A track of color-changing LEDs mounted under the eave and controlled from your phone, so the house can wear holiday colors in December and a soft warm white as accent lighting for the rest of the year.
Permanent holiday lighting is a low-profile aluminum track mounted to the underside of the eave, with individually addressable LED nodes set every 9 to 12 inches. The track is painted to match your fascia or soffit, so during the day it reads as a trim line and at night every node can be any color. From the app on your phone you pick red and green for December, maroon and silver for a home game, orange for October, or a plain warm white that makes the house look finished on any ordinary evening. Schedules run on their own with sunset triggers, so you never climb a ladder again and never store a strand.
The reason to have a construction company install a permanent system is that it lives on your house for a decade or more. The track has to be fastened into solid fascia or soffit framing rather than thin aluminum wrap, and every penetration through the exterior has to be sealed the way a carpenter seals one. Low-voltage wiring runs through the soffit to a controller near a GFCI-protected outlet. Our crews at Constructive Brothers frame and trim eaves for a living, so they know what is behind the fascia before drilling into it. We match the system to your roof and eave design, and every install comes with the same 48-Hour Repair Promise as our seasonal displays.
Permanent systems on Missoula homes generally run $4,000 to $9,000 installed, priced by total roofline footage and the complexity of the eave, with no annual install or takedown cost afterward.

Fascia and the rafter tails behind it are things our crew builds on new homes. They fasten the track into solid wood rather than hollow trim and seal every hole, which is the difference between a system that lasts a decade and one that sags after two winters.
The track is color-matched to your fascia and tucked under the eave, so from the street it disappears against the trim. Neighbors in HOA neighborhoods like Miller Creek notice the lights at night and nothing at all during the day, which keeps architectural committees happy.
Seasonal lights spend eleven months in a box. A permanent system gives you a warm white wash on the house every evening of the year and a full holiday display in December with one tap in the app, and game-day or Fourth of July colors are a tap away.
The LED nodes are sealed against moisture and rated for temperatures well below zero, and the low-voltage system draws only a few amps at full brightness. The controller sits in a weatherproof enclosure near your GFCI outlet, and our 48-Hour Repair Promise covers any node or controller fault.
We inspect the fascia and soffit to confirm what the track will fasten into, then measure every run. You get a fixed written quote that covers the track, nodes, controller, wiring and app setup.
Track is ordered or painted to match your fascia color so it disappears in daylight. We also confirm the node spacing, usually 9 or 12 inches, based on the length of your roofline and how bright you want the display.
The crew fastens the track into solid framing and routes low-voltage wire through the soffit to the controller, sealing every penetration as they go. Most homes are finished in one or two days with no roof walking for a standard eave.
Before we leave, we connect the controller to your Wi-Fi and set up a sunset schedule with a few starting scenes. You will know how to change colors and timers on your own before the truck pulls out.
