How Much Does Permanent Outdoor Lighting Cost?

Permanent Lighting Is an Investment in Curb Appeal, Safety, and Year-Round Flexibility

Permanent outdoor lighting systems give your home or business stunning architectural accenting, plus instant color control for holidays, events, or everyday beauty. These systems are professionally installed, low-profile, and built to last — but what do they cost?

At Ecotek Outdoor Lighting, we install premium RGBW permanent lighting systems starting around $30-40 per linear foot depending on the unique variables of the installation we customize to your home.

That means:

  • Design consultation

  • Custom system planning

  • Fixture track and controller installation

  • Low-voltage wiring and power setup

  • App configuration and nighttime walkthrough

Sample Project Pricing

  • 120 Linear Feet of Roofline Lighting

Estimated Range: $3,750 – $4,500

This size is ideal for lighting the front-facing rooflines of a single-story home. It gives you seasonal flexibility and everyday white accent lighting for curb appeal. It’s one of the most popular entry points for homeowners.

  • 200 Linear Feet of Roofline Lighting

Estimated Range: $6,000 – $7,200

200 feet covers most or all sides of a typical single-story home or ranch-style layout, including returns, dormers, or garage peaks. It’s great for full-house coverage and year-round accenting from any angle.

  • 300 Linear Feet of Roofline Lighting

Estimated Range: $9,000 – $10,500

This size is often used for larger homes, multi-story properties, or wraparound architectural features. It also applies to community entry monuments or small commercial buildings looking for professional visibility.

Design Tip: Every home is different. We’ll measure exact linear footage during your consultation — no guesswork.

What Affects the Cost?

A few key factors influence the total project price:

  • Linear footage of track lighting installed

  • Number of zones or controllers

  • Power access and wiring complexity

  • Custom color or trim finish (standard finishes are included)

  • Height and ladder access requirements

We don’t do cookie-cutter installs. Each system is tailored to your rooflines and electrical layout — ensuring long-term reliability and clean results.

Is It Worth the Cost?

Absolutely. A professionally installed permanent system:

  • Eliminates the need for seasonal setup and teardown

  • Offers instant access to holiday colors and scenes

  • Adds architectural beauty every night of the year

  • Increases home value and curb appeal

  • Lasts for years with virtually no maintenance
