Permanent Light Installation: What Actually Happens on Install Day|What Goes Into a Permanent Lighting Installation

Step one is a free consultation

Nothing gets mounted until the design is settled. That visit covers the roofline, the gables, the porch and anything else worth lighting. There is no charge for it, and you are not signing anything to have it.

Custom design, not a template

Your house is not the same shape as the one down the street, so the plan gets drawn for it. A good design follows the architecture that is already there: the main roofline, the gables, https://evercrestlighting.com/about/ the dormers, the porch. Businesses get the same treatment across storefronts, entries and building corners.

The install itself

Installation is professional, which is a plain way of saying nobody in your family goes up a ladder. The channel goes up along the planned lines and matches the trim. Power, control box and phone setup are handled as part of the install, not left for you to figure out. Before the crew leaves, you get shown how to run it, so the first night is not a guessing game.

Commercial work

A commercial job follows the same order: consultation, design, install. What changes is the scheduling. Most businesses would rather the crew work outside of open hours, so the work gets timed around business hours.

Getting the most out of the first visit

Nothing is required, but the visit goes further if you have thought about a couple of things. Think about where you want light, not just where you want color. Decide whether the main job is holidays or ordinary evenings, and say so out loud. And walk the property once at night before the visit, because dark spots are obvious then and invisible at two in the afternoon.

Living with the system after install day

Most people play with it for a week. After the novelty, a pattern forms. The everyday setting ends up plain, and it runs on a timer without anybody touching it.Set the schedule in the first few days. Lighting that needs a decision every evening does not get used as much.Homeowners are not needed for most of it. Clear access around the house helps: an unlocked gate, a clear driveway, pets in the house. Otherwise the day belongs to the installers.

After the install

From there it is a phone app and a house that lights up. Most people land on one white they like for ordinary nights, then change it when there is a reason to.
