Highland is a single master-planned development off Substation Road on Emmett's north side, building out in phases toward roughly 240 lots with its own architectural standards. Brand-new vinyl glass, two-story great rooms, and construction dust still settling on lots that have not grown grass yet.
Highland puts bigger lots, uniform new construction and HOA-maintained entries in a town otherwise defined by pre-1940 cores and 1970s ranch belts. For lighting that means the work looks like a Treasure Valley subdivision job: seamless aluminum gutter with sound clip purchase, architectural shingle, and elevations that go up rather than out. Tall great-room glass and transom stacks above the garage push the peak past a standard extension ladder on many plans, so the quote is really measuring height changes and roof sections rather than raw footage. Single-level plans in the same phases price quite differently, which is why we look at the elevation instead of the address.
Building out in phases means some of your neighbors have moving trucks in the driveway while others still have a framing crew next door. That is normal, and it means install scheduling occasionally works around site traffic — worth a mention at booking if your street is still active. The architectural standards that make the community consistent may also carry guidance on seasonal display timing, which does not change the price but does change the schedule. Tell us your dates and we will book inside them rather than finding out afterward.
Every attachment point is a plastic clip sized to your gutter profile or shingle edge. Nothing gets stapled, nailed or glued, which matters more on newer construction than people expect: fiber cement and LP-style trim hold paint well until something punctures them, and a fastener hole in a factory finish is both a warranty conversation and a water path. Seamless aluminum K-style gutter takes a clean clip, so installs on Highland rooflines go quickly and come down in January without a trace. The one thing that does slow us down here is height — two-story great rooms and transom stacks above the garage push the peak past ladder reach — and that is ladder time, not damage risk.
One per-roofline quote covers commercial-grade C9 or mini LED strands supplied and cut for your house, clip-only install, mid-season fixes at no charge, January takedown, and off-season storage with the set inspected before next season. Because the set is cut to your elevation, year two is faster and cheaper in labor than year one, and the lights stay ours to maintain rather than yours to store. The honest version: if you are in one of the single-story plans here with an easy front eave, DIY is a fair call. The two-story elevations with a stacked entry gable are where a ladder day turns into a real job.
Book in October or the first week of November. Installs go cleanest on a dry roof above freezing, routes fill by mid-November, and early bookings are lit by Thanksgiving. Late deciders still get installed through December. In January we come back, take everything down, and store the set — inspected and repaired in the off-season rather than discovered dead on the roof next November. Because the strands are cut to your elevation and labeled, the second season goes on noticeably faster than the first.

Highland carries its own architectural standards, so it is worth a look at your own documents for display timing. They rarely restrict a clip-only seasonal install, but they can affect when it goes up and comes down. Give us your window and we will schedule inside it.
On a single-level plan with a reachable front eave, that is a fair call and we will say so. On the two-story plans with a stacked entry gable it is a real ladder day, in November, and then again in January. What you buy from us is the cut-to-fit run, the mid-season fix, the takedown, and storage so nothing lives in your garage.
We supply them. Every install uses commercial-grade C9 or mini LED strands custom-cut to your roofline. We do not hang store-bought strands — a roof in December is the wrong place to find out a four-year-old set has a dead section, and supplying the lights ourselves is what lets us include mid-season fixes in the quote.
No. Every attachment point is a plastic clip matched to what you actually have — gutter lip, shingle edge or ridge. Nothing is stapled, nailed, screwed or glued. When the lights come down in January there is no evidence they were ever up, which is the whole standard.
Call or text (208) 453-6760 and we come fix it at no charge. That is part of the job, not a separate service call. Commercial-grade strands fail far less than store strings, but wind, squirrels and one crushed bulb still happen — you should not spend a Saturday diagnosing it on a ladder.
We come back, take everything down, and store your set through the off-season, where it gets inspected and repaired before next year. No bins in the garage, no untangling next November, and no second invoice — takedown and storage are already in the quote.
