Permanent lighting

What are permanent Christmas lights?

Permanent Christmas lights — also called permanent holiday lights or year-round outdoor lighting — are a one-time, app-controlled LED system installed along your roofline and tucked into a low-profile polymer channel. By day it's nearly invisible; by night it's warm white, full-color holiday scenes, July 4 patriotic, or game-day colors, all from your phone. No annual install, no takedown, no boxes in the garage. Alexandria is a mix of historic Old Town rowhomes and larger West End and Kingstowne single-family homes — and Light DMV installs permanent lighting across all of it, from Del Ray and Rosemont to Cameron Station.

How it works

Individually addressable RGBW — hidden by day

The channel

A slim polymer channel tucks under your eave — screwed into the soffit, or bonded to a metal gutter with a very durable 3M double-sided metal tape — color-matched to your trim. The LEDs sit inside it — barely visible in daylight, which matters on an Old Town or Del Ray facade.

The control

Each LED is individually addressable RGBW: any color, any pattern, scheduled from the app. Runs on standard 110V exterior power with a weatherproof transformer.

App & scenes

Every holiday, game day, and everyday warm white

Control colors, run presets (Christmas, Halloween, July 4, birthdays, team colors), schedule sunset-to-midnight, dim, and sync to music — all from iOS or Android, plus Alexa and Google Home. Set it once and your Alexandria home celebrates on its own. This app-controlled permanent lights Alexandria setup turns a roofline into a year-round feature instead of a six-week display.

DIY vs. professional

Govee and DIY kits vs. a professional permanent system

A Govee or peel-and-stick DIY kit is fine for a quick, low-cost string you put up yourself — it's a different category from a professionally installed architectural system. DIY kits mount with adhesive or clips that commonly sag, space unevenly, and let go in DMV freeze-thaw — and you're the installer, the ladder crew, and the warranty. A Light DMV system uses a color-matched polymer channel fastened to your trim, commercial-grade color-stable LEDs, professional design and install, and a lifetime workmanship warranty — plus a clean, approval-friendly look that matters on an Old Town or Del Ray home.

Our platform

Built on a commercial-grade platform

Light DMV installs a commercial-grade RGBW permanent lighting platform — weatherproof hardware, color-stable addressable chips, a clean iOS/Android app, and professional dealer support. Every Alexandria system is professionally installed, color-matched to your trim, and backed by our 5-year LED warranty, lifetime workmanship warranty, and full insurance.

Why Alexandria chooses Light DMV

Alexandria keeps us busy — Old Town rowhomes where a clean single run along the front fascia is everything, and bigger homes out in Del Ray, Rosemont, and the West End. We color-match the channel to the trim so it disappears by day, which is exactly what a historic-district block wants. Done right, the lighting reads as architecture, not an add-on.
