Everything Calgary homeowners ask before booking.
Most Calgary homes cost between $3,500 and $6,500 fully installed. Price depends on roofline length, corners, and peaks. Starise includes everything — lights, controller, app, and labour — with zero hidden fees or subscriptions.
Most installations are completed in a single day — typically 4 to 8 hours depending on the size and complexity of your roofline. 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 50,000+ 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.
