Lighting a home in Boerne
Lighting a home in Boerne depends on which side of the city line you live on. In town the houses sit near the street, and a clean roofline does most of the work. Out in Kendall County the house may sit far up a drive behind a steel gate, and the gate, the drive and the oaks are seen long before the roof is.
Our crews hang C9 LED roofline lights, trunk and canopy wraps, wreaths, garland and walkway lights in Boerne and on the acreage around it. We measure from your photos and from satellite images. On a Hill Country lot the satellite view often shows live oak canopy where the roof should be, so send photos of every side of the house.
Klema Builders also builds decks, pergolas, fences and steel gates in Boerne. So the entry gate, the fence line along the road and the pergola out back can be lit in one design with the roofline.
How much does it cost in Boerne?
The price of Christmas light installation in Boerne depends on the feet of roofline, one story or two, the roof pitch, how many trees are wrapped and how tall they are, extras such as wreaths and garland, and whether you buy or lease the lights. Every job is quoted as one fixed price in writing, from photos of your home. Payment is 50% at booking and 50% when the install is done.

Where we light in Boerne
- Main Street and River Road
- The Hill Country Mile on Main Street is Boerne's historic downtown, and the city's historic district largely follows it. Dickens on Main is held here during the holidays. Older homes near Main Street and toward River Road, where Highway 46 runs beside Cibolo Creek, suit porch garland and wreaths more than a hard roofline.
- Cordillera Ranch
- A gated community of about 8,700 acres off Highway 46 East in unincorporated Kendall County, with custom homes on homesites of one to ten acres. Its property owners association reviews exterior changes, so ask what applies to seasonal lights before the design is drawn.
- Tapatio Springs
- Hillside and fairway lots around the golf resort off Johns Road, west of Boerne. A hillside house here is seen from above or from below, so the design starts with the side your road faces.
- Esperanza
- A master-planned community off Highway 46 East on the east edge of Boerne, with stone and stucco homes built from the mid-2010s on. The community association's documents cover exterior lighting, so check them before you choose colors.
- Regent Park and Trails of Herff Ranch
- Neighborhood lots, not acreage. Regent Park is off Interstate 10 on the San Antonio side of Boerne, and Trails of Herff Ranch is off Herff Ranch Boulevard near River Road. The front roofline and the entry are the display.
- Menger Springs
- A gated neighborhood off Interstate 10 near Highway 46, with estate homesites of one to five acres and a section of garden homes. A lit ridgeline here can be seen from well below the house.
- Fair Oaks Ranch
- A separate city about seven miles southeast of Boerne that reaches into Bexar, Kendall and Comal counties. Acreage and golf course lots, each under the restrictions for its own unit, so read yours before you book.
- Highway 46 and FM 474 acreage
- Ranches and acreage homes line Highway 46 on both sides of Boerne and FM 474 north toward the Guadalupe River. The entrance is often the only part seen from the road, so a lit gate and the first oaks along the drive carry the display.
What matters in Boerne
- Gates and long drives
- Many Kendall County homes cannot be seen from the county road. We light the steel gate, the entry columns and the fence line beside them, then pick the design up again at the house. Tell us whether there is power at your gate, because that decides what can be lit out there.
- Metal roofs and limestone
- Standing seam metal over rough-cut limestone is the Hill Country look around Boerne. A standing seam roof takes a clip that grips the seam or the eave, and nothing is screwed through a panel. Limestone entry columns are a natural place for a lit wreath.
- Live oaks and cedar
- Boerne's live oaks hold their leaves through winter and take a trunk wrap or a canopy wrap well. Ashe juniper, the tree everyone around Boerne calls cedar, branches low and dense, so it is draped on the outside instead of wrapped limb by limb. Oak wilt is a concern in Kendall County, so a wrap is tied on and nothing is nailed into the bark.
- Deer
- White-tailed deer are common around Boerne. Low strands on shrubs and loose cords across a lawn are what they snag, so we run cords along beds and edges and keep ground-level lights to the walkway.
- Hilltop wind
- A house on a ridge in Tapatio Springs or on open acreage off Highway 46 catches more wind than one on a sheltered street near Cibolo Creek. Long ridge runs, gates and fence lines get extra clips and ties for that reason.
- City, county and association
- Inside the City of Boerne, city ordinances apply, including an outdoor lighting ordinance written to protect the night sky. In unincorporated Kendall County the rules that matter most are usually the deed restrictions recorded for your lot. Esperanza sits outside the city limits but follows several Boerne ordinances under its development agreement. Owners associations and property owners associations around Boerne commonly review exterior lighting and may limit how long decorations stay up, so read your restrictions before you book.
Takedown and storage in Boerne
Christmas light removal in Boerne covers more ground than it does on a city lot, because the display is spread out: the gate at the road, the oaks along the drive, the house on the hill. Our crew walks the whole run, from the gate columns to the pergola out back, and removes each strand, clip, cord and timer. If your association in Boerne or Kendall County sets a day for decorations to come down, tell us when you book. We also remove lights that another company or the owner put up.
Boerne questions
How much does Christmas light installation cost in Boerne?
The price of Christmas light installation in Boerne depends on the feet of roofline, one story or two, the roof pitch, how many trees are wrapped and how tall they are, extras such as wreaths and garland, and whether you buy or lease the lights. Every job is quoted as one fixed price in writing, from photos of your home. Payment is 50% at booking and 50% when the install is done.
Do you install Christmas lights outside the Boerne city limits?
Yes. Our crews work inside the City of Boerne and in unincorporated Kendall County, including Cordillera Ranch, Tapatio Springs and acreage along Highway 46 and FM 474, and in Fair Oaks Ranch next door.
Does my Boerne HOA or POA have to approve Christmas lights?
It depends on your deed restrictions. Communities such as Cordillera Ranch and Esperanza review exterior changes and exterior lighting. Read the restrictions recorded for your lot or ask the association, then tell us what they say and the design follows them.
Can you light a ranch gate and a long driveway in Kendall County?
Yes. Entry gates, columns, the fence line by the road and the trees along the drive can all be part of the design. Send a photo of the entrance and tell us whether there is power at the gate.
Can you hang lights on a standing seam metal roof in Boerne?
Yes. Standing seam takes its own clip, which holds to the seam or the eave without a screw through the panel. Send a photo of the roof edge with your quote request.
What changes the cost of Christmas light installation in Boerne?
Three things matter more in Boerne than on a city lot: the distance from the gate to the house, a sloped lot where the house is one story at the front and two at the back, and the number and size of the live oaks.
Do you take down Christmas lights in Boerne that you did not install?
Yes. Our crews remove lights another company or the owner put up, on the house, the trees and the gate. Send photos of what is up.
What is included in a Christmas light package?
The design, the lights, clips, cords and a timer, installation by our crew, in-season fixes, and takedown after the holidays. Storage depends on the size of the display, so it is quoted with your job.
Should I buy the lights or lease them?
Buying costs more the first season and less every season after, and the lights are yours. Leasing is one price for the season with nothing to own. If you plan to light the house the same way for several years, buying usually makes sense. Ask for both prices on your quote.
What happens if a light goes out during the season?
Call or text (210) 974-1420. If a section goes out during the season, our crew fixes it within 72 hours.
Do you take down lights you did not install?
Yes. Send photos of what is up and you get one fixed price in writing for taking it down.
