Lexington Hills went up in Eagle's mid-2000s-to-2010s building wave: vinyl double-pane casements and sliders on standard two-story rooflines, not the clerestory great-room glass going up on the custom-estate lots elsewhere in town. Being honest about it, this is Eagle's most straightforward lighting work.
Most of Lexington Hills was built during the same wave that filled in Brookwood, Ashbury and Mace River Ranch nearby. That means vinyl double-pane windows set into standard two-story construction rather than the eighteen-to-twenty-two-foot great-room glass with clerestory and transom stacks that dominates Eagle's newer custom neighborhoods. For a light install that is good news: predictable elevations, a garage return and a main eave with one gable above, seamless gutter with sound clip purchase, and no unusual reach. Roughly two to three ladder sets on a typical front rather than the six-run cut list a custom estate demands.
Lexington Hills sits inland, away from the sharp decomposed-granite grit blowing down off Willow Creek and Beacon Light in the foothills, and away from the cottonwood seed fluff along the Boise River corridor. There is no dramatic local story here and we are not going to invent one — what lands on these gutters is the standard valley mix of windblown dust, tree and grass pollen, and whatever the sprinklers throw. That is genuinely good news for lighting: fewer wind-exposure problems than the foothills corridor and a lighter fall gutter load than the river lots, which makes for a clean install and a predictable season.
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 Lexington Hills rooflines go quickly and come down in January without a trace. The one thing that does slow us down here is height — standard two-story rooflines add a ladder set above the garage return — 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.

Usually, yes, and we would rather say so plainly. A standard two-story with two or three height changes is less work than a custom elevation with six or seven gable returns and clerestory stacks. We price the roofline rather than the zip code.
Honestly, no — and that is worth knowing. No foothills wind exposure, no river-corridor cottonwood load, standard construction with sound gutters. It makes for a predictable install, which is the main reason booking early is the only real variable here.
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.
