Permanent lighting is a professional-grade LED system installed once along your roofline, eaves, or other architectural features, where it remains in place year-round. This roofline lighting solution is virtually invisible during the day and comes to life at night with customizable decorative lights that you control from your smartphone. Easily change colors for Christmas, Halloween, the Fourth of July, game day, birthday celebrations, or simply enjoy a warm white glow any evening. With one professional installation, you can enjoy beautiful lighting for every occasion throughout the year.
We install a professional-grade, commercial-quality RGB2 LED system — the same product line used on commercial buildings, resorts, and high-end residential properties. This is not a consumer product you buy at a retail store. It is purpose-built for permanent outdoor installation with full-spectrum color-changing capability, app control, and components rated for long-term exposure to UV, wind, rain, snow, and Central Oregon's temperature extremes.
Completely different. Traditional Christmas lights are designed for seasonal use — they are not engineered for year-round sun exposure, and they cannot change colors or be controlled from your phone. Permanent architectural lighting is a purpose-built system with commercial-grade LED modules, weatherproof wiring, and a discreet track that mounts flush against your roofline. During the day, you barely notice it is there. At night, it transforms your home.
Yes. Every permanent lighting installation includes full app control. You can change colors, create custom scenes, set schedules, adjust brightness, and program themes for specific holidays or events — all from your smartphone. The system works on both iOS and Android.
Millions. The RGB2 system produces a full spectrum of colors, from warm white to deep red to electric blue and everything in between. You can display a single color, multiple colors, gradients, patterns, and animated effects. Most homeowners keep it on warm white 90 percent of the time and switch to themed colors for holidays and events.
Anything. Christmas (red and green or classic white), Halloween (orange and purple), Fourth of July (red, white, and blue), Valentine's Day, St. Patrick's Day, Easter, birthdays, graduation parties, Oregon State game days, University of Oregon game days, or just a clean white accent every night. One system handles all of it.
Barely. The mounting track and LED modules are designed to sit flush against your fascia or soffit. From the street, the system is virtually invisible during daylight hours. This is one of the biggest differences between professional-grade permanent lighting and consumer products — ours disappears by day and transforms your home by night.
Most residential installations in Bend are completed in one day. Larger homes or complex rooflines may take two days. Commercial properties vary based on scope. We will give you a clear timeline during your on-site lighting assessment.
Every permanent lighting installation comes with our Lifetime Guarantee on all materials and product components. If a component fails, we replace it. Our labor and installation are covered by a 1-year service warranty — if something is wrong with our workmanship, we come back and fix it at no charge.
Yes. The system we install is rated for extreme temperature ranges, including the sub-zero nights Bend sees in December and January. These are the same commercial-grade components used on buildings in mountain climates across the country. We have tested them through nearly two decades of Central Oregon winters.
Yes. Many Bend homeowners start with just their front roofline or primary eave and add more later. The system is modular and expandable. We design every installation to allow for future additions without rework.
Yes. We do install Govee products if that is what you prefer. However, before any Govee installation, we will present you with a side-by-side comparison of the Govee system and our professional-grade permanent lighting system so you can make a fully informed decision. In many cases, the price difference is smaller than you would expect — and the quality, warranty, and longevity are dramatically different.
Govee is a consumer-grade product designed primarily for DIY installation. Our professional-grade system is a commercial-quality product designed for permanent outdoor use. The key differences: Govee uses adhesive mounting that degrades in UV and weather — ours uses a mechanical track system screwed into your fascia. Govee has no professional installation warranty — we provide a Lifetime Guarantee on materials and a 1-year labor warranty. Govee's components are rated for approximately 50,000 hours under ideal conditions — our system is tested for long-term permanent outdoor exposure through real Central Oregon weather cycles including UV, snow, ice, wind, and temperature swings from below zero to over 100 degrees. Govee has documented product recalls and fire safety concerns reported to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission — our system is professionally installed to code by licensed, insured installers.
On paper, sometimes — but the gap is often smaller than people expect once you factor in professional installation labor for both options. More importantly, Govee systems typically need replacement within a few years due to weather degradation, adhesive failure, and component burnout. Our system is installed once, warrantied for life on materials, and professionally maintained. Over a five to ten year window, the professional system costs less and performs dramatically better.
We are biased, but here is the honest answer: if you are comfortable on a ladder, have the right safety equipment, and are installing a consumer product on a single-story home, DIY is an option. But most Bend homes have steep rooflines, multi-story sections, and complex architecture that make DIY installation genuinely dangerous. Beyond safety, a professional installation means proper mounting, clean wiring, code compliance, full warranty coverage, and someone to call when something goes wrong. The majority of homeowners who attempt DIY permanent lighting end up calling a professional to fix or redo the installation within the first year.
Yes. If you have already purchased Govee or another consumer product, we will install it for you. We will also show you what the professional alternative looks like and costs so you have full information before we start. There is no pressure — if you want us to install the Govee system, we will do it right.
It depends on your home size, design complexity, and how much of the property you want lit. As a general guide: a smaller Bend home (under 2,000 sq ft) with front eave lighting typically runs $500 to $1,000. A mid-size home (around 3,000 sq ft) with eaves, peaks, and some landscaping runs $1,000 to $2,500. Larger homes, multi-story properties, and custom displays start at $2,500 and go up from there. Commercial projects range from $1,000 to over $100,000 depending on the property. Every estimate is custom and free — no obligation.
Residential permanent lighting is typically priced in the range of $25 to $30 per linear foot, depending on roofline complexity, multi-story access, and architectural details. A typical single-story Bend home with 100 to 150 linear feet of roofline would fall in the $2,500 to $4,500 range. Larger homes, wrap-around installations, and multi-story properties are quoted individually. We will give you an exact price during your on-site lighting assessment.
Yes. Every estimate is free, and there is no obligation. Most estimates are delivered within 24 hours. You can request one at brightwrx.com/bend/free-estimate or call us directly at (541) 933-4980. For many properties, we can provide an accurate quote remotely using satellite imagery and property data. For more complex projects, we schedule an on-site lighting assessment.
For permanent lighting, we offer a lease option for both residential and commercial customers. The lease structure includes a down payment that covers materials and installation labor, with the remaining balance spread over a 12-month lease term. Leases renew year-to-year at a standard rate with no additional deposit. This is especially popular with commercial properties because the lease payment can be categorized as a property maintenance or CAM expense.
Yes. Returning holiday lighting customers receive a 25 percent loyalty discount. For permanent lighting, existing seasonal customers receive a special loyalty promotion: your prior-year seasonal payment is credited toward your permanent lighting installation. This is our way of saying thank you for being a long-term customer.
For holiday lighting, we require a deposit for materials upon booking, with the remaining balance due at installation. For permanent lighting, payment terms are outlined in your proposal based on the scope and whether you are purchasing outright or leasing.
If you find a comparable permanent lighting system—featuring a commercial-grade product with a lifetime warranty on materials and installed by a licensed, insured contractor—we'll beat that price by 10%. To qualify, the system must offer the same level of quality, warranty coverage, and professional installation. Consumer-grade products, such as Govee, are not eligible for the price match because they are not equivalent to our commercial-grade permanent lighting solutions.
