If you’re considering permanent roofline lighting in Nashville, one of the first questions you likely have is: how much does it cost?
At LightTN, we understand the value of transparency. That’s why we’re breaking down what goes into the cost of permanent LED lighting, what you can expect to spend, and how this smart investment pays off over time.
What’s the Average Cost in Nashville?
Most homeowners in the Nashville area spend between $3,400 and $5,800 for a professionally installed permanent roofline lighting system.
But your specific cost will depend on several factors.
Key Factors That Influence Cost
1. Linear Footage of Roofline
More footage = more lights and materials. During your free consultation, we’ll measure your entire perimeter for an accurate quote.
2. Smart System Features
Advanced apps, multi-zone controls, and home automation integrations may increase your price slightly, but add huge long-term value.
3. Installation Complexity
Steep roofs or multi-story homes may increase labor time. That’s why we offer custom designs for every property.
4. Electrical Setup
Need additional outlets or transformers? We’ll take care of the planning and placement with minimal visual impact.
5. Lighting Add-ons
Considering lighting beyond your roofline? Many homeowners pair their system with landscape lighting for full property visibility and security.
