The Long-Term Value of Investing in Trimlight’s Permanent Lighting System

When evaluating outdoor lighting options for your home, it’s important to consider both immediate costs and long-term value. Traditional seasonal lighting involves recurring expenses that accumulate significantly over time, while Trimlight’s permanent lighting system represents a one-time investment that delivers lasting benefits and substantial savings.

Understanding the True Cost of Seasonal Lighting

Traditional holiday lighting creates recurring expenses that most homeowners underestimate:

Materials Cost

• Quality string lights cost between $15-$45 per strand
• Most homes (1,000-2,000 square feet) require 15-25 strands
• Light strands deteriorate and require replacement every 1-3 seasons

Professional Installation Fees

• Annual installation costs average $1,400-$2,100 nationwide
• Second-story installation typically costs twice as much as ground level
• Difficult-to-access rooflines add approximately 30% to installation fees
• Removal services cost approximately 50% of installation fees
• Some companies charge separately for materials, installation, and removal

Hidden Expenses

• Storage space for off-season equipment
• Replacement costs for damaged or non-functioning lights
• Higher energy consumption from traditional incandescent bulbs
• Time spent coordinating with seasonal installation companies
• Potential roof or gutter damage from repeated installations

Over a five-year period, most homeowners spend $7,000-$10,500 on professional holiday lighting—with nothing permanent to show for this significant expenditure.
