Christmas light installation pricing questions
How do I price Christmas light installation?
Linear feet of roofline times your rate per foot, a multiplier for taller homes, trees and bushes priced per piece, and takedown as its own line. A minimum keeps small houses worth the crew.
Should takedown be included in the price?
Show it as its own line even if you always include it. Customers see what they are paying for, and you never forget to charge for the January trip.
When should I send a holiday lighting quote?
As soon as the request comes in. Install dates fill up, and a customer comparing companies can only book the ones that have sent a price.
