Holiday Decorating questions, answered by experts

Good news, Christmas lovers: you can keep your lights up all year, provided you choose the type. It's critical that you choose holiday lights made for outdoor use, as these can withstand winter weather conditions. In addition, it's best to use LED lights instead of incandescent ones. LED bulbs can withstand temperature shifts and are energy efficient. 

If you are considering leaving your holiday lights up year-round, ask your lighting installer about permanent installation. This project costs around $3,500 but gives you about six to 10 years of LED lights and adds a pleasing aesthetic to your home.

On average, holiday decoration services cost around $800, but prices can range from around $300 to to $2,500 or more, depending on the extent of the work and home size. Simple interior holiday decoration can cost closer to $300 while hiring a decorating pro to hang exterior lights and exterior decorations alongside the interior work will total around $800. For large decorations or extensive design and decoration services, you can expect to pay $2,500. Note that these prices only include labor, not the decorations.

The simplest way to put Christmas lights on any metal surface is by using a magnetic hook or clip. You can also purchase magnetic lights, which should easily stick to any magnetic surface. Keep in mind that not all metals are magnetic. In that case, you’ll need to use a different clip.

The cost of professional Christmas light installation is $430 on average, but it can range from $100 for basic projectors to $1,200 or more for an extensive holiday light installation. The overall price also depends on the size of your home and any other location where you’ll be adding lighting. For instance, a small, one-story home typically costs between $250 and $600 for light installation, but a 4,000-foot multi-story home costs significantly more, ranging from $500 to $1,800.

The cost to have your house decorated for Christmas depends on the extent of your holiday vision. Interior decorators charge between $50 and $150 per hour on average, so if your decorations are minimal, you could pay as little as $200 for a couple of hours of decorating. Interior decorators might also bill $5 to $12 per square foot, or a flat rate of $500 to $1,300 per room. You can also pay to have your Christmas tree professionally decorated for an average of $200 to $600. Contact a local interior decorator for a specific quote.
