Permanent Roofline & Eave Lighting
Roofline lighting that's always up, always ready.
Discreet, year-round lighting tracked under your eaves — up all the time, never a ladder again.
Overview
Permanent Roofline & Eave Lighting
Permanent roofline lighting mounts a low-profile channel of individually addressable LEDs under your eaves and rooflines. It disappears in daylight and lights up on command at night — warm white for everyday curb appeal, full color for holidays and game days — all from an app, with no ladders, no tangled strands, and no takedown.
What's included
- Low-profile channel tucked under the eave — invisible by day
- Individually addressable, full-color LEDs
- Warm-white everyday mode plus holiday scenes
- Controlled from your phone on any schedule
- 5-year parts warranty through Gemstone Lights
What permanent roofline lighting actually is
Permanent roofline lighting is a slim aluminum track we mount under your eaves and along your rooflines, with individually addressable LEDs seated inside it. During the day the channel reads as a clean trim line that blends into your fascia, so nobody driving by sees a string of bulbs. At night it becomes whatever you want it to be — a soft warm-white outline of your architecture, team colors for a Friday night game, or a full holiday scene.
Because the diodes are addressable, every point of light can be its own color and brightness. That is what separates this from the old bulb strings: you get crisp, even lines, real color range, and effects that actually look designed rather than draped.
Why it makes sense on a Central Texas home
Our summers are long and our roofs get hot, and the last thing any homeowner should be doing in July or December is dragging a ladder around the eaves. A permanent system takes that off your plate for good. It goes up once, professionally, and it is ready every night of the year after that.
Around Hays County we see a lot of two-story homes and steep gables where DIY light-hanging is genuinely dangerous. Installing the channel once, correctly flashed and secured, means you never take that risk again — and the warm-white everyday setting quietly lifts your curb appeal in an HOA neighborhood where the house needs to look cared for year-round.
How we design and install it
We start with a free in-home consultation, measure your rooflines, and map exactly where the channel should run to catch your home's best lines. We match the track color to your fascia, conceal the wiring and the transformer, and set the controller up on your Wi-Fi before we leave.
The install itself is clean and quick for most homes, and we walk you through the app so you can build your own scenes and schedules. Everything we mount is weather-rated for Texas sun, wind, and the occasional hard freeze.
What to expect afterward
From the first night you will have warm architectural light on a schedule, plus a library of color scenes a tap away. The system carries a 5-year parts warranty through Gemstone Lights, and our labor is backed for a year, so if anything needs attention we are minutes away in Buda.
Most homeowners tell us the everyday warm-white mode is what they end up loving most — the holiday color is fun, but the nightly curb appeal is what they notice every time they pull into the driveway.

Common questions
Permanent Roofline & Eave Lighting FAQs
Will the track be visible during the day?
It is designed to disappear. We tuck the low-profile channel up under the eave and match it to your fascia color, so from the street it reads as a trim line rather than a row of bulbs. Most people do not realize the lights are there until they see them on at night.
Can I really control the colors and schedule myself?
Yes. Every system we install is app-controlled from day one, so you set scenes, colors, brightness, and schedules right from your phone. We connect it to your Wi-Fi and walk you through it before we leave, and you can change it as often as you like.
How long do the LEDs last, and what happens if one fails?
Quality LEDs are rated for many years of nightly use, and the permanent lighting carries a 5-year parts warranty through Gemstone Lights plus our own 1-year labor warranty. Because we are based right here in Buda, service calls in Hays County and the surrounding area are quick.
What does the cost depend on?
Price is driven mainly by the total linear footage of roofline we are lighting, the height and complexity of your rooflines, and how much of the home you want covered. We give you a detailed written estimate after the consultation so there are no surprises.
Is it just for Christmas?
Not at all. The holiday scenes are a bonus, but the real value is the other eleven months — a warm, tasteful architectural outline every night for curb appeal and safety. You get both from the same system without ever hanging or taking down a strand.
