Question 1

Do you offer permanent Christmas lights installation so we can have year-round, color-changing lights without rehanging them every year?

Accepted Answer

Yes—our Atlanta outdoor lighting company offers both temporary Christmas light installations as well as permanent color-change accent lighting. We mount low-profile, color-changing LED fixtures along your property, then program them so you can dial up any hue with a remote..

Our Christmas string lights and greenery are temporary, which means we’ll store everything for you outside of the holidays. However, we also offer permanent, color-changing accent lighting that can be set to any color throughout the year.

Our design team installs low-profile LED light fixtures along your landscape and architectural lines, creating a clean look by day and a vibrant light show at night. With a handheld remote you can pick from countless colors and patters to set the scene—classic warm white for everyday curb appeal, red-white-blue for July 4th, team colors on game day, and of course red and green for Christmas.

The system is hard-wired, low-voltage, and IP-rated for rain, heat, and pollen. We hide every wire and seal every connection. Because all bulbs are energy-saving LEDs, running the lights dusk-to-dawn typically costs only a few dollars a month.

As an Atlanta outdoor lighting company with 30+ years of experience, we handle everything: free design consultation, custom programming, professional installation, and ongoing maintenance.

If you already use our Christmas light installation service, consider exploring our permanent residential accent lighting with color-change options. Just tap the remote and celebrate any occasion in seconds.

Question 2

How long can you safely leave exterior Christmas lights on each night, and do you set timers or smart controls so they turn off automatically?

Accepted Answer

You can safely keep your exterior Christmas lights glowing from dusk until dawn each night. Modern LED strands stay cool and energy-efficient, but Lights Over Atlanta always programs a weather-rated timer so your holiday display turns itself off automatically and restarts tomorrow evening.

Lights Over Atlanta designs displays that are safe enough to shine all night long. Modern UL-listed LED strings draw 80–90 % less power and emit very little heat, so there’s no technical harm if they stay on 24/7. For most metro Atlanta homes that means your roofline, trees, and wreaths glow from dusk until dawn during the holidays.

To make that effortless, every residential or commercial package from our holiday lighting installer team includes an automatic timer and remote control.

The result: you never worry about switches or wasted electricity. Your display dazzles at peak evening hours and powers down like clockwork—saving on seasonal lighting costs while extending every bulb’s life.

Question 3

If we start small the first year, can we add more holiday lighting elements over time? What other elements do you offer?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. We treat your holiday lighting as a modular, growing display. We’ll store and label your first-year lights, then easily layer on new features each season—no ladders for you. Popular add-ons include roofline and gable outlines, tree and shrub wraps, wreaths, garlands, and more.

Lights Over Atlanta designs every project with future growth in mind. Our certified designers plan power capacity, timers, and attachment points so your first-year display can expand smoothly when you’re ready to go bigger. Because we use commercial-grade LED strands and plug-and-play connectors, adding extra runs or swapping colors takes hours, not days. After the holidays we carefully remove, label, and store your lights in our warehouse; the following season we simply re-install your existing pieces and integrate any upgrades you choose.

Clients often start with a classic white roofline outline, then add layers like:

Mini-lights wrapped around trees, columns, or railings
Pre-lit wreaths and garlands for doors, windows, and gates
Ground stakes outlining walkways or driveways

Whether you own a home near Atlanta or manage a retail storefront, we handle design, installation, takedown, and off-season storage—no hassles, no tangled wires. Plus, our lifetime-warranty LEDs sip energy, so even a larger second-year display adds pennies to your bill.
