The short answer
What are permanent Christmas lights?
Permanent Christmas lights are weather-rated RGBW LED lights installed inside a color-matched aluminum channel along your roofline, soffit, or peak. They blend invisibly into your home’s exterior during the day and light up at night with 16.7 million colors and a full library of animated effects — all controlled from your phone.
- They never come down. Unlike seasonal lights that come down every January, these stay installed year-round — Halloween, 4th of July, Valentine’s Day, game days, birthdays, weddings, or just everyday warm white.
- 12-inch bulb spacing, the industry standard for Christmas displays, on every install.
- UL-listed components rated IP68 waterproof, backed by a lifetime warranty.
- Built for Utah weather — heavy snow, harsh UV, and temperature swings from -10°F to 100°F.
Disappears by day
Color-matched channel. Concealed wires. Invisible install.
Every Sparkled install starts with measuring your home’s trim color and matching it to a stocked aluminum channel — black, white, bronze, brown, gray, or custom. The 30mm RGBW pucks mount recessed inside the channel, so during the day the system reads as a clean trim line.
- Color-matched to your trim — multiple channel finishes in stock, plus custom matching.
- UV-stable anodized aluminum — corrosion-resistant for year-round outdoor exposure.
- Stainless steel fasteners rated for fascia and roofing materials — no compromised roof integrity.
- All wiring concealed inside the channel — no cords draped along the soffit, no junction boxes hanging off the fascia.
From the street, most homeowners can’t tell the lights are even there until they turn on at night. See channel color options →

The 12-inch standard
Why we space lights at 12 inches, not closer.
Sparkled spaces every light at 12 inches on every install — the industry standard for commercial Christmas lighting, and the same spacing as traditional incandescent string lights. Other brands often use 6 to 9-inch spacing, which sounds like more for your money. It isn’t: tighter spacing collapses the individual bulbs into a solid bar of light — the look of an LED strip or a stadium scoreboard, not a Christmas display.

What the app actually does
Five real scenes, one Clearfield evening.
These aren't renders. On install night this Clearfield homeowner scrolled through looks in the app while we photographed — pure white to warm white to red, blue and purple, minutes apart on the same roofline. Tap through what one system does.
The hardware behind the app
This is the box the app talks to.
Every install includes the controller — the enclosure in this photo — mounted out of the way, wired to the roofline, and connected to your home Wi-Fi before we leave. It holds your schedules and runs them on its own, so the lights come on at dusk whether your phone is home or not. When you open the app, this is what answers: pick a color or a pattern and the controller pushes it to every bulb on the line. It's itemized on your quote alongside the footage — not buried in the rate — and set up before install day ends.

What permanent Christmas lights cost in Utah.
Every home is different. Below are typical ranges — your exact quote depends on roofline length, complexity, and how much of the home you want covered. The $1,000 install credit applies to all three tiers.
Small · front only
Front roofline
80–120 linear feet of roofline
$2,000 – $3,500
Installed, fully warrantied
- Front roofline coverage
- Color-matched aluminum channel
- RGBW LEDs at 12-inch spacing
- Smartphone app + controller
- Lifetime warranty on the LED lights
Mid-size · most common
Front & side, or two-story
140–200 linear feet of roofline
$3,500 – $6,000
Installed, fully warrantied
- Front + both sides coverage
- Color-matched aluminum channel
- RGBW LEDs at 12-inch spacing
- Smartphone app + controller
- Concealed wiring, hidden mounting
- Lifetime warranty on the LED lights
Large · full wrap
Full perimeter coverage
240–400+ linear feet — dormers, peaks, garage
$6,000 – $12,000+
Installed, fully warrantied
- Full perimeter + accent areas
- Multiple zones, scheduled separately
- RGBW LEDs at 12-inch spacing
- Smartphone app + multi-zone controller
- Concealed wiring, hidden mounting
- Lifetime warranty on the LED lights
Typically $25–$30+ per linear foot installed, plus the controller and any jumps — both itemized on your quote rather than buried in the rate. Linear footage is the biggest single cost driver, because the aluminum channel is cut and color-matched to your home.
Why prices vary by home. A simple single-story rancher with a clean front roofline costs less than a two-story with multiple peaks, dormers, and a garage. Steeper rooflines, more channel jumps, and harder access all add labor.
Want the same lights for about a third less? SmartClip LED Lighting runs the identical RGBW pucks and the same app on patented clips instead of channel — roughly 30% less, at $17–$21+ per linear foot.
What’s always included: UL-listed RGBW LED lights, color-matched aluminum channel, concealed wiring, smartphone app setup, controller, and a lifetime warranty on the LEDs. No hidden upcharges for “premium” colors or display options — every install gets the full 16.7M color spectrum. See the full 2026 Davis County pricing guide →

