Permanent Holiday Lighting in Austin, TX
Stop hiring seasonal installers. Stop climbing ladders. Stop untangling broken strands every November. TruLight's permanent lighting system handles every holiday from a single app. One installation, unlimited holidays, zero hassle.
Why Permanent Beats Seasonal
Temporary holiday lights cost you money, time, and risk every single year. A permanent system pays for itself and keeps your home decorated for every occasion with zero effort.
Every Holiday, One System
Christmas, Halloween, Fourth of July, Valentine's Day, Easter, St. Patrick's Day, game day, birthday parties. One tap in the app switches between them all.
Save $5K-$12K Over 10 Years
Seasonal installers charge $500 to $1,200 per year just for Christmas lights. Add in replacement strands, clips, and your own time, and you are looking at $5,000 to $12,000 over a decade. TruLight pays for itself.
Instant On, Instant Off
No setup time. No takedown time. Open the TruLight app, pick a holiday theme, and your home is decorated in seconds. Schedule it to turn on at sunset and off at midnight automatically.
Thousands of Patterns
Beyond solid colors, the TruLight app includes thousands of animated patterns. Chasing lights, twinkle effects, color fades, and custom sequences you build yourself.
Schedule and Automate
Set your lights to change automatically for every holiday on the calendar. The app handles the timing so you never forget to switch themes or turn the lights on.
How It Works
One-Time Installation

Automate the Calendar
Schedule each holiday in advance. The lights switch themes automatically so you never miss a holiday and never lift a finger.
One System, Every Holiday
One Holiday System for Austin Homes
Austin has a full calendar of reasons to use outdoor color. Christmas may be the largest roofline season, but permanent lighting can also support Halloween, Independence Day, game days, birthdays, graduations, and neighborhood events. Homeowners can save team and festival-inspired combinations in the app.
Permanent holiday lighting changes the workflow. The track and RGBW lights remain installed, while the app controls the date, time, brightness, zones, and pattern. Dedicated warm white keeps the system useful for ordinary evenings, then RGB color changes the same roofline for the next event. There is no need to store or reinstall the permanent part of the display.
Software zones make the scenes more flexible. A homeowner can keep the entry warm white while upper peaks run color, separate a garage from the main elevation, or use a subtle two-color outline instead of lighting the entire roofline. Saved scenes make those choices repeatable without rebuilding the design.

Frequently Asked Questions
In the Austin area, professional holiday light installation typically runs $500 to $1,200 per season depending on home size and complexity. That covers installation, takedown, and sometimes bulb replacements. Over 10 years, that adds up to $5,000 to $12,000, and you still end up with faded bulbs and broken clips every few years. A permanent system eliminates that recurring cost entirely.

That depends on the setting you choose. For Christmas, the dedicated warm white LEDs produce a glow that matches classic incandescent holiday lights. You can also run vivid reds, greens, blues, and multicolor patterns that look like traditional strand lights but with more brightness and consistency.
