Permanent Christmas Lights in Houston

Every quote is custom and free, and footage and zones drive most of it. Three choices keep it lean: light the front elevation first and add sides later, create zones only for elevations you will program differently, and place the controller near an existing outlet. Our permanent lights cost guide lists typical industry ranges.

Barely. From the street the track reads as part of the trim line. From the front walk you can see a slim channel in your trim color, but not the bulbs, which sit recessed inside it until they light at dusk.

Yes. Save a handful of scenes and schedule them by date, so Halloween colors start October 1 and Christmas takes over the Friday after Thanksgiving without anyone opening the app. A one-off scene for a birthday or a watch party runs for that night, and the schedule picks back up the next evening.

From an app on your phone. You can pick from millions of colors, run animated patterns such as chases or twinkles, set sunset-based schedules and save favorite scenes for each holiday. Zones let you light the front elevation alone or run a different look on the garage. We set up the app, your first scenes and the schedule at install and show everyone in the house how to use it.

They are designed to stay up year-round, so nothing comes down for summer or storm season. The pixels sit recessed inside the track, out of direct sun and spray, and the controller plugs in at a covered outlet or in the garage. After a major storm, look along the eave for anything a branch knocked loose and call us if a zone will not light. Service terms for your system are spelled out in your written quote.

Possibly. Seasonal lights clip on and come off, but a permanent track is fastened to the fascia, so architectural committees may treat it as an exterior modification. Ask before you book, since approval can take a meeting cycle. Most applications want the track color, mounting location and a layout photo, which we provide.

If you would light the house for more than one holiday, or you want to stop booking an install and takedown every fall, it often is. Seasonal service still makes sense for wrapped trees, garland and a single December look, and some homes combine both. Our comparison guide walks through the trade-offs in looks, approvals, upkeep and cost.
