How much does Christmas light installation cost in Houston?
Holiday lighting packages start at $750. What moves the number from there is how much roofline you want lit and how high it is, which is why we measure before we quote instead of guessing over the phone. Your written quote lists every selected feature as one price.
What drives your quote
- Scope: the roof runs, windows, trees and entry features you choose.
- Height and access: stories, roof complexity, landscaping and equipment access.
- Materials and ownership: leased seasonal lights, owned seasonal lights or a separate permanent system.
A photo can start the design conversation. We confirm measurements, access and power before the final written price. Your quote lists the selected features and service arrangements; changes are discussed before proceeding.
Choose the scope
The package cards below describe the available scopes. Ridges and hips are optional at every level. Window outlines are separately quoted. Full Estate is a custom plan: wreaths, garland, porch accents and walkway or driveway lighting are selected and separately quoted, not automatically included by the package name.
Seasonal ownership and renewal
Lease the lights and we store them between seasons. Buy them and you store them. Both options include seasonal installation, in-season service and takedown. The product coverage terms appear below and are separate from workmanship.
Next season’s price depends on your agreement, scope and any design changes; we confirm renewal pricing before you renew. Payment arrangements are discussed directly and written on your proposal. No deposit or automatic renewal policy is established by this page.
Permanent lighting is quoted separately
Permanent hardware, installation and service arrangements require their own proposal. The seasonal starting price and holiday promotion do not apply. The established permanent workmanship term is 2 years; hardware coverage is confirmed for the selected product.
Explore permanent lighting, or build a plan for your house and we will quote the scope you choose.
Packages from
$750
Free on-site measure first — we price it after we see your roofline.
Booked and installed before Thanksgiving
15% off
Applies to any holiday lighting installation booked and installed before Thanksgiving.
Warranty on lights & bulbs
Lifetime
On leased lights, for as long as they are on your house. Buy them outright and the term is 5 years.
Both terms cover the lights and bulbs themselves — the product, not a workmanship warranty on the installation. The install is a service we stand behind through the season, and permanent soffit track carries our separate 2-year workmanship term on non-roofing trades.
Packages
Pick how far the light travels.
Three scopes, and one lump-sum price for whichever you choose — quoted after we have measured your actual rooflines, never before. Every package includes the same care; the difference is how much of the property it reaches.
Roofline
The main run — eaves and rakes, the outline everyone sees from the street. The classic, and the right starting point for most houses.
Your lump sum comes after we measure.
- Eaves and rakes
- Gutter line where it suits the house
Ridges and hips are an add-on, not part of the base roofline. Ask and we will price them in.
Roofline — Get this quoted →Roofline + Trees & Bushes
The roofline plus the landscape around it, so the house sits in the light rather than floating above a dark yard.
Your lump sum comes after we measure.
- Everything in Roofline
- Tree trunk and canopy wraps
- Shrub and bed lighting
Ridges and hips remain an add-on at this scope too.
Roofline + Trees & Bushes — Get this quoted →Full Estate
The whole elevation — roof, landscape, entry and approach. For homes where the front of the house is the whole point.
Your lump sum comes after we measure.
- Roofline + Trees & Bushes as the starting scope
- Choose entry, porch and approach accents with your designer
Optional, separately quoted: ridges & hips, window outlines, wreaths & garland, columns & porch, walkway & driveway. Full Estate is a custom plan; these features are included only when listed in your written quote.
Full Estate — Get this quoted →In every package
- Design consult and on-site measure
- Commercial-grade C9 bulbs and wire
- Lights custom-cut to your rooflines
- Professional install on safe roof clips
- Service visits through the season
- January takedown
Then: lease the lights, or own them.
Choose the same scope with leased or owned lights. Storage and product coverage depend on that choice.
Lease the lights
Costs a little less up front, and the lights stay ours — which is precisely why it is the option we stand behind hardest.
- We supply the commercial-grade lights
- Cut to your rooflines — and re-cut and refitted for your house every year
- We store them between seasons, so nothing lives in your garage
- They never leave our care, so we can stand behind the install and the lights together
- Next year is a phone call, not a project
Own the lights
A little more up front, and the lights are yours to keep. Available on any of the three scopes — we will not talk you out of it, but we will be straight about the trade.
- The lights are yours after the first install
- Cut to your rooflines the year we install them
- You store them between seasons
- We stand behind our installation; what happens to the lights in storage is out of our hands
If you would rather own something
Prefer lighting that stays up year-round?
Seasonal lights you own spend eleven months a year in a box, and they have to be re-fitted every time the house or the strand changes. If owning is what you want, soffit track is the better thing to own: it is mounted once, it works every night of the year rather than six weeks of it, there is nothing to store, and it carries our 2-year workmanship term on non-roofing trades.
