Permanent vs. Seasonal Christmas Lights: Which Is Right for Your CT Home?

If you are tired of hanging Christmas lights every year, you have two good options: hire someone to install seasonal lights, or put up permanent lights once and leave them there. Here is how we explain the difference to homeowners around Connecticut.

How Seasonal Lights Work

With our seasonal Christmas lights, you lease the lights instead of buying them. We design the display, install it before the holidays and come back afterward to take it down and pack it up. If something goes out during the season, we make it right. Seasonal lights start at $800.

How Permanent Lights Work

Our permanent lights are made by Minleon. They are installed once and stay on the house year-round, so you run them from a phone app whenever you want them on. They carry a 10 year warranty and start at $2,000.

The Main Differences

• Starting price: seasonal from $800, permanent from $2,000.
• Ownership: seasonal lights are leased, and there is nothing to buy.
• Yearly work: seasonal lights are installed and taken down each year. Permanent lights stay up.
• Control: permanent lights run from a phone app.
• Use: seasonal lights are for the holidays. Permanent lights can be used all year.

Which Should You Choose?

Seasonal lights are a great fit if you want a classic holiday display with a lower starting price, or if you are not sure how long you will stay in your home. Permanent lights make more sense if you light your house every year and are ready to stop scheduling an install and takedown.

The easiest way to decide is to compare real numbers for your home, and we are happy to quote both.
