Ames is our second home market, and it is a different job than Ankeny. Older homes near campus and in Old Town have detailed trim, deep porches and mature trees, while newer additions on the north and west sides have tall, steep rooflines. We plan each Ames display around what the house actually gives us to work with rather than forcing one template onto every property.
Character homes reward detail work: outlining porch rooflines, running garland along railings, lighting dormers and picking up gable trim. On newer two-story homes we focus on clean, continuous peak and roofline runs with matched color temperature. Every strand is cut to length for your house and stored under your name, so year two looks exactly like year one and installs faster.
Ames businesses see heavy foot traffic in November and December, and student housing turns over fast. We install for restaurants, retail, offices, property managers and apartment communities on a set schedule, with one point of contact and a crew that stays out of your customers' way.
Ames has some of the best mature trees in Central Iowa. Wrapping trunks and lighting canopies makes a bigger visual impact here than almost anywhere we work. We use commercial-grade product and clips rated for wind and ice so the display holds through a Story County winter instead of drooping after the first storm.
Your Ames install includes in-season service calls, post-holiday removal and storage of your labeled display. We schedule takedown after the New Year, weather permitting, and everything comes back with us.
We install in Ames from late October through mid-December and dates fill from the north metro outward. Requesting a quote in the late summer or early fall gets you the widest choice of install weeks and locks pricing before the season.
