What changes the price
How much roofline
Most of the cost is the feet of lights along the roof and gables. More edges, more lights.
How tall and steep
Two stories and steep roofs take more ladder work and time.
Trees and bushes
Wrapping trunks and branches adds lights and labor. Big trees cost more to wrap.
Extras
Wreaths, garland, walkway lights, and window outlines each add to the total.
Whose lights
Some installers include the lights. Some sell them to you the first year. Some will hang yours.
First year vs. next year
Many installers charge less in later years once the lights are cut to fit your home.
What should be included
Ask every installer what happens if lights go out, when takedown happens, and who keeps the lights.
- A design planned around your home
- Commercial-grade LED lights
- Professional installation: no ladders for you
- Free fixes if a bulb or strand goes out during the season
- Takedown and storage after the holidays