Questions, answered
Permanent Christmas lights, explained.
The ten questions Utah homeowners actually ask before buying — answered in full, nothing hidden.
What are permanent Christmas lights?
Permanent Christmas lights are weather-rated RGBW LED lights installed inside a color-matched aluminum channel along your roofline. They blend into your home's exterior during the day and can display 16.7 million colors plus a full library of animated effects at night — controlled from your phone for any holiday, event, or season. Unlike seasonal Christmas lights, they stay installed year-round and never come down.
How much do permanent Christmas lights cost in Utah?
Sparkled Lighting permanent Christmas lights start at $2,000 for smaller homes, with most installs falling in the $3,500–$6,000+ range. Final price depends on linear footage of roofline and how many areas are covered (front only vs. front + sides + back + garage). We give a firm, transparent quote after a quick onsite assessment, with no surprise charges.
Are permanent Christmas lights visible during the day?
Sparkled installs permanent lights inside a color-matched aluminum channel that blends into your fascia, soffit, or peak. The 30mm RGBW LED lights are mounted recessed into this channel, with all wiring concealed. From the street during the day, most homeowners cannot see the lights are even there — only at night when they turn on.
What is the warranty on permanent Christmas lights?
Sparkled Lighting permanent Christmas lights come with a lifetime warranty on the LED lights themselves. The LED system is rated IP68 (fully waterproof and dustproof) and UL-listed, with UL 94V-0 fire-rated LED housings. Our installations are designed to withstand Utah's harsh summer UV and winter snow.
How are permanent Christmas lights controlled?
Permanent Christmas lights are controlled through a smartphone app over your home Wi-Fi. The app gives you 16.7 million color choices for static displays, 4.3 billion RGBW color combinations for advanced setups, 150+ animated effects, scheduling for holidays and events, and a library of pre-built display patterns. No remote control, no light switch — just your phone.
Why do you use 12 inch bulb spacing instead of closer spacing?
Sparkled uses 12-inch spacing because it's the industry standard for commercial Christmas lighting and the same spacing as traditional string lights. At 12 inches, you get the classic Christmas light feel at night plus a smooth color wash for year-round use. Other brands use much tighter spacing (6-9 inches), which looks like a solid bar of light rather than individual bulbs — losing the classic Christmas aesthetic.
Are permanent Christmas lights safe in Utah weather?
Yes. Sparkled's permanent LED system is rated IP68 — fully waterproof and dustproof — with UL 94V-0 fire-rated LED housings inside UV-stable color-matched aluminum channel. The 30mm RGBW LEDs are designed for outdoor year-round use, including Utah's heavy snow loads, summer UV, and seasonal temperature swings from -10°F to 100°F. The system is UL-listed for safety and pulls minimal power.
How long does permanent Christmas light installation take?
Most permanent Christmas light installations are completed in a single day. Larger or more complex homes may take two days. Our installer Ryan handles everything — measuring, cutting custom-fit aluminum channel, mounting, wiring, controller installation, and app setup — so you don't have to coordinate multiple visits.
Can permanent Christmas lights be used for other holidays?
Yes — that's the whole point. With 16.7 million colors and dozens of effects, you can light up for Halloween (orange/purple), Valentine's Day (pink/red), 4th of July (red/white/blue), birthdays, sports game days, weddings, or just everyday warm white. Many customers schedule them through the app to automatically change with the calendar.
Do permanent Christmas lights damage my roof or fascia?
No. Sparkled installs the aluminum channel using stainless steel screws specifically rated for fascia and roofing materials. The channel is designed to mount discreetly without compromising your roof's integrity, and we color-match the channel to your home's existing trim so it blends invisibly. We've installed on hundreds of Utah homes with zero structural issues.
Will my HOA allow permanent Christmas lights?
Every HOA writes its own rules, so we can't promise what yours will say — but permanent lighting is usually an easier conversation than people expect. The system is designed to disappear by day: the channel is color-matched to your trim, the wiring is fully concealed, and nothing hangs, drapes, or clips onto the roof. Most HOA objections to holiday lighting are about visible cords and off-season clutter, and this system has neither. If your HOA has exterior-modification guidelines, check them before install day — and bring them to the free onsite quote so the plan fits inside them.
