The homes we see most in Red Deer.
Red Deer is where the system comes from. Central Alberta Lighting, the authorized Gemstone dealer that supplies every installation we do and registers your manufacturer warranty, is here, and so is our crew. The newer south-east and edge neighbourhoods — Timberlands, Clearview Ridge, Vanier Woods, Inglewood, Lancaster, Anders — are two-storeys with front garages and multiple gables. The mature core — Sunnybrook, Deer Park, Bower, Morrisroe, Oriole Park, Eastview, Johnstone, Rosedale — is bungalows and split-levels with simpler fronts. Waskasoo and the river lots add the odd estate home with stone and dormers.
| Neighbourhood type | Examples | What it means for the price |
|---|---|---|
| Newer south-east and edge neighbourhoods | Timberlands · Clearview Ridge · Vanier Woods · Inglewood · Lancaster · Anders | Two-storeys over front garages, two to four gables. Usually $30–$32. Typical front 115–140 ft. |
| Mature core | Sunnybrook · Deer Park · Bower · Morrisroe · Oriole Park · Eastview · Johnstone · Rosedale | Bungalows and split-levels, long straight fascia. Sits at $28–$29. Typical front 85–110 ft. |
| River and estate lots | Waskasoo · the river valley | Stone, dormers, long runs to power. Quoted individually when they fall past $32. |
125 ft of lit roofline × $28 to $32, plus the $500 controller, before travel and GST. Our Red Deer crew is local, so travel inside the city is the smallest line on the quote; Lacombe, Blackfalds, Sylvan Lake, Penhold and Innisfail are quoted by address. Your exact number comes from three photos, free, and if your home falls outside the band we say so before we quote.
$28 to $32 a foot, installed.
Most Red Deer homes land between $28 and $32 per linear foot of lit roofline. That includes the Gemstone track and LEDs, installation by our own electricians, and both warranties. Add $500 for the controller that runs it from your phone, plus travel to your address and GST. Your exact number comes from your rooflines, which is why we ask for three photos.
- Peaks and corners. Every gable, dormer and return is a cut, a join and a run back to the track. A long, straight fascia sits at $28; a roofline with six peaks sits nearer $32.
- Height and pitch. Two‑storey eaves and steep roofs take longer and take more of the lift.
- Fascia material. Stone, stucco and metal cladding mount more slowly than wood or vinyl.
- The run to power. A short path to a sheltered outlet is simple; a long run around the house is not.
| 117 ft of roofline × $28 to $32 | $3,276 – $3,744 |
| Controller | $500 |
| Installed, before travel and GST | $3,776 – $4,244 |
Front and sides, about 150 ft: $4,700 – $5,300. A full wraparound, about 300 ft: $8,900 – $10,100, and a large wraparound sometimes needs a second controller.
A ballpark, not a quote. Your written price is free and comes from your photos.

Homes outside the typical band — three storeys, unusual access, very long runs — are quoted individually, and we say so before we quote. Four worked examples, how to measure your own roofline and the ten-year comparison with seasonal lights are in our Alberta permanent lighting cost guide.
An electrical contractor.
Not a seasonal crew.
Almost nothing that goes wrong with permanent lighting is a product failure. It is the mounting, the sealing of the penetrations, the alignment of the track along an uneven fascia, and the connection back to power. All of that is electrical work, and most permanent lighting in Alberta is sold by lighting retailers or seasonal holiday-light crews who subcontract exactly that part.
Stellar Upgrades is a licensed electrical contractor with its own crew, supervised by a Red Seal Master Electrician, working on Alberta homes since 2018. We are the people who would be in your panel for a solar array or an EV charger. We do not subcontract, and we are still here to answer the phone in year five.
