Why Avid

One Focus. Done Properly.

Most exterior companies add permanent lighting as a side offering. For Avid, it’s the only thing we do. We’ve created a whole lighting platform that allows us to address the wants and needs of our customers.

Lighting specialists

Permanent lighting is the whole business, so the process is the same from one house to the next. That is what keeps the work clean and the dates reliable.

Our own app and platform

From the software running on the controller to the app running on your phone plus everything in between. We aren’t giving you a third-party platform. This allows us to install it, run it, and support it.

Exact written pricing

We measure on site and give you the real number before you commit. No day-of surprises, no "signs-today-only" discount theater.

We answer service calls

We keep records of every install, including your lighting run and controller setup. If something fails, you call us and we show up.

Common Questions

Before You Call Us

What areas do you serve?
Permanent lighting is available in 11 markets: St. George, Las Vegas, Salt Lake City, Reno, Cleveland, Columbus, Nashville, Orlando, Tampa, Jacksonville, and Charlottesville.
What is permanent lighting, exactly?
It is a track of individually addressable commercial-grade LED fixtures seated inside a low-profile channel that mounts flush to your fascia or roofline. The channel is color-matched to your trim. With millions of color options, you can go from a simple subtle warm white accent lighting scene to a full animated holiday display.
Will the lights damage my roof?
No. Fixtures mount to the fascia board, not through the roofing material, so your roof warranty is untouched. The channel is fastened mechanically rather than glued, and the installation is non-destructive. If the system were ever removed, you would be left with small fastener holes in the fascia and nothing more.
How do I control the lights?
The lights are controlled through our Avid Lighting app for iOS and Android. It is our own lighting platform, not a third-party app we resell, so the app, the controllers on your house, and the support behind them all come from us. It handles color, brightness, more than 600 preset scenes, zones, music sync, and schedules that follow sunset at your address. Additionally, the app includes all the controls you need to create whatever custom look you’re going for.
How much does it cost?
Permanent lighting is priced by the linear footage of roofline we are covering. Because each home is different, pricing is quoted on site after measuring and surveying the home. For more information on how pricing works, visit our pricing page so you know what factors in to the price we give you.
How long does installation take?
Most permanent lighting installs are finished in a single day. Larger homes, steep multi-gable rooflines, and detached garages can add a second day or even a third day, and we tell you that at the estimate.
