Which one is right for you?

DIY can make sense if you have a single-story home with a simple roofline, an outdoor outlet where you need it, and you're comfortable on a ladder.

Professional installation makes sense for two-story homes, multi-gable rooflines, or when you want a clean, centered line on every peak without spending weekends on a ladder.

Questions

Govee sells them as a DIY kit and publishes its own installation guide. Govee's product page also says that if you can't complete the installation yourself, you should consult a professional.

Our installs use the professional track system described on this site. If you already own a DIY kit, mention it in your quote request and we'll tell you honestly what we can and can't help with.

They can be, if you're comfortable on a ladder, your roofline is simple, and you're happy doing your own setup and troubleshooting. If you have a two-story home, lots of peaks, or no outdoor power where you need it, a professional install is usually the safer choice.

Those are other permanent lighting brands people search for. We aren't affiliated with them and don't sell them. If you're comparing quotes, compare footage, warranty, who does the electrical work, and whether the price is in writing.
