What permanent lighting is
Permanent lighting is a run of exterior LED lights fixed along the lines of your house: the roofline, the gables, the eaves, the columns and the trim that gives the house its shape. It goes up once. It stays up. When you want holiday lighting, you have it without touching a ladder. When you want the house lit for a summer evening, it is already there.
It replaces the annual routine most homeowners hate: dragging strands out of the garage, finding the dead section, climbing up in the cold, and taking it all down again in January. The install is a one-time job done by someone who works on rooflines every week.

- No hidden fees. The number you get is the number you pay. That is the No Hidden-Fee Guarantee.
Permanent holiday lights without the ladder
The holiday season is where permanent lighting earns its keep. The house is lit the day you decide it is, and dark the day you decide that. No strands, no clips, no extension cords across the lawn, no trip up the ladder in the rain. The lights are already on the house and they stay there through January and every month after.
That is also why the work belongs with someone who is at home on a roofline. Fitting lights along an eave is work at height, the same as cleaning a gutter or meshing a solar array. CA Solar Wash is licensed, insured and on rooflines every week. That is the difference between a permanent install and a permanent problem.
Lighting and the rest of the exterior
Check the fascia, trim and roofline condition before adding a lighting system. If the gutters are packed or the fascia is streaked, say so and CA Solar Wash quotes the cleaning alongside the lighting so the install goes onto a surface worth looking at. Cleaning and guard installation can be discussed alongside lighting; the schedule depends on access and the product requirements.
Send a photo of the front of the house from the street, and one of any side you want lit. Say how many stories, whether there is solar on the roof, and what you want the lights to do. Call (559) 755-1056 or use the quote form. Financing and payment plans are available.
Power, controls and maintenance: what to confirm
Ask whether the proposed system needs an existing outdoor outlet, a new circuit or other electrical work. New wiring and electrical alterations need an appropriately licensed contractor where required; a lighting quote should identify who is responsible.
Confirm how everyday controls work, whether Wi-Fi or an app is required, and what happens if the network is unavailable. Ask about replacement sections, controller support, ongoing fees if any, and how the lights will be accessed after installation. Permanent means intended to stay fitted, not that components never need maintenance.
