Permanent Lighting in San Antonio
San Antonio lights for Christmas, Fiesta and every Spurs game in between. We're Inception Lighting. We install permanent color-changing LED lights on San Antonio homes, and they stay up all year long. Our company is based in Denton, and San Antonio is one of the places we travel to for installs. By day the lights are tough to spot. At night you open the app and the house lights up in the colors you choose.
Control with the click of a button
With BlueHopper, you have the superpower of controlling lights! Available on both iOS & Android, BlueHopper is an incredibly user-friendly app with all the powerful features, even for those who are not tech-savvy.
Start by choosing a preset design, or easily customize your own and schedule it. It's that easy!

Why San Antonio homeowners are trading in the ladder
Most people we talk to are tired of the holiday light routine. Pull the tubs out of the garage, find the dead strand, and give up a weekend you'd rather spend at the River Walk with the kids. After New Year's, you do it all again in reverse.
With permanent lights, the work happens once. After that you're running the show from the BlueHopper app.
This city knows how to do holiday lights. The River Walk glows all season, and the Ford Holiday River Parade and Lighting Ceremony kicks things off on the water. The H-E-B tree in Travis Park lights up every night, and UIW's Light the Way draws crowds to campus. Over in Windcrest, whole streets decorate for the Light-Up, and families drive through with a map of the homes taking part. Your own house can be part of the fun without a single trip up a ladder.
Made for how San Antonio celebrates
- Spurs nights. Silver and black on the house for home games, and keep it going all through a playoff run.
- Fiesta every April. Go bright and colorful for the Battle of Flowers Parade and the Fiesta Flambeau.
- Christmas colors from the night the River Walk lights come on until New Year's Day.
- Red, white and blue for the Fourth. Orange and purple for Halloween. Warm candle-like whites for Christmas Eve.
- Other nights, a clean white for the porch and driveway.
You can schedule things up to twelve months ahead, so Fiesta and Christmas can both be set in one go. Pick from 16 million colors, or dial in any white from 1800K to 6800K.
Homes we light in San Antonio
San Antonio has old neighborhoods with real history and newer master-planned communities on the north and northwest sides.
- King William, with its elegant historic homes close to galleries and restaurants. Owners there want the house to look like itself during the day, and the lights stay out of sight until evening.
- Monte Vista near Trinity University, known for grand architecture, and Alamo Heights with its established streets. Soft white or classic Christmas colors look right at home on these houses.
- Stone Oak up north, a master-planned community with lots of family homes. Coming home from practice to a house that's already lit is a nice way to end the day.
- Alamo Ranch on the northwest side, along with Stillwater Ranch and Shavano Park. Every holiday gets its own look, and nobody climbs on the roof.

How it works
- Request your free estimate. Tell us about your home on the Free Estimate page.
- Get your custom quote. Price depends on how many feet of roofline you want lit, the number of stories, and which sides of the house you want covered.
- Pick your install date. Install dates are booked in the order estimates are approved, so the earlier you request, the more dates you'll have before Christmas.
- Light it up. Download the app and run the house from your phone, with presets for every holiday or your own custom designs.
Lighting homes since 2012
Inception has been around since 2012, and in that time we've finished more than 2,000 lighting projects for homes, businesses and cities. We're headquartered in Denton, at 723 S Interstate 35, Suite 226, and our crews make the trip to San Antonio to install.
San Antonio permanent lighting FAQ
Can I put the house in Spurs silver and black?
You sure can. Save it as a preset and set it to come on for game nights, then switch back to your everyday white the next morning.
Can I do something special for Fiesta?
Yes. Build a bright, colorful design in the app and schedule it for Fiesta week. You can even set it up at Christmas and forget about it until April.
I'm in Windcrest. Can my lights be ready for the Light-Up?
They can, as long as they're installed before it starts. Install dates go in the order estimates are approved, so the earlier you send your request, the better your odds.
What will it cost?
That depends on how much roofline you want lit, how many stories your house has, and which sides you want covered. Your free estimate has the real number.
Do the lights show during the day?
Hardly at all. The track is color-matched to your trim, so it blends in with the house.
Is there a warranty?
There is, a 5-year manufacturer's warranty on the lights.
Do you install outside San Antonio?
Yes. We install all around San Antonio and well beyond. Include your address when you request an estimate.
