Permanent Lighting Buyer Guides
What each permanent lighting brand actually publishes about price and warranty, what their quotes leave out, and how to compare three bids on the same terms. We are not a dealer for any of them.

Permanent Christmas Light Brands, Compared on Price and Warranty
Installed prices for the four national permanent lighting brands cluster between $18 and $35 per linear foot, which on a typical street-facing roofline works out to roughly $2,000 to $6,000. The spread inside that range says less about the diodes than about who is holding the ladder. The more useful separator is disclosure: Trimlight and JellyFish publish a price range on their own websites, EverLights publishes flat prices for its DIY kits, and Gemstone Lights publishes no number at all.
By brand
One guide per system
JellyFish Lighting
JellyFish publishes $25-$35 per linear foot and a $3,000-$6,000 typical project. Here is what that covers, what the controller adds, and where it moves.
Read the guide →Trimlight
Trimlight publishes $18-$35 per linear foot installed. The lifetime warranty is real, and so are the two conditions most buyers never hear about.
Read the guide →Gemstone Lights
Gemstone's own FAQ gives no dollar figure. Here is what authorized dealers publish, why the number is withheld, and how to budget without it.
Read the guide →EverLights
EverLights publishes flat DIY prices from $750 for 100 feet of classic white to $2,700 for 200 feet color-changing. Installed pricing is quoted, not published.
