Holiday and Christmas lighting installs by Greenville Light Co. in Greenville, South Carolina

Greenville Light Co. is Nick's company. Last year was the first season: a handful of houses, a stack of yard signs, and a lot of time on ladders learning what makes a display look right from the street.

This is the second season, and lighting is the whole business. A lot of the holiday lighting around the Upstate is sold as a side line by companies that clean exteriors, cut grass or rent party gear. For us it is the only thing we do, so the design, the install and the follow-up get all of our attention.

We are based in Greenville and work across the Upstate, from Travelers Rest to Simpsonville and from Taylors out to Easley. If a strand goes dark, you call Nick.
