OUR STORY
Built on Craftsmanship. Driven by Pride.
We're not a franchise. We're not out-of-town contractors. We're a dedicated Calgary-based team that has specialized in permanent outdoor LED lighting for over 8 years. When you call us, you talk to the person who will be on your roof.
What sets us apart: Brenton has a background in home inspections. That means we know exactly how to integrate tracks into your soffit and fascia without causing water damage, ice damming, or voiding your roof warranty — something seasonal contractors routinely get wrong.
Permanent outdoor lighting changed everything. Now we lead a team of dedicated installers who take genuine pride in transforming Calgary homes. We're not a franchise — we're your neighbors, and we treat every home like it's our own.
Calgary Permanent Lights is an authorized Gemstone Lights dealer serving Calgary, Airdrie, Cochrane, Okotoks, and Chestermere.
Why Our Inspections Background Matters
Most lighting contractors are seasonal workers or general tradespeople. Brenton holds a background in home inspections — meaning every installation is assessed through the lens of building science, not just aesthetics. We evaluate your soffit ventilation, fascia condition, and roof warranty terms before a single fastener goes in. This protects you from the water infiltration and ice damming risks that improper installations create — problems that often don't appear until the following spring.

LOCAL ADVANTAGE
Why Choose a Local Calgary Installer?
When you book through a national brand's website or a franchise, you often don't know who will show up at your door. With Calgary Permanent Lights, you always deal directly with the owner. Brenton answers the phone, Brenton provides the quote, and Brenton leads the install team — every time. There's no call centre, no middleman, no guessing.
You'll know exactly who is on your roof. That matters when we're talking about your home's fascia, soffit, and roof warranty. We're accountable — not to a head office three provinces away, but to you and to our reputation in this city.
Our warranty service and follow-up stays local. If something needs adjustment in year two or three, you're not filling out an online form and shipping a component to a head office. You call us, and we come out. Simple as that.
Calgary has a unique climate that out-of-town contractors often underestimate. The Chinook belt means dramatic temperature swings that can stress poorly installed systems. Our Alberta-spec installations account for freeze-thaw cycling, soffit ventilation standards specific to this climate zone, and the structural characteristics common to Calgary residential builds — from 1970s bungalows in Brentwood to new builds in Nolan Hill and Livingston.
Brenton's home inspections background gives us an edge no competitor can replicate: every roof we touch is evaluated for water infiltration risk, ice damming potential, and fascia integrity — before a single fastener goes in. This isn't just about lights. It's about protecting your biggest asset.
We've been doing this in Calgary for over 8 years. We know every neighbourhood, every roofline style, and every HOA quirk from Tuscany in the northwest to Mahogany in the southeast. That local knowledge means faster quotes, cleaner installs, and a result that genuinely fits your home — not a one-size-fits-all product forced onto a unique property.
