HOW CAN WE BEST SERVE YOU?

HOW MUCH DO PERMANENT CHRISTMAS LIGHTS COST?

Installation-only pricing commonly ranges from $10 to $15 per linear foot when the homeowner has already purchased the lighting system. 

Many national home-improvement companies start their initial quotes around $55+ per linear foot.  During the in-home sales presentation, however, it’s not uncommon for substantial discounts to be offered, bringing pricing closer to $35 per linear foot. 

The average cost of permanent christmas lights in Northeast Ohio range from approximately $24 to $27 per linear foot depending on the product, roof complexity, and services included.

At Hudson Christmas Lighting Experts, homeowners work directly with the owners. We do not have commissioned salespeople on our staff either.  Our permanent installed LED christmas lights typically range from $21 to $23 per linear foot, including materials, installation, workmanship warranty, smart app education, and customer support after the installation is complete. Oh, by the way, we provide a complimentary follow up visit to walk you through the entire smart app so you feel confident using the system.  We’re always here to answer any follow up questions too.

Already Purchased Govee or Outdoor Lights For Your Home?

There’s a reason we have experience installing nearly every major permanent lighting system on the market. Many of our customers started out as do-it-yourselfers. They purchased a system, climbed the ladder, and installed it themselves, only to find out that permanent outdoor lighting is a little more complicated than stringing up Christmas lights for the holidays.

After a Northeast Ohio winter, heavy snow, driving rain, high winds, and constant temperature changes can quickly expose the weaknesses of an installation. Adhesive can fail, lights can come loose, wiring can become exposed, and a system that looked great when it first went up can start creating problems.

That’s when many homeowners call us.

We’ve helped repair, replace, and professionally install systems after homeowners realized they had gotten in over their heads. A permanent lighting system is designed to stay on your home year round, through everything Northeast Ohio weather can throw at it. How it is mounted, protected, wired, and installed matters just as much as the lights themselves.

YEAR ROUND ENJOYMENT

One of the biggest advantages of a permanent holiday lighting system is that it becomes part of your home every day of the year. Whether you’re celebrating a holiday, hosting family, watching the big game, or simply enjoying a quiet evening outside, your lighting can instantly create the perfect atmosphere with the touch of a button.

NOT ALL CHRISTMAS LIGHTS ARE EQUAL

One of the most important differences between our system and many permanent lighting products is RGBCW technology. This means that your lights are not simulating “white” but actually creating a true white light.  It also means that those warm, soft golden hues that you’re seeking, can be created with this technology.

Traditional RGB lights use red, green, and blue channels. Those three colors can be combined to create a broad range of effects, but when an RGB system attempts to produce white, (the primary color of choice for security lighting), it must simulate white by blending colors. The result may appear bluish, washed out, or less natural than the white light homeowners expect from premium architectural lighting.

Our RGBCW technology adds dedicated white-light capability rather than relying entirely on a red-green-blue mixture. That produces cleaner, more convincing white tones for the evenings when you do not want a holiday display. You’ll also notice with our system that you’ll have 2 bulbs side by side. One of those bulbs is the dedicated RGBCW white bulb.

DOES YOUR CHRISTMAS LIGHT INSTALLER REALLY MATTER?

Absolutely. Purchasing permanent lights is only part of the investment. Equally important is choosing the right Christmas light installer. Even an excellent lighting product cannot perform the way it should if it is designed or installed incorrectly.

A professionally planned installation should complement your home’s architecture, provide years of dependable performance, and include support long after the installation is complete.

At Hudson Christmas Lighting Experts, we don’t hire temporary installers who are simply looking for work after the landscaping season ends. Our installers are professionally trained, experienced, and work with permanent outdoor lighting systems year after year. They understand proper mounting, electrical connections, wire management, track placement, rooflines, fascia, soffits, and how to create a finished installation that looks like it belongs on your home.

Experience becomes even more important during the late fall and winter months in Northeast Ohio. Cold temperatures, rain, wind, frost, snow, and slippery roof surfaces can make working from ladders and along rooflines dangerous. This is not the time to learn on the job.

Our installation professionals carry commercial liability insurance and have the training and experience needed to work safely around your home. We climb the ladders and work along the roofline so you don’t have to.

Permanent lighting is meant to stay on your home for years. The quality of the installation matters every bit as much as the quality of the lights.

WHY CHOOSE US?

 Our reputation isn’t built on flashy sales presentations or how many TV ads we can broadcast in a 1 hour segment while you watch the news. Nope, it’s built on delivering exceptional results.

Most of our customers spent years putting up and taking down holiday lights every season.  Eventually, they reached the same conclusion: ‘there had to be a better way’.  They wanted a permanent lighting solution that looked beautiful year-round, eliminating the safety risks and annual hassle.  We tell our prospects all the time, call Hudson Christmas Lighting Experts LAST! Go out and get those other estimates first.  You’ll come to agree that you will have saved the best for last!

With decades of industry experience, premium materials, meticulous installation standards, and one of the most comprehensive warranties in the industry, we build architectural lighting solutions that are designed to perform elegantly for years to come.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

I already purchased a lighting system like Govee. Can you install it?

