Permanent Outdoor Lighting in Lakeland, FL
From Lake Morton bungalows to South Lakeland two-story homes, lit every night from your phone.
★★★★★ 5.0 on Google • Licensed & Insured • Family-owned, Central Florida
Permanent lighting in Lakeland looks its best where so much of the city’s evening life happens, around the lakes. On the path at Lake Hollingsworth or near the swans on Lake Morton at dusk, a lit roofline across the water stands out after the sun goes down.
It also solves a problem every homeowner here knows. The lights go up in November and come down in January, and the rest of the year the house is dark at night. A slim track mounted under your eave ends that routine, and because it is color-matched to your trim, during the day it looks like part of the house.
At Light The Peak, we are a family-owned lighting company serving Central Florida since 2023. We design the system, install it and put the controls in your hands.
Low Eaves and Deep Porches Around Lake Morton and Dixieland
Dixieland and the Lake Morton area, south of downtown, are among the city’s older neighborhoods. Many homes there are single-story or story-and-a-half, with wide front porches and eaves you can almost reach from the top step.
Low eaves work well for permanent lighting. The run is short and the light sits close to eye level, so the porch and front walk get a soft glow rather than a distant one. We color-match the track to your fascia, whether it is fresh white, a painted historic green or a wood tone you have kept on purpose. During the day it looks like trim, and nobody walking a dog past your house will notice it until evening.
Cleveland Heights, around the city golf course, has a similar feel with more variety, with ranch homes beside older cottages and hip roofs beside gables. Each house gets its own plan, because the rooflines on those streets vary so much.
Bigger Rooflines in Christina, Grasslands and Eaglebrooke
As you drive south toward Christina, Grasslands, Eaglebrooke and Lakeland Highlands, the houses change. You see more two-story homes, more hip roofs with several peaks and back elevations that open onto a fairway or a pond. These homes give permanent outdoor lighting the most to work with, and they are where careful design matters most.
A two-story front with a center gable can be lit as one clean line, or we can trace every peak so the full shape of the house shows at night. Out back, a lit roofline over the lanai makes the pool deck a comfortable place to spend the evening. Your free quote lays out each option for your house before you commit to anything.
If your community has an HOA or architectural review, permanent lighting usually counts as an exterior modification, so you apply first. We provide the spec sheet and daytime photos for your application, and the decision is the board’s.
A Year of Holidays on One Lakeland Roofline
Most nights you will leave your permanent lighting on warm white, set to turn on in the evening and off when you choose. When a holiday comes around, you can change it in a few seconds. Families use red and green all December, orange and purple for Halloween, red, white and blue for the Fourth and pastels on Easter morning, along with team colors on game day and a favorite color for a birthday.
The Minleon system we install offers 16 million colors, and every LED is controlled individually, so one roofline can show more than one color at a time. You can run a slow fade, a chase or steady white with a red accent over the front door. If your kids want to choose the color for the night, it takes one tap in the phone app.
What Permanent Lighting in Lakeland Costs
Permanent lighting starts at $2,500 installed, and most homes land between $3,000 and $6,000. Your price is based mainly on how much roofline we light, along with the number of stories, the peaks and angles on the roof and the coverage you choose. A Dixieland cottage and a two-story home in Eaglebrooke will be priced very differently, which is why we lay out the runs for your roofline. You get your exact number in your free quote.
From Your Free Quote to Your First Night Lit
To get started, request a free quote through the form or by calling (863) 400-0995. Tell us your address and what you want lit, such as the front eave, the peaks or the back over the lanai. We look at your roofline, lay out the runs and send a written quote with your exact price. Prefer to see the lights and the app on your own house first? We will come out for a free in-home demo, measure and walk you through the quote in person. You take your time deciding.
When you approve the quote, a 50% deposit reserves your install date. Most homes are installed in one day. Before our crew leaves, we set up the app on your phone, build your first schedule with you and run a few colors so you know how it works. The balance is due once the lights are on.
Every system carries our 5-year product warranty and a 1-year workmanship warranty, both directly from us. If something is wrong with the product or our work, we come back and make it right.
Adding Seasonal Lights for the Holidays
Many Lakeland families still want a big December display. With permanent lighting on the roofline, that part takes care of itself, so December can be about the extras. We also hang seasonal Christmas lighting, and the two work well together, with permanent lights on the eaves and seasonal wraps on the oaks, palms and shrubs out front.
The seasonal pieces come down after New Year’s, while the roofline stays up and ready for Valentine’s Day. There is no tangled box in the attic, and you never need to hang a roofline light again.
Want the numbers first? Here is what permanent lighting costs and how the price is built, how the main permanent lighting systems compare, and how our permanent outdoor lighting service works from design to install day.

Not ready to go permanent?
We will hang this year’s Christmas lights instead: our lights, installed, kept lit all season and taken down in January.
Permanent Lighting in Lakeland: Your Questions
Yes, because permanent lighting barely shows during the day. The track mounts under the eave and is color-matched to your fascia, so on a porch-front bungalow it looks like part of the trim. If your home needs design review first, we provide the spec sheet and daytime photos for your application, and the decision is the reviewing board’s.
Yes, and on a lakefront home the back is often the best part. The rear roofline over the lanai reflects on the water, so many lakeside designs include both the street side and the lake side. Tell us about both sides in your quote request, or walk them with us at a free in-home demo, and you get one price for the whole job.
Possibly. If your community has an HOA or architectural review, permanent lighting usually counts as an exterior modification, so you apply first. We provide the spec sheet and daytime photos for your application. The decision is the board’s, and we schedule your install once you have their answer.
Yes. We serve all of Lakeland, including Highland City, Lakeland Highlands and the neighborhoods along the Polk Parkway corridor. Request a free quote the same as anywhere in the city, and if you want a free in-home demo, we come out to you there too. Once you approve the quote, most homes are installed in a single day.
Permanent lighting starts at $2,500 installed, and most homes land between $3,000 and $6,000. Your exact price is based mainly on how much roofline we light, plus the height, peaks and coverage you choose, so we lay out the runs for your roofline before we quote. You get a written quote with a real number instead of a rough guess over the phone.
Yes. Choose a Christmas scene in the app, or build your own, and schedule it to run every night through the holidays. If you want more than the roofline, we can add seasonal wraps on trees and palms, then take them down after New Year’s while the roofline stays up for next year.
Never hang a light again.
From Lake Morton to Lakeland Highlands, your roofline can turn on every evening, and you never have to climb a ladder for it again.
