Permanent lighting in Philo
Year-round roofline lighting, designed for Philo homes
For Philo homeowners who light every year, permanent lighting removes the annual install for good: one visit, decades of use, warm white every evening and holiday or Unity Rockets scenes at a tap.
Every system is installed by our Champaign crew and backed by our five-year warranty.
You may have seen it called permanent outdoor lighting, roofline lights, eave lights or smart outdoor lights; it's the same app-controlled system. We are a licensed installer of Orca Smart Lighting, the best permanent lights in Central Illinois, and every Philo system is backed by our 5-year warranty and serviced by the same local crew that installed it. Prefer a classic seasonal display with big C9 bulbs, wrapped trees and garland? See Christmas light installation in Philo.

Ranches get a single front roofline track that gives the home a finished look nightly. Two-stories get track on the front rooflines and garage. Unity families keep red and white saved, with Illini orange and blue for Saturdays.

Our lights were amazing. Lights were done quickly and efficiently. When the season was over he was back to take them down just when he said he would. We have had him put our lights up for several years and will continue to! Highly recommended.

We just had our lights installed by Midwest Holiday Lighting on Thanksgiving day. We just called them and let them know we would like them to do our light install and they worked us in quickly. They were very friendly, knowledgeable, courteous, and patient. We love the holiday lighting they installed on our house and will use them for years to come. They provided all the materials, completed the install quickly, and will store the lights for us during the off season. I added the wreath last minute and they had all the supplies to install it. We could not be happier with Tom and his crew and the job they did installing our lights. Thank You Midwest Holiday Lighting for making our holidays feel more merry and our home look brighter! Enjoy!
