Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Govee permanent outdoor lighting installation.

Q01

What are Govee permanent outdoor lights?

Govee permanent outdoor lights are high-quality, weatherproof LED systems that are mounted to your home's soffit or fascia once and stay year-round. Unlike traditional seasonal lights, you never take them down — just change the colour and pattern from your phone app whenever you want.

Q02

What models do you install?

We specialize in Govee Elite, Govee Pro, and other permanent outdoor LED lighting models. Our trained installers are experienced with the full Govee permanent lineup and can recommend the best model for your property's size and goals.

Q03

How much does Govee installation cost?

Permanent Govee outdoor lighting starts at $28 per linear foot. Final pricing depends on your home's perimeter, the number of corners, soffit/fascia material, and any additional zones. We provide free, no-obligation quotes — just submit the form or contact us.

Q04

How long does installation take?

Most residential installations are completed within one day. Larger properties or commercial installs may take two days. We'll confirm the timeline when we assess your property.

Q05

Can I control the lights from my phone?

Yes. All Govee permanent lights are WiFi-enabled and controlled through the free Govee app (iOS & Android). You can change colours, run patterns, set schedules, sync to music, and control brightness — all from anywhere in the world.

Q06

Are the lights compatible with Alexa and Google?

Absolutely. Govee lights integrate with Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, and major smart home platforms, so you can control them with voice commands or include them in your home automations.

Q07

Are Govee lights weatherproof?

Yes. Govee permanent outdoor lights are rated for all Canadian weather conditions — rain, snow, heat, and cold. The system uses low-voltage CSA-approved hardware that's safe and durable year-round.

Q08

How long do the lights last?

Govee LED permanent lights are rated for 50,000+ hours — that's over 20 years of normal use. The hardware is built to last, which is why we can offer our industry-leading 5-year parts warranty.

Q09

What surfaces can you install on?

We install on wood, aluminum, and vinyl soffit and fascia. Our team will assess your home's materials during the quote process and recommend the optimal mounting approach.

Q10

What warranty do you offer?

We provide a 5-year parts warranty covering the LED lights, track system, controllers, and cables, plus a 1-year labor warranty on our installation work. If a component fails within the warranty period, we'll fix or replace it at no cost.

Q11

Do you offer financing?

Yes. We offer financing options over 6 months with interest-only payments, making it easy to upgrade your home's lighting without the full upfront cost.

Q12

We serve all of Southwestern and South-Central Ontario — from Windsor in the west to Oshawa in the east, and every city in between. Our core service areas include London, Kitchener-Waterloo, Hamilton, Windsor, Stratford, and the GTA. Can't find your city? Contact us — we likely cover it.