Absolutely. If you’ve already purchased a permanent lighting system, we’d be happy to discuss professional installation. Many homeowners discover that installing permanent lighting safely and neatly is more challenging than expected. We can professionally install many customer-supplied systems or help you compare them with our commercial-grade options before you decide.

I see that you specialize in holiday lighting, both permanent and seasonal, but what if I only want security lighting or accent lighting? Can you install that as a standalone service?

Absolutely. While we’re well known for holiday lighting, our outdoor lighting services are available completely independently.  Whether you want architectural accent lighting to showcase you home, security lighting for added visibility or peace of mind, or a complete outdoor landscape lighting design, we can create a system specifically for your property.  There is no need to purchase holiday lighting – or any other service – to work with us.

Are permanent outdoor holiday lights worth the investment?

For most homeowners, absolutely.

A typical home with 150 linear feet of lighting costs approximately $3,450–$3,900 installed (based on $23–$26 per linear foot). Compare that to professionally installed seasonal lighting in Northeast Ohio, which averages around $1,550 per season and often approaches $2,000 for larger homes.

In just two to three holiday seasons, many homeowners spend nearly as much on temporary lighting as they would on a permanent lighting system. After that, every season is money saved—without paying for installation, removal, storage, or replacing worn-out light strands and the ever increasing cost of inflation.

Can I see what permanent house lights will look like on my home before I buy?

Sure—and this is one of the things that truly sets Hudson Christmas Lighting Experts apart.

We use our proprietary AI home visualization technology to create a realistic rendering of your actual home before you make a purchase. You’ll see exactly how your home will look with professionally installed permanent roofline lighting before any installation begins.

We’ll create multiple custom renderings, including:

  • Christmas
  • Halloween
  • Patriotic
  • Elegant accent and security lighting

During your free in-home consultation, we’ll also provide a complete product demonstration, show you how the smart app works, explain the installation process, answer your questions, and help design a lighting system that perfectly complements your home’s architecture.

Our goal is simple: we want you to feel completely confident in your investment before you buy.

I only want lights for Christmas. Are permanent Xmas lights really worth it?

Most homeowners buy the system for Christmas but quickly realize they use it all year long.

Celebrate Christmas, Halloween, Valentine’s Day, St. Patrick’s Day, Easter, Independence Day, birthdays, graduations, game days, backyard barbecues, and family gatherings with the touch of a button. The rest of the year, enjoy elegant architectural accent lighting or subtle security lighting that enhances your home’s curb appeal every evening.

It’s much more than holiday lighting—it’s year-round exterior lighting.

I am interested landscape lighting or accent lighting, but I don’t want my home to look like it’s decorated for Christmas.

That’s one of the most common questions homeowners ask.

The good news is that it doesn’t have to.

Because every light is individually programmable through the smart app, we typically recommend a subtle architectural lighting pattern with every third light illuminated using a soft white tone. Thanks to our RGBCW technology, we can create beautiful, natural white lighting that gives your home an elegant, upscale appearance—not the look of holiday decorations.

The result is tasteful landscape lighting that most people never realize is the very same system you’ll use for colorful holiday displays.

Is there really a difference between RGB and RGBCW lighting?

RGB lighting creates colors using red, green, and blue LEDs.

RGBCW systems add a dedicated white LED, producing cleaner, brighter, and more natural white light for everyday accent and security lighting while still delivering brilliant holiday colors.

That means one lighting system can beautifully handle Christmas, entertaining, architectural lighting, and security lighting all year long.  It is clearly a cut above and only available with a very few premium systems on the market today.  It makes a world of difference!

My neighbor’s adhesive lighting string is falling off the soffit and it looks tacky. Will that happen with your system?

No!

Our lighting is permanently mounted using professional fastening methods—not peel-and-stick adhesive strips. The result is an elegant clean, secure installation designed to withstand Northeast Ohio’s wind, rain, snow, and changing temperatures.

Our lighting components are also built for harsh outdoor conditions and are weatherproof. The finished installation with the low profile track blends naturally into your home’s eave and soffit structure and looks like it was designed to be there.

I’ve seen bulky track lighting systems. Will your lighting look like that?

Not at all.

Our architectural, low-profile track is engineered to blend seamlessly into your soffits and roofline. It’s lightweight, discreet, and virtually disappears during the day while delivering brilliant lighting after sunset.

Beautiful at night. Virtually invisible during the day.

If I use your LED Christmas lights all year round, how long do they last?

Our LED lighting is rated for up to 50,000 hours of operation. At an average of 5 to 6 hours per evening, that’s more than 25 years of expected use.

Every professionally installed system is backed by our 5-year warranty, giving you confidence that your investment is built for long-term performance.

Are permanent lights only for decorating?

Not at all.

Permanent lighting adds beauty, convenience, and functionality throughout the year. Choose elegant warm-white lighting for everyday curb appeal, brighten your home for entertaining, customize colors for every holiday, celebrate life’s biggest moments, or add exterior lighting that improves visibility around your home after dark.

It’s one permanent lighting system designed for every season, every occasion, and every stage of homeownership.
