Elite Exteriors offers professional Christmas light installation and removal for homes and businesses throughout Hampton Roads, Virginia, with custom designs and safe, insured installation built to hold up against local weather.

You Buy the Lights. We Handle the Ladder.

Already purchased permanent outdoor lights or traditional Christmas lights? Elite Exteriors provides professional installation using your customer-supplied lighting, including popular systems such as Govee permanent outdoor lights. We provide the labor, equipment, and installation knowledge—without requiring a long-term service package or storage agreement. If you’re not satisfied with the initial installation, we’ll return to make reasonable adjustments.

Customer-Supplied Christmas & Permanent Light Installation

You Choose the Lights. We Install Them.

You’ve found the perfect lights—now let Elite Exteriors handle the ladder work.

Our customer-supplied light installation service is designed for homeowners who have purchased their own permanent outdoor lighting or traditional Christmas lights but want a knowledgeable professional to install them safely and neatly. You provide the lights, and we provide the labor, ladders, equipment, and installation experience.

This service is especially convenient when permanent outdoor lights are purchased online or given as a gift. Whether you received a Govee lighting system for Christmas, purchased another brand of permanent lights from Amazon, or already own traditional holiday lights, we can help you get them installed without the stress or risk of climbing onto a ladder.

What We Install

We can install many types of customer-supplied exterior lighting, including:

• Govee permanent outdoor lights
• Other compatible permanent lighting systems
• Traditional Christmas string lights
• Roofline and gutter-line lights
• Lights around porches, entryways, columns, and other suitable exterior areas
• Customer-supplied clips and mounting accessories

Before scheduling, we may ask for photographs of your home, the lighting product, and the areas where you would like the lights installed. This allows us to confirm that the system is suitable for the property and determine what equipment will be needed.

What’s Included?

Your installation service includes:

•  Professional installation labor
• Ladders and standard access equipment
•  Installation knowledge and layout assistance
• Placement of customer-supplied lights and mounting accessories
• Basic testing of the lights after installation
• A return visit for reasonable installation adjustments if you are not satisfied with the initial placement

Our goal is to create a clean, attractive installation while saving you the time, effort, and safety risk of doing the ladder work yourself.

A Simple, One-Time Professional Service

This is a one-time installation service—not a lighting lease, annual package, or subscription. You purchase and own your lights, and you decide when you would like them installed.

Elite Exteriors does not store customer lighting or decorations. After removal, you remain responsible for keeping and storing your lights until you are ready to use them again.

Future installation, removal, repair, or reinstallation services may be scheduled and priced separately.

Customer-Supplied Products and Materials

Customers are responsible for supplying the lighting system and any manufacturer-recommended clips, tracks, adhesives, fasteners, extension cords, controllers, power supplies, or other accessories needed for installation.

We recommend opening and testing all lights before the scheduled installation date. Elite Exteriors is not responsible for defective lights, missing components, manufacturer malfunctions, Wi-Fi or app-connection issues, electrical problems, or product failures unrelated to our installation workmanship.

If additional materials are needed, we will let you know whenever possible before or during the installation.

Perfect for Gifted Permanent Lights

Permanent outdoor lighting systems have become a popular gift for homeowners—but the installation can be the most difficult part. If you purchased permanent lights for a family member, gave someone a Govee lighting system, or received a set as a gift, our installation service helps make sure the lights actually get out of the box and onto the home.

It’s a practical way to complete the gift without asking the recipient to spend hours on a ladder.
