Is there a holiday lighting company that serves Leawood homes?
RM Lighting Solutions serves Leawood homes and businesses with professional holiday lighting. The crew is based in Topeka and drives over for Leawood installs, and Leawood sits inside the Johnson County part of our service area. Call the Kansas City number, (816) 938-9249, and the person who answers is part of the crew that will be on your roof.
The company is Ray Mendoza’s. He has spent 9 going on 10 years as a professional roofer, his father roofs too, and in 2025 he started putting his roof time toward holiday lights. Google shows us at 5.0 from 19 reviews so far, and we’re fully insured on every job.
How do you light a tall, steep Leawood roof safely?
A tall, steep Leawood roof gets lit safely by people who climb roofs for a living. Ray has handled more than $10 million in exterior projects, so a tall peak over a stone entry or a steep second-story gable is familiar ground. The crew checks the pitch before anyone goes up, then sets clips that hold the line without lifting shingles or catching on flashing.
That matters more in Leawood than most places. Plenty of the custom homes here have a lot of roof planes meeting at different heights, plus dormers and valleys that are easy to step wrong on. A homeowner on a ladder with a bag of clips is a real fall risk on a house like that, and a misplaced foot on a valley can crack shingles that cost real money to replace.
Being roofers, we notice roof problems while we work. If a ridge cap is loose or a gutter is pulling off its hangers, we’ll tell you while we’re up there. One Google reviewer, Dale Cox, ended up having Ray patch and repair his roof during his light install.
Each edge gets a strand of commercial-grade C9 LEDs cut to its exact length. That is how the lines stay level on a house with no two edges the same.
Can you wrap the trees and the front entry too?
Yes, the crew wraps trees and dresses the front entry on Leawood homes. Big landscaped lots here usually have mature trees near the drive, and those can be lit along with the roofline. Wreaths and garland go on the door, the columns or the porch rail. All of it shows up in your free mockup before you agree to anything.
Most people still start with the roofline and add from there. The north end of Leawood has older ranches and split-levels with simpler lines, and on those a lit tree or two out front often does as much as a second roofline would. Warm white is the color we hang most, and a clean, even outline is what Leawood homeowners ask for now. The heavy icicle look has mostly faded out.
What will lights on a Leawood house cost?
Holiday lights on a Leawood house start at a $500 minimum, and a $100 deposit locks in your install date. Every proposal comes in Good, Better and Best packages, so you see a few ways to light the same house side by side. Measurements come from satellite imagery, which means most quotes need no visit.
You can see how the packages are built on the pricing page. Replies usually come back in 1 to 2 hours, Monday through Saturday, 8 to 6. The fastest way to start is to send your address on the contact page.
Do I have to store the lights myself in Leawood?
No. Leawood customers on the seasonal lease never store anything. We bring the lights, hang them, keep them burning through the season and come back on a set date in winter to take them down. The strands go back to our storage and come out again next fall. Nothing piles up in your basement, and nobody in the house has to haul a ladder out in the cold.
If a bulb goes dark, we’re back within 24 hours to fix it. Timers are part of the setup. The full rundown on residential holiday lighting covers the season week by week. Some Leawood owners skip the yearly cycle and go with permanent lighting, which we install any time of year.
Do you decorate Leawood shops and offices?
RM Lighting decorates Leawood shops, offices and other commercial properties with the same commercial-grade materials used on homes. Retail centers around Town Center Plaza and Park Place are the kind of places where clean building outlines and lit entryways draw people in during the holidays. See the commercial holiday lighting page for how business installs work.
We also light homes just north in Prairie Village and west in Overland Park.

Common Questions
Holiday lighting questions from Leawood
Can you put lights on a steep, two-story Leawood roof?
RM Lighting Solutions lights steep, tall Leawood roofs regularly, because the owner, Ray Mendoza, has been a professional roofer for 9 going on 10 years. The crew reads the pitch first and works it from the roof or a ladder, whichever is safe for that slope.
Do you light trees and landscaping at Leawood homes?
Tree and landscape lighting is part of what RM Lighting Solutions installs in Leawood, along with wreaths, garland and entryway pieces. It can be added to any roofline package and shows up in the free mockup of your home before you decide.
Is the Leawood quote done in person?
Most Leawood quotes need no visit. RM Lighting Solutions measures the house from satellite imagery and sends an interactive proposal with a mockup of your home, usually within 1 to 2 hours during business hours, Monday through Saturday, 8 to 6.

Leawood customers call the RM Lighting Solutions Kansas City line at (816) 938-9249. The crew is based in Topeka and drives over for each Leawood job, and the phone is always answered by the team that does the work.
