Before any hardware goes up
The first step is a look at the property, not a crew on the roof. Somebody comes out and looks at the roofline, talks through what you are after, and figures out which lines are worth lighting. The consultation is free and there is no obligation attached to it.
Custom design, not a template
Your house has its own lines, so the plan gets drawn around it. A good design follows the architecture that is already there: the roof edge, the peaks, the columns, the entry. On commercial work the same thinking applies to facades, entries and patios.
The install itself
Installation is professional, meaning the ladders, the track and the wiring are theirs to deal with. The channel follows the design and is color matched to the house. Power, controller and app setup are handled as part of the install,

Before the crew leaves, you get shown how to run it, so you can actually use it that evening.
Commercial work
For a business the steps are the same, though the building usually gives you more to work with. The difference is usually when the crew can be on site. Install timing works around when you are open, since the front of the building has to stay usable.
Come prepared
You do not need to prepare much, though a couple of answers help. Know which parts of the house you use in the evening. Think about whether this is mostly a holiday purchase or mostly an everyday one, since that shapes the plan. And look at your own house after dark once, because dark spots are obvious then and invisible at two in the afternoon.
Living with the system after install day
Expect the first week to be color testing. After the novelty, a pattern forms. The routine is generally a single warm white that comes on at dusk, with the color saved for the days that call for it.Set the schedule in the first few days. Lighting that needs a decision every evening does not get used as much.There is very little you have to do on install day. Clear access around the house makes the day go faster: gates unlocked, cars moved off the drive, dogs inside. Beyond that you can go about your day.
After the install
After that, you set what you want and it holds. The everyday setting usually ends up plain and warm, and the color gets used for holidays and birthdays. EverCrest Lighting does permanent lighting installation for homes and businesses across Upstate South Carolina and Western North Carolina from a base in Greenville.
