What Permanent Holiday Lights Actually Are

Permanent holiday lights are professional-grade LED systems mounted into the soffit, eaves, or roofline of your home and left there year-round. Each individual LED is programmable — meaning you can change the color, pattern, brightness, and timing from an app on your phone. The hardware disappears into the architecture during the day and lights up however you want it at night. We design and install these systems for homes throughout Macomb and Oakland County. Once it's installed, you'll never hang another strand of Christmas lights again.

Why Permanent Lights Pay for Themselves

Most homeowners spend somewhere between $400 and $1,500 per year on professional Christmas light installation. Add a few years of that and the math starts to flip. Permanent holiday lights are a one-time install with no annual fees, no takedown headaches, no storage problems, and no booking your install date in October before the calendar fills up. Beyond the cost — they're not just for Christmas. Halloween orange and purple. Red, white, and blue for the Fourth. Pink for breast cancer awareness month. Birthday colors when your kid turns six. Game-day red and silver when the Lions are playing. The system you install once gets used dozens of times a year. Most customers tell us the only thing they wish they'd done differently is install them sooner.

Types of Permanent Holiday Lighting We Install

Permanent lighting isn't one-size-fits-all. The right system depends on your home's architecture, your roofline, and what you want to do with the lighting. Here's how we typically design these installs.

Eaves & Soffit Installation

The most common setup — LEDs mounted along the underside of the eaves and into the soffit channel. This gives you a clean roofline outline at night and zero visibility during the day. Works for almost every home with standard soffit construction.

Peaks & Gables

The most common setup — LEDs mounted along the underside of the eaves and into the soffit channel. This gives you a clean roofline outline at night and zero visibility during the day. Works for almost every home with standard soffit construction.

Column & Architectural Lighting

Front porches, columns, pillars, and architectural features can be wired into the same programmable system. This lets you light up the entry of your home with the same color schedule as the roofline — useful for accent lighting year-round, not just on holidays.

Multi-Holiday Color Programs

The system supports millions of color combinations and dozens of pre-loaded scenes — Christmas reds and greens, Halloween orange and purple, Fourth of July red-white-and-blue, Easter pastels, St. Patrick's green, Valentine's pinks. You can also build custom scenes, schedule them automatically, and switch between them with one tap.

App Control & Automation

Everything is controlled through a phone app. You can turn the lights on and off, change colors, set a schedule (sunset to 11 PM, for example), build custom programs, or just pick a holiday preset and walk away. Most customers set it once for the season and forget about it.

New Construction vs. Existing Homes

Permanent lights work on both — but the install looks slightly different. New construction is the easiest scenario because we can plan the channels into the soffit during the build. Existing homes work just as well; we route the channels along the underside of the eaves and conceal the wiring along the roofline. Either way, the system disappears during the day.

What's Included with Permanent Holiday Lights

Every install includes everything you need to get the system up, programmed, and running — no separate fees, no hidden costs.

  • Custom design — every roofline mapped specifically to your home, including peaks, gables, and columns

  • Professional-grade LEDs — outdoor-rated, weatherproof, designed for year-round Michigan exposure

  • Concealed channel installation — mounted into eaves and soffits so the hardware disappears during daylight

  • App setup & training — we configure the app on your phone and walk you through how to use it before we leave

  • Pre-loaded holiday scenes — Christmas, Halloween, Fourth of July, Easter, Valentine's Day, and more, ready to go

  • Manufacturer warranty — covered for hardware failures and defects per the manufacturer's terms

  • Fully insured installation — liability and worker's comp coverage on every job

How It Works

1. Free Quote
Call or text us at (586) 960-5361 with your address. We'll either pull up your home online or come out to take a look in person. Most quotes turn around same-day or next-day, and there's no obligation.
2. Custom Design
Once you're in, we design a layout for your specific home — rooflines, peaks, tree wraps, landscape accents, wreaths, garlands, whatever works. You pick the color story (warm white, classic multi-color, custom mix) and we plan the install around your home's architecture.
3. Professional Installation
Most installs take one to two days depending on the size of your home and the complexity of the layout. We handle all the wiring, mounting, and weatherproofing. The hardware mounts into the soffit and eaves so it disappears during the day.
4. App Setup & Walkthrough
Before we leave, we install the app on your phone, pair it with the system, walk you through the controls, set up a default schedule, and load the holiday scenes you'll use most. You'll know how to use it before we drive away.

Frequently Asked Questions...

Can I see the lights during the day?

No, that's the whole point. The LEDs are mounted into a low-profile channel that tucks into your soffit or under the eaves. From the curb during the day, you don't see the system at all — it just looks like your roofline. At night when they're on, the lights themselves are what you see, not the hardware.

Do they actually hold up through Michigan winters?

Yes. The systems we install use commercial-grade outdoor LEDs and weatherproof housing rated for full year-round exposure — sun, snow, ice, freeze-thaw cycles, all of it. They're designed specifically for permanent outdoor installation, not adapted from indoor strands.

Can I program them myself or do I need to call you every time?

You program them yourself. The app handles everything — colors, scenes, schedules, brightness, custom programs. We set it up and walk you through it during install, but day-to-day you control everything from your phone. We're around if you ever want help with a custom program or have a question.

What holidays do they work for?

Whatever you want. The pre-loaded scenes cover Christmas, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Fourth of July, Easter, Valentine's Day, St. Patrick's Day, New Year's, and more. You can also build your own — birthday colors, team colors for game day, awareness month colors, or anything you can imagine. The system supports millions of color combinations.

How long do they last?

The LEDs themselves are rated for 50,000+ hours of use, which works out to decades of normal seasonal use. The system comes with a manufacturer warranty covering hardware failures and defects. Realistically, the system outlasts most homeowners' need for it.

Will permanent lights replace my Christmas light install?

For most customers, yes — that's exactly why they get them. Once permanent lights are installed, you don't need to book a separate Christmas light install every year. Some customers still hire us to add tree wraps, wreaths, or full-property displays on top of the permanent lights for a more elaborate Christmas setup, but the basic roofline coverage is handled.
