Do you want a sharp vibrant Govee Pattern and to have the lights hidden during the day?

Then don't worry about looking to see if you have fascia!

When you desire sharp Govee pattern as seen in the picture below, we will need to install fascia on the gutter and the peaks regardless if you have it or not.

You can still check to see if you have fascia but while you're at it, measure the distance it sits away from the wall. If it is not within 2-4 inches (Govee's recommendations) then it will not have a sharp effect.

For this option, we will need to know if you have fascia behind your gutters.

If your home has fascia then we can install directly on the underside of your exististing fascia.

The price will not change from what is on the service request form, although it won't have the sharp Govee pattern. Read no further!

If your home does not have fascia then we will only need to add fascia on the portions which do not have it, which is 99.99% of the time only on the gutters. That will increase the originally quoted price but is still your cheapest option for Govee Lights. You can also choose to upgrade the peaks to make the lights uniform but that is not required.

Determine if you need or want Fascia Installation:

Fascia is the wood parallel to the gutter, extending its entire length.

If your home lacks consistent fascia (the backside of the gutters may not have fascia) for mounting the lights,
OR
If you prefer a sharper Govee pattern + hidden during the day (shown in 02) we may need to install fascia, which could incur additional costs.

Below is an example of lights installed on your existing fascia if applicable.

Below is an example of this installation method at night.

Installing on existing fascia of peaks and adding fascia only to necessary portions

The peaks of your home will almost always have wooden trim for mounting the lights. However, you may also prefer the spacing between the lights and the wall to be within Govee’s recommendations, so we can add fascia here as well to achieve a consistent sharp Govee pattern.

Below is a picture of the lights installed on existing fascia on peaks and adding fascia to the gutters only.

Below is a picture of this installation type at night.

High-Definition Govee Pattern Installation:

If you desire a high-definition Govee pattern, and you don't want to see your lights during the day, fascia may also be required if your homes existing fascia is outside of Govee’s recommended distance (2-4 in from the wall).

Below is an example of a house that got fascia installed on the gutters, and the peaks.
