Every quote we give has two components, and we never merge them into one figure.
- Materials — paid once, in your first season. Commercial-grade lights, cut and clipped to your house. They become yours the day they go up, and you never pay for them again.
- Labour — paid every season. Design, install, service through December, takedown, cleaning, and storage until next autumn.
Which is why the estimator shows you this year and every year after as separate numbers. The second one is the one you will live with.
