Christmas Light Installation in Poquott, NY

Christmas & Holiday Lighting in Poquott

Ask anyone in Poquott for directions and they'll point you to Poquott Village Beach or Setauket Harbor. Poquott is a tiny village on the neck between Setauket and Port Jefferson harbors — village beaches on both sides and modest homes on small lots that face water in every direction. The homes run to harbor-front homes on Port Jefferson Harbor and Setauket Harbor, 1950s and '60s ranches and Capes on the village's small lots, and rebuilt contemporaries on the bluff, and that range is exactly why a one-size display doesn't work here.

Here's what we've learned lighting Poquott: harbor-front homes get salt air from two sides; sealed strands throughout. The harbor keeps the gusts down; it doesn't keep the salt out of an unsealed plug. So sealed commercial strands everywhere, and a ladder plan drawn up on the design visit for the terraced lots that drop toward the water.
