Start with what it is
The short version: LEDs installed into the architecture, up all year, run from an app. Where temporary strands go up and come down, this stays. The LEDs sit inside a channel that gets color matched to the trim, so the daytime look of the house does not change much.
Where it gets installed on a property
The main roofline is the anchor, and gables, dormers and porch edges get added where they help. On a commercial building the same idea covers storefronts and facades, entries, patios and building corners. A design should follow the lines the building already has, instead of inventing new ones.
Control, in plain terms
The system is app controlled. Choose a color, save a scene, give it a schedule, and it runs itself. Most homeowners land on one warm white they like and use it most nights, and only change it for holidays, birthdays and game days. It is one system doing several jobs, which is the real case for it.
Two different briefs
Residential work is about how the house

For a business, the point is being seen from the road and looking open after dark. Company colors on a facade are a different kind of signal than a sign, and they change on a schedule.
What to ask before you sign
Find out whose crew shows up. Ask for a design of your own building before you talk about price. Ask about support after the install while you still have room to negotiate. Those three answers tell you most of what you need more reliably than the price does.
Where permanent outdoor lighting does not fit
Not every house should get this, and an honest company will say it out loud. Short term ownership weakens the case. If the thing bothering you is the walk to the front door, the fix is at ground level, not on the roof. And if you only decorate every few years, seasonal lights are the better answer. The point of the free consultation is partly to find that out.Because it never comes down, how it is fastened matters as much as what it does. Ask how the track attaches and where the wire runs, since none of that is visible once the crew leaves. A clean install stays clean. A rushed one announces itself in daylight, which is the opposite of the point.
Who tends to be happy with it
The people who like it most tend to be homeowners done with the December ladder, or people who wanted the front of the house lit at night regardless.
