What makes these different
Permanent holiday lights stay on the house. That single sentence covers most of why people want them. The hardware is a low profile LED channel installed along your roofline, matched to the color of your trim so daylight hides it.
Not just the one week in December
Most people start with Christmas. What they use it for after that is broader. Orange for Halloween. Red and blue for the Fourth. Team colors on game day. Pink for a birthday. A single color for whatever the week calls for. And on the three hundred ordinary nights in between, most people run a plain warm

What the install looks like
The first step is a visit and a conversation. A design gets drawn for your roofline, based on what the building already gives you to work with. The crew handles installation, so the ladder work is theirs. After that, the system is yours and it runs from your phone.
The daytime question
The fair objection to permanent holiday lighting is the other eleven months. Because it is color matched and sits flush, you generally have to know it is there.
Who tends to buy them
The people who get the most out of it do it every year without fail. Anyone who would rather not be on a ladder in December is the natural buyer. And it fits people who wanted the house lit at night anyway, holidays or not.
When to start
Everything has to be finished before the night you want it running. That sounds obvious until you are three weeks out. A consultation, a design drawn for the house, and a day on the schedule all take place on a calendar, and the order does not compress.The upside is that you only do this once. Next year there is no ladder, no dead section, and no scheduling anything.What catches most people off guard is how rarely they open the app after a while. You program the season once and it runs. The lights come on at dusk and go off when you told them to, in whatever colors you picked, without anybody remembering to do anything.
If you still want the classic look
Not everyone wants a permanent system, and that is a reasonable position. They also do traditional holiday light installation, and they store it for you between seasons. Either way, the free consultation is the place to start. EverCrest Lighting can be reached at (864) 252-1732 or
