Christmas light quotes in Houston can range from a couple hundred dollars to several thousand, and most of that spread comes down to what's included. Here's how pricing works so you can compare quotes apples to apples.
The short answer
HomeGuide lists Houston Christmas light installation at roughly $2.50 to $5 per linear foot. Those rates often cover installation labor only. Full-service packages that include the lights, clips, repairs during the season, January takedown and storage usually run higher per foot, and many Houston full-service companies quote $1,500 to $3,500 for an average home.

Example prices
- One-story home, 120 ft of roofline: 120 × $8 = $960
- Two-story home, 150 ft of roofline: 150 × $10 = $1,500
- Small one-story front, 60 ft: 60 × $8 = $480, so the $599 minimum applies
What to ask before you book
- Are the lights included, or do I buy them?
- Do you use clips, or nails and staples? (Clips only. Never nails.)
- If a strand goes out, is a service call included?
- Is January takedown included, and do you store the lights?
- Are you insured for ladder and roof work?
When to book
Installs in the Houston area run from early November through mid-December, and calendars fill fast after Thanksgiving. Booking in October gets you the best install dates. See Mission Lights packages and get your quote.
