Our Founder
It started with one glowing house in Tampa
More than a decade ago, Jared Dorsey started Everything Outdoors with a simple belief: the outside of a home should bring as much joy as the inside. What began as one crew and a few rooflines has grown into Tampa Bay's most trusted holiday decorating team.
Today Jared still walks properties, still sketches displays and still holds every installation to one standard: when the lights turn on for the first time, the whole family should say "Wow".

Questions
Questions about holiday lighting in Tampa, answered
How much does Christmas light installation cost in Tampa?
Every display is custom, so pricing depends on the size of your home and the design you choose. Most residential projects receive a same-day quote after a quick consultation, and every package includes design, installation, in-season service, takedown and storage.
When should I book my holiday lighting?
October and early November fill up fast across Tampa Bay. Booking early guarantees your preferred installation date and gives our designers time to render your custom display.
Do you take the lights down after the season?
Yes. Takedown is included in every project. Our crews remove everything in a timely manner once the season ends and coordinate each step with you.
Do you store the lights for me?
Yes. Everything Outdoors removes your lights and stores them for you, completely hassle free, so they are ready to shine again next season.
What areas do you serve?
We install across the greater Tampa Bay area, including Tampa, South Tampa, Westchase, Carrollwood, Lutz, Wesley Chapel, Brandon, Riverview, St. Petersburg and Clearwater.
Do you decorate businesses and commercial properties?
Yes. Our commercial division lights malls, restaurants, offices and communities across Tampa. You will work with a dedicated project manager and see custom renderings before installation.
Can you work with my HOA requirements?
Absolutely. We design displays that meet HOA guidelines while still delivering the wow factor, and we can provide documentation for approval when needed.
What happens if a light goes out during the season?
In-season service is part of the experience. If anything stops shining, our team comes back and makes it right so your display looks perfect all season long.
