What Christmas lights cost in Stockbridge
We price by the linear foot of roofline. Here is what that number includes and what moves it up or down.
A firm quote comes after we know your address and what you want lit.
What the price includes
- Commercial-grade lights, supplied by us
- Professional hanging with clips, not nails
- Service visits if a section goes out
- Takedown in January
- Storage until next season
We are insured and bonded, and none of this is billed separately.
Why one house costs more than another
The spread between $8 and $15 comes from four things.
Height
Taller eaves need more equipment and more setup time.
Roof pitch
Steeper roofs are slower and need extra safety measures.
Detail
Peaks, dormers and corners take longer than a straight run.
Footage
A bigger house has more roofline, and larger jobs add up.
Extras are quoted on top
The per-foot rate covers the roofline. Trees, shrubs, wreaths, walkways and ground lighting are priced by size and quantity, so tell us what you are picturing. Most people add a few extras the first year and more as they see how the house looks lit.
A photo of the front of your house and the trees you want lit is usually enough for us to give you a solid number.
Pricing questions
Why is there a range instead of one price?
Because no two roofs are alike. A low, simple ranch is quick. A tall, steep, multi-gabled house takes more time, more equipment and more care, so the per-foot rate moves up.
What is included in the per-foot price?
The lights, the installation, in-season maintenance, takedown and off-season storage. There is no separate fee for the lights themselves.
How do you measure my roofline?
Often we can estimate from your address and a few photos. For a firm number we measure the actual edges you want lit, peak to peak, along the eaves and any dormers.
Does roof height and pitch change the price?
Yes, both do. Extra height needs bigger equipment and a steep pitch slows the work down, so those roofs sit toward the top of the range.
What costs extra beyond the roofline?
Tree wrapping, wreaths, bushes, pathway lights and ground displays are quoted on top, based on size and how many you want.
Do I pay a deposit?
We will lay out payment terms in your written quote so you know them before you say yes. Ask us if you want specifics ahead of that.
Is the quote really free?
Yes. Call, text or fill out the form and you will get a price with no obligation.
Can I start small and add later?
Absolutely. Plenty of customers begin with the roofline and add trees and wreaths the following year.
How much do Christmas lights cost per foot?
Our installed price runs $8 to $15 per linear foot. That includes the lights, labor, repairs, takedown and storage.
What is the average cost to hang Christmas lights in metro Atlanta?
It varies by company and by house. In Stockbridge, our range is $8 to $15 per linear foot, with the exact figure depending on height, pitch and detail.
How much would a typical roofline cost?
Multiply your roofline length by a rate in the $8 to $15 range. A longer or more detailed roofline costs more. We will measure and confirm before you commit.
Is it cheaper to buy the lights and hang them myself?
The lights are cheaper than our service, but you also take on the ladder work, the repairs, the takedown and the storage. Many people find the full-service route worth it.
Do you charge a travel fee?
No. Your price is built on the work at your property, not on mileage.
Are there any hidden fees?
No. Your written quote lists what is included and what is not, so you can see the full picture before agreeing.
