What Moves The Number
What Affects The Final Price
Linear feet of roofline
The biggest factor is how many feet we are lighting. More feet means more fixtures, track, wire, and time.
Number of stories
Two and three story homes require more ladder work, longer runs, and additional safety setup.
Controller boxes
Each system needs a controller and power supply. Larger homes or separate zones may need more than one.
Accents and add-ons
Gables, dormers, garage doors, pathways, and tree wraps add footage and programming time.
Access
Steep roofs, tight landscaping, or special mounting surfaces can add labor.
Financing Available
Spread The Cost Over Time
Projects from $500 qualify for 6 months no interest through Wisetack. Checking your options takes about a minute and does not affect your credit score.
Common Questions
Pricing Questions
Why is track lighting more expensive than trackless?
Track systems use color matched aluminum channel, custom 3D printed brackets, and more material per foot. The finished look is cleaner and the warranty is stronger, which is why the starting price and per-foot rate are higher.
Does the starting price include everything?
The starting prices of $1,000 to $2,500 cover a typical single-story home with a standard roofline and one controller. Two-story homes, extra zones, accents, or larger controllers add to the final cost.
How much does Govee cost compared to InvisiLights?
Govee is the entry-level option at roughly $10 per foot plus the controller box. InvisiClips trackless runs roughly $20 per foot, and track-mounted InvisiLights starts at $29+ per foot.
Can I get an exact quote without a site visit?
Yes. We can estimate remotely from photos of your roofline and a rough measurement. If needed, we can also come on site and show you the track and fixtures before you decide.
Are there any hidden fees?
No. Your written quote includes the lights, track or mounts, controllers, power supply, labor, and programming. We only add cost if you choose extras like additional zones or accent lighting after the quote is approved.
Is financing available?
Yes. We offer Wisetack financing on projects starting at $500, including 6 months no interest for qualified customers.
Do you offer a military discount?
Yes. We offer a military discount on permanent lighting installs. Mention it when you request your quote and we will apply it to your estimate.
