Why go permanent

Done with the ladder for good

No more ladders every November

The lights go up one time. No hauling bins out of the garage, no clipping strands to the gutter in the cold, no pulling them back down in January.

Hard to spot in the daytime

The track mounts tight under the eave and is matched to your trim, so the house looks normal during the day. You see the lights when they are on, not the hardware.

Every holiday, not just Christmas

Red and green in December, orange for Halloween, red white and blue for the Fourth, team colors on game day, warm white the rest of the year.

Runs on a schedule

Set it once and it comes on at dusk and shuts off when you want. Change colors or patterns from your phone without going outside.

Real power, not extension cords

No cords through the garage door and no outdoor outlet tripping every time it rains. The system gets proper outdoor power, set up by a licensed electrician.

What it is

Lights that live on your roofline

Permanent lighting is a slim aluminum track mounted under the eaves with LED lights set inside it. It stays up all year and you barely notice it until you turn it on.

Every light can be any color, so the same system does Christmas, Halloween, the Fourth of July, game day and a clean warm white accent on any other night. It runs from an app on your phone. Pick a color, pick a pattern, set a schedule, and it takes care of itself from there.

Every holiday

Christmas in December. Warm white the rest of the year.

Classic strands give you one look for one month. Permanent lights give you whatever you want, whenever you want it, from the couch.

Set it to come on at dusk and shut off at eleven. Run red and green through December, switch to orange for Halloween, go red white and blue for the Fourth, and leave it on a soft warm white for parties and everyday curb appeal. No climbing, no unplugging, no tangled strands in the garage.

Why an electrician

It is an electrical install. Treat it like one.

Permanent lighting is wired into your house for good, so the power behind it matters as much as the lights.

The power supplies need a proper, protected spot. The outdoor outlet feeding the system needs GFCI protection and a weatherproof in-use cover. The circuit has to carry the load without tripping when the garage freezer and the shop compressor kick on. A lot of Tri-Cities homes have one tired outdoor outlet on a shared garage circuit, and that is where cheap installs go wrong. We handle the lights and the electrical in the same visit, licensed and done to code.

How it works

From the first call to lights on

Call or send the form

Tell us which rooflines you want lit and roughly how big the house is. We set a time to come out.

Every roofline gets measured, we match the track to your trim, and we look at where the power will come from and the circuit behind it.

You get a written price

One price for the lights, the track and any outlet or circuit work. You approve it before anything goes up.

We install it and hand you the app

Track goes up clean, power gets wired right, and we set up the app with you so you leave with your first schedule running.

Panel & rewire

Gale Electric is amazing. They worked on a very long and tedious project at my house (installing a new panel, rewiring, etc). They were able to get us scheduled quickly! They always showed up right on time and were very kind. They explained everything they were doing and let us know the quote upfront. Great team of people!

Troubleshooting

Gale Electric exceeded my expectations. Kyle Gale was able to diagnose the electrical issues that others could not determine. They fixed the issue properly and up to code. Thank you for the peace of mind.

Panel repair

Kyle showed up my house fast as he possibly could and got my electrical panel fixed up within the week. I can rest easy knowing my house won't burn down and that Gale Electric is always available when I needed!

Lighting & fans

Both electricians were helpful in advising re: light location and type, switching options and fan recommendations. Work was done as expected.

EV charger

Gale Electric was absolutely great for installing my Level 2 EV Charger. I called probably about 6-7 companies to get quotes on installation. Gale Electric was fairly priced and the most responsive.

Added circuits

I needed help with increasing the power options in my office. Kyle came out quickly to talk it over, gave me a great path forward that I hadn't considered and didn't try to over-sell me on something I didn't need. He was great!

FAQ

Permanent Christmas light questions

What are permanent Christmas lights?

Permanent Christmas lights are LED lights mounted in a slim track along your roofline that stay up all year. They are controlled from a phone app, so you can run any color, pattern or schedule for any holiday, or plain warm white the rest of the year.

How much do permanent Christmas lights cost in the Tri-Cities?

It depends on how many feet of roofline you want lit, how many stories the house is, and what the power setup needs. We measure the house and give you a written price before anything goes up. Quotes are free.

Can you see permanent lights during the day?

Not much. The track sits tight under the eave and is matched to your trim color as closely as we can, so from the street the house looks normal in daylight.

Why have an electrician install permanent lighting?

Because it is a permanent electrical install. The power supplies need a proper home, the outdoor outlet needs GFCI protection and a weatherproof in-use cover, and the circuit has to be able to carry it. A licensed electrician handles all of that in the same visit, done to code.

When should I book permanent Christmas lights?

Now. Fall is the busy season for holiday lighting and the calendar fills up before December. The nice part about permanent lights is that once they are in, you never have to book again. Call (509) 205-8146.

Do you still hang traditional Christmas lights?

Ask us when you call. If permanent is not the right fit for your house, we will tell you, and we can talk through the classic roofline and tree lighting options too.

Do you work in Kennewick, Richland, Pasco and West Richland?

Yes. Gale Electric is based in Richland and works across the Tri-Cities, including Kennewick, Pasco, West Richland, Benton City, Burbank, Finley and Prosser. Appointments run Monday through Friday, 7AM to 5PM.
