What we install
Permanent lighting first. Supporting upgrades when they make sense.

Why permanent lighting
One install. Every season. Every mood.
Permanent lighting replaces the yearly ladder routine with a low-profile system that handles warm accent lighting, holidays, security, game days, and everyday curb appeal. If solar or electrical work belongs in the plan, we can coordinate that too.

Frequently asked questions.
Everything Calgary homeowners ask before booking.
Pricing depends on your lighting run length, home complexity, and feature set. Every Starise install includes everything — lights, controller, app, and labour — with zero hidden fees or subscriptions. Get your exact quote in under 60 seconds.
Most installations are completed in a single day — typically 4 to 8 hours depending on the size and complexity of your home exterior. Starise handles everything from measurement to final testing.
Yes. Starise uses IP68-rated Gen 2 puck nodes and a 24V low-voltage system specifically designed for extreme cold. The lights are rated to -40°C and have been tested through multiple Calgary winters without failure.
24V systems deliver consistent brightness across longer runs without voltage drop, support more effects, and are more reliable in cold climates. 12V systems lose brightness over distance and limit the total number of nodes. Starise exclusively installs 24V Gen 2 systems.
No. Starise permanent lights come with a free app — no monthly fees, no annual subscriptions, no hidden costs. You own your system outright and control 75,000+ effects from your phone.
The LEDs are rated for 100,000+ hours of use — that's over 15 years of nightly operation. The IP68-rated housings protect against moisture, dust, and UV damage, so the system is built to last decades with zero maintenance.
Yes. Starise offers 0% financing through Humm for qualified customers. Apply during your quote consultation; financing approval and account terms are handled by Humm. Ask about financing →
