Permanent lighting cost in Houston
What sets the price, what comes with the install, and how to get an exact number for your house.
Texas Beam Co. quotes permanent lighting in Houston per home. We don't publish a per-foot price for it, because no two rooflines are the same. Your free design measures the roofline and gives you an exact number, with a lit preview of your own house, before you decide. No obligation.
For comparison, our seasonal Christmas light installation is $8 per linear foot of roofline, every season.
What sets the price of permanent lighting
Roofline footage. The biggest factor. The track runs along the eaves and up each gable, so more linear feet means more track and more LEDs. The roofline estimator below gives you a starting number.
Height. A one-story ranch is a different job from a three-story home with tall gables.
Which sides you light. The front only, the front and sides, or the whole house.
Roof shape. Gables, peaks and corners add footage compared with a simple straight eave on a home of the same size.

Permanent lighting vs. paying for Christmas lights every year
A seasonal install is a cost that comes back every year. At $8 per linear foot, a 150-foot roofline is $1,200 for one Christmas season, and the lights come down after the holidays. Permanent lighting is a one-time install that also covers Fourth of July, game days and a warm white glow every other night of the year.
For your house, divide your permanent quote by what one season of Christmas lights costs you. That's roughly how many seasons it takes to break even, before counting any of the other nights. We can price both side by side. See the full comparison, or check Christmas install pricing.
