Outdoor Track Lighting & Exterior Cleaning in Vancouver

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick, honest answers to the questions we hear most—so you can book with confidence.

Outdoor track lighting FAQs

How much does outdoor track lighting cost?

Pricing depends on the length of your roofline and the complexity of your layout. Most property owners start with a free photo-based estimate, and we provide a clear, itemized quote before any work begins.

Will I see the track or wiring during the day?

No. Our systems use colour-matched tracks and concealed wiring for a clean, low-profile look. They’re designed to blend seamlessly with your prroperties architecture.

Is it app-controlled? Can I use warm white only?

Yes. You can run classic warm white for a refined “pot-light” look or choose RGB colours for holidays and events. Presets, timers, and scenes make control simple.

How does it perform in rain and coastal weather?

Components are weather-sealed and installed to manufacturer specs for Vancouver’s climate. We also route and seal connections to keep the system protected.

What about energy use?

High-efficiency LEDs draw significantly less power than old string lights or halogen fixtures. Most property owners notice negligible impact on their power bill.

How long does installation take?

Typical properties are completed in one to two days, depending on footage and roofline complexity. Commercial/strata timelines vary with scope.

What’s included on install day?

Precision-cut track, hidden wiring, sealed connections, app setup, saved scenes, a quick tutorial, and a tidy job site. You’ll receive warranty details in writing.

Can you install on metal/cedar/complex rooflines?

In most cases, yes. We assess fascia/soffit condition during quoting and propose the best mounting approach for your materials.

Exterior cleaning FAQs

Do you pressure wash everything?

No. Pressure washing is for hard surfaces like concrete, pavers, and some decking. Soft wash is for siding, soffits, and roofs—gentle on finishes, tough on organic growth.

Are your detergents eco-friendly?

Yes. We use eco-forward solutions and calibrated mixes to clean effectively while protecting landscaping and finishes.

What’s included with window cleaning?

Exterior glass, frames, sills, and screens. We use pure-water poles or detailed hand work for a streak-free finish. Post-construction cleaning is available.

How do you remove roof moss safely?

We use shingle-safe soft-wash methods: lift active growth, neutralize spores, and apply a preventative treatment to slow regrowth—protecting your roof and curb appeal.

What is gutter brightening vs. gutter cleaning?

Gutter cleaning removes debris and flushes downspouts. Gutter brightening treats the exterior oxidation/streaking to restore a clean trim line.

Why seal concrete and pavers?

Sealing helps resist moisture, stains, and UV, preserving colour and finish. It keeps surfaces looking “freshly cleaned” longer and simplifies maintenance.

How do you remove roof moss safely?

If needed, yes. A clean fascia/soffit helps lighting look its best. We can bundle and sequence services so prep is done before install.

Pricing, quotes & booking FAQs

How do I get a quote?

Send a few photos and your address for a fast, photo-based estimate, or book an on-site assessment for complex rooflines. We’ll provide clear, itemized pricing.

Do you offer bundles or maintenance plans?

Yes. Many clients bundle lighting with cleaning (e.g., soft wash + windows + gutters). Ask about seasonal/annual plans for strata and commercial properties.

What payment methods do you accept?

Cash, Debit, Visa, Mastercard, Apple Pay, and Cheque.

How far in advance should I book?

Lighting fills up before major holidays. For best availability, book 2–4 weeks ahead; cleaning often has sooner openings depending on weather.

Safety, credentials & warranties FAQs

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. We’re licensed, insured, and WorkSafeBC compliant. Safety protocols and site protection are standard on every job.

What warranties do you offer on lighting?

Celebright permanent outdoor track lighting includes a 10-year product warranty and a 5-year installation warranty. Details are provided in writing with your quote.

How do you protect landscaping and finishes?

We use drop cloths, guards, low-pressure rinses, and careful chemical selection. Cleanup is meticulous—no debris left behind.

Who do I contact if something needs adjustment after install?

Just call or text. We’ll troubleshoot and schedule a visit if needed.

We serve Vancouver, North Vancouver, West Vancouver, Burnaby, Abbotsford, Langley, White Rock, Richmond, Surrey, Coquitlam, Maple Ridge, Delta, New Westminster, Port Moody and occasionally Kelowna for premanent outdoor lighting installs and exterior cleaning services.
