Wondering what factors affect the price of your Christmas light installation in Midlothian or Prosper? We sat down with our dispatcher, Kadie, to break down exactly what influences pricing. Here's what you need to know!
The bulb quality matters! We use commercial-grade C9 bulbs—not store-bought lights. These are the bulbs that go on your roofline and ridgeline, creating that professional, vibrant look.
Why commercial-grade costs more:
The upfront investment in quality bulbs pays off in longevity, appearance, and performance.
We base our pricing off of square footage—specifically, how many linear feet of lights your home needs. This is the primary pricing factor for C9 bulbs on your roofline and ridgeline.
What we measure:
Larger homes with more complex rooflines require more lights and more installation time, which increases the price accordingly.
Beyond the basic roofline, extras are priced individually:
Wreaths: We have multiple different sizes of wreaths available, each with set pricing based on size.
Garland: Set prices depending on length and placement.
Mini Lights (G12s): Used for wrapping columns, trees, and other features. Each strand is 24 feet per piece, so pricing depends on how many strands are needed.
Common extras:
"How big" is the main question! The size of your house and the square footage of roofline are the biggest factors in determining price.
Additional complexity factors:
For C9 bulbs (roofline and ridgeline):Priced per linear foot based on measurements
For mini lights (columns, trees):Priced by 24-foot strands needed
For decorative elements:Set prices per item (wreaths, garland)
