Why Permanent Christmas Lights Beat Temporary Lights Every Time
Temporary clip-on Christmas lights have a predictable lifespan: you buy them, hang them, take them down, store them in a bin, and find half of them broken next November. The average Ontario homeowner spends 3-5 hours each year on installation and another 2-3 hours on removal. Over a decade, that is 50-80 hours of your time, plus the ongoing cost of replacing strings that burn out or get damaged in storage. As one homeowner shared on a local blog, the frustration of dealing with broken strands year after year makes permanent lighting solutions seem increasingly worthwhile.

OUR PROCESS

We visit your property, measure your roof cleaningline, and design a custom permanent christmas lights layout. You receive a complete quote with fixture placement, colour options, and total investment. No guesswork, no surprise costs on installation day.

Our team maps the exact fixture positions, channel runs, and controller location for your home. We plan around architectural features including corners, peaks, dormers, and garages so the finished result looks intentional and clean, not improvised.

Our ESA Certified, WSIB insured installers mount the LED fixtures directly into your soffit or fascia. All wiring is concealed and weather-sealed to Ontario electrical standards. The installation typically takes one to two days depending on the size of your home.

Once the fixtures are in place, we connect your system to the smartphone app and walk you through every feature. You will leave the first day knowing how to switch colours, set a holiday schedule, run animations, and adjust brightness, all from your phone.

Your permanent christmas lights are built to last 50,000+ hours, but if anything ever needs attention, Apex Impressions is a phone call away. We service what we install and stand behind the quality of every project.

Characteristics of Professional Permanent Christmas Lights
Professional permanent christmas lights installations have four qualities that you will not find in a temporary setup: durability, versatility, clean appearance, and cost efficiency over time.
On durability: the LED fixtures we install carry an IP68 waterproof rating, the highest available for outdoor electronics. That means they are sealed against rain, snow, ice, and the freeze-thaw cycles that destroy unprotected electrical connections every Ontario winter. The LED elements themselves are rated for 50,000+ hours, which exceeds 20 years of typical use.
On versatility: the gemstone lights newmarket system we install supports 16 million colour combinations, animation sequences, and programmable schedules. Red and green for Christmas, blue and white for Hanukkah, orange for Halloween, pink for Valentine’s Day, or any colour you choose for a birthday party, anniversary, or backyard event.
On appearance: because the fixtures are mounted flush against the roofline in colour-matched hardware, the system is virtually invisible during the day. After dark, the lights run in a perfectly straight, consistent line around the full roofline.
On cost: at $7-10 per month in electricity, and zero annual setup or takedown costs, the system pays for itself in convenience and time savings within the first few years of ownership.
FAQ's
How are permanent christmas lights different from regular holiday lights?
Regular holiday lights are clip-on decorations designed for seasonal use. You put them up in November, take them down in January, and store them until next year. Permanent christmas lights are professional LED fixtures mounted directly into your home’s soffit or fascia. They stay in place year-round, are IP68 waterproof rated, and connect to a smartphone app for controlling 16 million colors and custom schedules. The fixtures are essentially invisible during the day and designed to last 50,000+ hours, which is more than 20 years of regular use.
Can permanent christmas lights be used for occasions other than Christmas?
Yes, and this is one of the most popular features of the system. Because the Gemstone Lights platform supports 16 million colors and programmable scenes, your installation works for every holiday and occasion on the calendar. Homeowners use their systems for Christmas, Halloween, Canada Day, New Year’s, Valentine’s Day, birthdays, graduations, and as year-round ambient lighting.
How long does it take to install permanent christmas lights?
Most residential installations take one to two days, depending on the size of your home and the complexity of your roofline. Our team handles everything: measurement, fixture mounting, wiring, and app setup. You do not need to be home for the full installation, though we do recommend being available for the app walkthrough at the end.
How much electricity do permanent christmas lights use?
Significantly less than you might expect. A full roofline permanent christmas lights installation typically costs $7-10 per month to run, which is less than most outdoor security lights and far less than the energy draw of older incandescent string lights. The LED technology used in the Gemstone Lights system is extremely energy-efficient by design.
