Thick rinds, never carved
Heirloom varieties like blue-gray Jarrahdale, Cinderella and white Lumina store for weeks. Carving pumpkins are bred to be cut, not to last.

Trick-or-treat walkwaySteps and front walk · Quoted from your address
The part nobody photographs and everyone walks on.
Wet leaves and moss on the steps are a slip on Halloween night. We wash the walk, the steps and the porch floor before the pumpkins go down, so the display sits on clean concrete.
See pressure washingStylists bring pumpkins.
We bring the pumpkins, the ladder and the pressure washer.
Porch styling companies decorate. We are the people who already know which side of your house stays wet, where the downspout splashes, and how to hang a strand on a two-story roofline in the rain without leaving a mark. That is what makes a Halloween porch last in Portland.
Built for the wet season
Four things we do that a bag of pumpkins from the store does not.
Off the concrete, under cover
Straw and boards keep the base dry. The covered porch works first, then the top step. Nothing sits where a downspout splashes.
Replaced free before Halloween
If a pumpkin softens before the 31st, we swap it. You text a photo, we bring a new one on the next route.
Same crew for the roofline
Insured, on the ladder every week of the year. Two-holiday lights go up once, and the pumpkins come away free at Thanksgiving with any lights booking.
The October we run
One calendar, no ladders for you.
Every date is a text the day before. You do not need to be home for any of it.
Roofline lights go up
Color-changing C9 bulbs on a commercial strand, timer set, Halloween colors on before we leave.
Pumpkin install weeks
You pick the week at checkout. We buy from farms around Portland that week and style the porch to the house.
Halloween
The porch is two to four weeks in and still firm. The walkway is washed. The roofline is glowing.
One click to Christmas
Switch the roofline to warm white or red and green with the remote. No second ladder, no second install fee.
Pumpkins out, lights on
Removal is free with a lights booking. The pumpkins go to a local farm as feed, not a landfill.
Pick the mood
Four porch palettes. Same pumpkins, chosen for the look.
Tell us at checkout or by text. No price change. We match the house color and the door.
Harvest
Orange-forward with gold and rust mums. The classic Portland porch.
Farmhouse
Mostly white and blue-gray with a few soft pinks. Calm, modern, reads well on dark siding.
Haunt
Ghost whites, blue-gray, warty goblins and deep greens. Halloween without a single plastic skeleton.
Full mix
Everything the farm had that week. The most color, the most texture.

Halloween questions, answered.
Do you carve pumpkins?
No. A carved pumpkin is a five-day pumpkin in Portland weather, and ours is an eight-week porch. Every pumpkin we set is an uncarved heirloom variety, so the display is still standing at Thanksgiving. If you want a jack-o'-lantern for the 31st, carve one of your own the week of Halloween and we style the porch with a spot for it.
Will the pumpkins survive Portland's October rain?
That is the whole design. We pick thick-rind heirloom varieties over thin carving pumpkins, keep every one off the wet concrete on straw and boards, put the covered porch to work first, and never carve. Any pumpkin that fails before Halloween is replaced free.
Can the roofline lights really do Halloween and Christmas?
Yes. We hang a commercial C9 strand with color-changing bulbs and a controller once, in late September or early October. It runs orange and purple through Halloween, then you switch it to warm white, red and green, or any Christmas mix with the remote. We take it down in January.
Is it too late to book?
Porch pumpkin installs run Oct 1 to 18 and close as the weeks fill. Two-holiday roofline lights book into mid-October so they are up before Halloween. Christmas-only installs continue into November.
Do you do inflatables, animatronics or yard graveyards?
No. We do the porch, the roofline and the walkway: the parts that make a house look cared for from the street. If you want a skeleton on the lawn, it will look better next to a porch that was styled on purpose.
What happens after Halloween?
Nothing you have to do. The pumpkins keep going through Thanksgiving, the lights switch to Christmas by remote, and we remove the pumpkins free with any lights booking. Removal on its own is a $75 add-on.
