Home › Christmas light installation › Pikesville
Our office is on Reisterstown Road, so Pikesville is the town we are in most weeks. In the holiday season that means a crew close by for the install, and close by again if a section of your display goes dark.
Lighting homes in Pikesville
Pikesville is home for us. 1829 Reisterstown Rd, Suite 350 is a Pikesville address, and the crew that hangs your lights is the same one that works on roofs here all year.
More than half the homes in 21208 were built between 1950 and 1979. Ramblers and split-levels from that period have long, low eaves that take a clean run of lights well. The split-levels also have two or three roof planes at different heights, so part of planning the display is deciding which lines to outline and which to leave dark.
About one home in six here is attached. On a townhouse row the roofline is shared, so it is worth checking with your neighbors, and with your HOA if there is one, before the lights stop at the party wall halfway along a line.
Roughly eleven hundred homes in this ZIP predate 1940, many around Sudbrook Park and the Greenspring corridor, where slate and heavy tile are normal. Slate cracks underfoot and does not take a fastener. On those houses the question of how the lights go up matters more than which lights they are, and it is a question for a roofer.
Housing figures are from published census data for ZIP 21208.
1829 Reisterstown Rd, Suite 350, Pikesville, MD 21208. Licensed in Maryland only — MHIC #114601. We do not work in DC.
Planned around your house
Tell us how much or how little you want. Some people want the roofline and nothing else. Others want the whole front of the house. The plan and the price are in writing before anything goes up.
Why a roofer
Most of the damage from Christmas lights is not visible until spring. These are the things we see on roofs after the decorations come down.
We are a roofing company first. If something looks wrong after the season, we can inspect the roof for free and photograph what we find.
Installation and maintenance
Call or send the form with your address and what you would like lit. A rough idea is enough to start.
We check the roofline, the roof surface and where the power will come from, then put the plan and the price in writing.
Licensed, insured roofers working at height every week of the year, not a seasonal crew borrowed for December.
If a section goes dark, call us and we arrange a visit to put it right.

“It’s been great working with Dmitry and Bravo roofing for several years now. They did a full tear off and replace of my flat roof back in 2019. I had a leak last year and Dmitry came out to inspect. He found that an old roof antenna had fallen off and punctured it.”
Tony DeBraccio · Google“I highly recommend Bravo for any kind of roof repair or construction. Dmitry, the business owner, is meticulous and detailed. He personally assessed the leaking overhang roof in our old house and delivered a thorough and economical solution.”

Yes. Our office is at 1829 Reisterstown Rd, Suite 350, Pikesville, MD 21208. When a section of your display needs attention mid-season, we are minutes away rather than driving in from another county.
Slate needs a different approach because it cracks underfoot and should never have anything fastened through it. We look at the roof before quoting and tell you honestly what can be lit and how. Sometimes the answer is the eaves and the landscaping rather than the ridge.
It depends on how many feet of roofline and gutter are being lit, how high and steep the roof is, and what else is on the plan, such as trees, windows or a walkway. We look at the house first and give you the price in writing, so you are comparing a real number rather than a per-foot estimate that grows on the day.
It should not, and as a roofing company it is the part we care most about. Nothing should be fastened through your shingles, and nobody should be leaning a ladder on your gutters. If you want to know exactly how your roofline will be attached, ask us before the install and we will walk you through it.
If a strand or a section of your display stops working during the season, call us on (410) 977-4411 and we will arrange a visit to put it right. The details for your house are confirmed in your written quote.
Yes. Bravo Roofing is a licensed Maryland home improvement contractor, MHIC #114601, carrying $1,000,000 in liability coverage plus workers compensation. The same people who replace roofs across Baltimore are the ones on yours.
Earlier is better. Installation dates fill as the season gets closer, so calling in the fall gives you the widest choice of dates. Call (410) 977-4411 for the current schedule.
