What Changes the Price of Christmas Light Installation?
Four things decide your quote. Here is how each one works.
- Roofline length and height. More roofline means more light and more time. A two story with peaks and dormers costs more than a ranch.
- Trees, bushes, and extras. Wrapped trees, lit bushes, and wreaths are quoted per item. You choose what goes in the design.
- Access. Steep pitches and tricky spots take longer to do safely.
- How much of the property gets lit. Front roofline only, or the whole property. You set the budget. We design to it.
What never shows up on your quote: charges for takedown, storage, or mid-season service calls. Those are always included.
