Christmas Light Installation in Hicksville, NY

Christmas light installation in Hicksville, NY

Hicksville is built around its train station the way few other Nassau towns are. Broadway runs past the Hicksville station where the Main Line meets the Oyster Bay Branch, and the closer you get to that corridor, the tighter the lots and the more mixed the housing gets, from older Capes to condo and apartment buildings within walking distance of the platform.

What Hicksville rooflines are actually like

Away from the station, Hicksville is mostly older single-family Capes and ranches on small, close-together lots, similar in age to neighboring Levittown but built with less uniformity from block to block. Side yards are often narrow, sometimes just a few feet between houses, which limits where a ladder can go and means a crew has to plan access before the truck even parks. Closer to Broadway and the station, multi-family and condo buildings become more common, and those need a conversation about whether we’re lighting one unit, a shared entrance, or common property. Either way, parking near the station corridor is tight, so we plan the truck’s spot as carefully as the roofline.

• Streets off West John Street and Old Country Road: older single-family Capes and ranches on tight lots.
• The blocks closest to the Hicksville train station: condo and apartment buildings with shared entrances.
• Homes near Cantiague Park: mostly single-family with more room between houses.
• The Broadway corridor: narrow parking that shapes where the crew can set up.

Getting to Hicksville

Hicksville is about 10 miles from our Amityville base, usually up Route 110 and across on Old Country Road. Because Hicksville sits right next to Levittown and Westbury, we run all three on the same swing through central Nassau instead of separate trips.

Nearby towns we light

These towns border Hicksville and go on the same route:

• Levittown, the original post-war Cape and ranch community, block after block of the same roofline
• Westbury, a village that mixes an older downtown near Post Avenue with newer development close to the Meadowbrook and Northern State corridors
• Syosset, an affluent hamlet of larger, wooded lots with a walkable village center on Jackson Avenue
• Farmingdale, an incorporated village with a real Main Street surrounded by post-war neighborhoods
• Garden City, a planned village of large Tudor and Colonial homes on wide, tree-lined streets

Hicksville lighting questions

Our side yard is only a few feet wide. Can you even get a ladder back there?

In most cases yes, but it takes planning rather than just showing up. Narrow side yards are common close to the station, so we ask about lot width and fence gates when you book, and we bring shorter ladders or pole-mounted tools when a full extension ladder won’t fit. Tell us if there’s a locked gate or a dog in the yard so the crew isn’t guessing on arrival.

I live in a condo building near the train station. Can you still do lights?

It depends on whether the lighting is for your own unit or a shared part of the building. We can usually light an individual entrance or balcony, but a shared roofline or common hallway needs sign-off from the building or management company first, since we’d be working on property that isn’t any one owner’s. Call 631-517-0186 and we’ll ask the right questions before we quote it.

Parking looks tight on our block near Broadway. Does that slow down the job?

It can if we don’t plan for it. Crews working near the station corridor deal with metered spots, permit parking, and narrow streets, so we usually ask about parking when we schedule the job rather than finding out when the truck arrives. A driveway or a nearby side street we can use in advance keeps the install on schedule.
