"Ciaran did an amazing job! The lights look professional. The install was neat and clean and totally unobtrusive. Looks fantastic, matches our exterior paint and adds security and festivity to our home exterior. Totally recommend!!"
"I love my permanent holiday lights. The gentleman, Ciaran, that installed them was very good. He arrived aprox 9:am and worked until he had completely finished @ 10:pm. Everyone there was very easy to work with. Eli ordered them online via videos & photos. I would recommend them to anyone interested in having permanent lighting put in. Photos are of ‘Unicorn Fart, Autumn leaves, & Waving Flag, for veteran’s day. "
"Excellent! From start to finish Ciaran and team were awesome to work with! Install was clean, on time and very efficient. Communication is stellar. I’d highly reccomend!"
"Ciaran installed our lights yesterday. He did an excellent job. They blend seamlessly into the soffits. He explained how to use the app to control them. We have had a great experience working with him and would recommend."
"Our installer was great. He did great work. However, out lights are dim. Our neighbors have lights installed by Halo, and their lights are much more vibrant and bright. Nothing against the company or installer, but the lights just don't compare to others in our neighborhood."
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the average cost of permanent lighting in Lincoln?
Pricing is customized after a free on-site or virtual consultation.
We provide tailored quotes because every home and business is different. For permanent outdoor lighting in Lincoln, we measure, design, and explain options before we estimate.
There are no one-size packages on our site. Instead, a designer reviews your architecture, goals, and timeline, then builds a clear proposal.
We don’t sell online; payments happen in person or by invoice after installation milestones. This lets us confirm the scope and answer questions before work begins.
If you’re comparing ideas, we’re glad to discuss ranges during your consult and suggest ways to phase projects to fit your budget. We also offer flexible options and free estimates to help you move forward with confidence. We’ll explain timing, which is typically booked out about 10 weeks, and we’re aiming to beat it.
Does permanent lighting add value to a home?
It enhances curb appeal and everyday usability; ask your agent about appraised value.
Permanent lighting brings beauty, safety, and seasonal flexibility without visible clutter. Homeowners choose it to elevate architecture and simplify holidays.
Because goals vary, we focus on design that complements your home first, then show how automation supports daily routines.
While many buyers appreciate modern lighting and low upkeep, valuation depends on market factors. We do not offer appraisals.
During your quote, we can suggest tasteful everyday scenes that highlight features like walkways, entries, and rooflines for consistent curb appeal. For commercial sites, we’ll align colors and timing with branding and hours to attract attention without overwhelming the space.
How long does it last?
Components are rated for up to 50,000 hours with industry-strong warranty coverage.
Our systems use durable LEDs and materials designed for longevity. A 20-year warranty on materials and workmanship covers many installations.
Actual lifespan depends on use and conditions, but LEDs are engineered for long service with minimal upkeep. We’ll walk you through the care process during the final walkthrough.
We keep replacement parts on hand and provide support if anything needs attention down the road. You’ll always know who to call. If you ever expand, we can design additions that match your existing layout.
If technology evolves, presets and controls can be updated without redoing your whole layout, keeping your system current.
How does it handle local weather?
The system is fully weatherproof and made for year-round outdoor use.

The design remains discreet during the day—no tangles or seasonal storage to worry about. That means less hassle and more time to enjoy.

After installation, we provide training on the app, presets, and schedules. Ongoing support is always available if you want to tweak scenes or add areas later.
If your project has special conditions, we’ll coordinate timing and access so the process stays smooth and predictable from start to finish. You’ll receive a final walkthrough with app training and a clear point of contact for future support.
Can I customize the colors and patterns?
Absolutely. Save presets, schedule scenes, and choose millions of colors.
Our app lets you dial in everyday whites, seasonal colorways, or event-specific scenes. You can keep it subtle all year and go bold for celebrations.
Scenes can repeat on calendars, so holidays and game days are ready without extra setup. Brightness and timing are easy to edit anytime.
If you like experimenting, we’ll show you how to build and save new looks in minutes during your walkthrough.
