Four evenings.
One to design it, one to install it, one to hand it over — and every evening after that, the part you actually paid for. Here is what each of them involves, in order, with nothing skipped.
Nothing about this should be a surprise.
Permanent lighting is a one-time job on a house you live in, so the process matters as much as the hardware. Every stage below has a deliverable you can hold us to.
- 01Evening one
A designer walks your house
Someone comes out at the hour the lighting will actually be seen — near dusk, when your rooflines read the way they will every night afterward. They measure the runs, look at where the eaves break, find the gables worth showing off and the ones better left dark, and check where the controller can sit near your panel.
You get a plan drawn to your specific architecture, and a firm number. Both free, and neither obligates you to anything.
- 02Evening two
Install day
Our own crew arrives — every installer Bosso-certified, and we don't hand your house to a subcontractor. The channel is fastened up under the drip edge, every wire runs hidden inside it, and the controller mounts near your electrical panel. Nothing is screwed through your fascia where it shouldn't be, and the yard is left the way it was found.
Most homes are finished in a single day. Larger or more broken rooflines occasionally run into a second.
- 03Evening three
First light, and the handoff
We connect the app on your phone while we're still standing there, build your first few scenes with you — everyday warm white, something for the season, whatever your team's colors are — and set the schedule that will run itself all year. Then we make you drive it, because a system you can't operate isn't finished.
You leave the walkthrough able to change your whole roofline from the couch.
- 04Every evening after
You mostly forget it exists
This is the part people don't expect. Once the schedule is set to follow sunset, the lights simply happen. Most homeowners only open the app when there's a holiday, a game, or a party — and the rest of the year the house just looks better after dark than it did before.
No ladder in November. No tangled box in the garage. No January takedown, ever again.
One number covers all of it.
The design
The dusk walk, the plan drawn to your architecture, and the quote. Free, and yours whether or not you hire us.
The hardware
ARGBW track color-matched from sixteen finishes, the lights, the controller, and every fastener.
The labor
Our own Bosso-certified crew, start to finish. No subcontractors sent in our name.
The app setup
Connected to your phone, first scenes built, schedule running before we leave.
The warranty
Five years on parts, one year on labor, backed locally.
The cleanup
Wire hidden inside the channel, nothing left in the yard.
Your quote is your price. If you want the hardware detail behind it — diode type, lumens, zones, rated life — that lives on the permanent lighting page.
The questions that come up on the driveway.
- Do I need to be home?
- For the design walk, yes — it's your house and your opinion that matters. On install day, no. Plenty of homeowners come home to a finished roofline. We do want you there for the walkthrough at the end.
- Will it damage my roof or fascia?
- The channel fastens under the drip edge, which is what it's designed to attach to. No holes through the face of your house, no adhesive on your shingles, and every component in the system is UL-rated and independently tested.
- What if a light fails in year three?
- Five years on parts, one year on labor — and because we install with our own crew, the company you call is the company that was on your roof. We're local. That's the entire point of not subcontracting.
- What about my electric bill?
- Each light draws 0.96 watts. A typical home runs about 250 of them, which means the whole lit roofline uses roughly what five ordinary bulbs do.
- Can the neighbors' side be turned off?
- Yes. The house splits into as many as eight zones, and individual lights can be switched off entirely — so a fixture pointing at someone's bedroom window simply never comes on.
- How far ahead should I book?
- For everyday use, whenever suits you. If you want it lit for the holidays, book by early October — the calendar between Halloween and Thanksgiving fills first every year.
More of them, answered at length, on the FAQ — including what a system costs and how visible the track really is in daylight.
Start with the design walk.
It costs nothing, it takes about an hour, and it ends with a plan drawn for your house and a number you can decide against. No one gets on a ladder until you say so.
