Silicon Valley Lights is a professional outdoor lighting contractor serving the San Francisco Bay Area. We design, install, and manage event lighting, Christmas and holiday lighting, permanent year-round outdoor lighting, and Govee smart roofline installations for homes, estates, venues, and commercial properties.

Our standard service area includes listed cities across the South Bay, Peninsula, San Francisco, and North Bay, such as San Jose, Palo Alto, Saratoga, Los Gatos, San Mateo, San Francisco, San Rafael, and Novato. We review requests from other cities case by case, so availability is not guaranteed.

Most Silicon Valley Lights projects start at $1,000 and scale based on the size of the home, linear footage, and design complexity. Pricing includes design, commercial-grade materials, professional installation, in-season maintenance, and full takedown and storage.

Our minimum project size is $1,000. This minimum applies across event, Christmas, and permanent lighting installations, and it ensures every job receives the same commercial-grade materials, custom design, professional crew, and dedicated scheduling that define our work.

Yes. Permanent lighting installations carry a 3-year warranty on the lights and a 3-year warranty on our installation craftsmanship. Govee smart roofline installations using the PermTrack PVC channel carry a lifetime warranty on the channel system itself.

We are an independent local Bay Area company, not a franchise. We are fast, responsive, and white-glove, staying with you from the first conversation through installation and ongoing service.

Yes. We choose access and installation methods to protect your roof and property. When ladders are needed, we use gutter-safe ladders, and when a job warrants it, we bring cherry pickers. Our crew is licensed and insured.

Yes. A 50% deposit secures your booking, with the remaining balance due upon completion of the installation. This locks in your install date during our busy event and holiday seasons.

PermTrack is a rigid PVC channel system from a partner manufacturer that we install on Govee permanent smart roofline projects. It fully conceals the wiring, holds the LED strip in a perfectly straight line along the fascia, and is paintable and color-matchable to your trim for a clean architectural finish.

Our Govee installations with the PermTrack channel produce a comparable architectural finish to Trimlight and Gemstone at a more accessible price point. The main advantage is local service, since you work directly with our Bay Area team rather than through a franchise or national third-party channel.

Yes. Every Christmas lighting package includes full takedown and storage in January, plus in-season maintenance visits if anything needs adjustment during the holidays. You do not need to handle anything after the initial install.

We recommend booking by early October. November slots fill very quickly, and we cannot guarantee availability after early November.

Yes. We design and install custom event lighting for weddings, corporate events, private parties, restaurants, and venues throughout the Bay Area. Packages include warm-white bistro and market strings, uplighting, tree wash lighting, and full takedown after the event.

Yes. Every lighting system we install can be made app-controlled if you want it to be, from warm white Edison and C9 strings to event uplighting and permanent rooflines. Our Govee permanent roofline systems are the most feature-rich out of the box, with full app and voice control, millions of colors, scheduling, holiday presets, and per-node animations built in.
