Holiday lighting is exempt during November, December and January: seasonal decorations don't need to be shielded, as long as they stay under a brightness limit of 0.1 foot-candles at the property line.

A roofline of C9 bulbs and a few wrapped trees is exactly the kind of seasonal decoration that exemption is written for. It isn't a floodlight pointed at the neighbours.

The exemption runs out at the end of January. Takedown starts on the first of January, so if you want yours down inside the month, say so when you book and we'll put you early on the list.

Bigger lots, barns and long drives

Parts of Bluffdale are zoned for larger lots where horses are allowed. That means homes set back from the road, long fences and outbuildings. We've outlined barns in warm white, doors and all. Tell us what you'd like lit beyond the house and we'll price it.

Bluffdale at Christmas

The city's Santa is Coming to Bluffdale night at Main Park, on 14400 South, brings Santa, cocoa and fire pits, and collects for Primary Children's Hospital. It's a small-town kind of event, and Bluffdale is a small-town kind of place.

The service is the same wherever you are: we hang the lights, keep them working all season, take them down in January and store them for free. How it works.

Bluffdale questions

Local questions, straight answers.

Are Christmas lights allowed under Bluffdale's lighting ordinance?

Yes. Bluffdale's outdoor lighting code exempts holiday lighting during November, December and January. Seasonal decorations don't need shielding in those months, as long as they stay under 0.1 foot-candles at the property line.

Can you light a barn or outbuilding?

Yes. We outline barns, sheds and fences the same way we do a roofline: lights cut to fit, on clips, with no nails or staples. We price it at the free estimate.

Do you work in Independence at the Point?

Yes, and everywhere else in Bluffdale. If your HOA has its own holiday dates, tell us and we'll hang and take down inside them.
