Leverage Existing Customers

Turn your existing clients into repeat customers and create additional revenue streams effortlessly.
Minimal Expertise Required
Our DIY kits are designed with simplicity in mind. They are user-friendly and require no advanced electrical expertise.

How much can I charge?
At ShawTech Lighting, we believe in making permanent holiday lighting affordable and accessible for both businesses and homeowners. When you partner with us, you have the flexibility to set your own pricing structure. While many companies charge between $25 to $40 per linear foot for installation depending on the difficulty and time of year, we encourage you to consider a more budget-friendly approach. We suggest pricing your installations at $15 to $25 per linear foot. This approach not only offers significant savings to your customers but also aligns with our commitment to affordability. However, it is ultimately your decision to choose how much to charge.
Consider Your Expenses
When setting your pricing, don't forget to account for your own business expenses, including the cost of our DIY kits, labor, equipment, and any additional overhead. Calculating your expenses and revenue projections will help you determine the most suitable pricing strategy for your specific situation.
Profit Potential
By offering permanent Christmas lighting installations at competitive rates, you can tap into a broader customer base, attract repeat business, and generate a steady stream of revenue. It's an opportunity to maximize your profit potential while delivering exceptional value to your clients.
Our Story
In 2021, we started on a mission to change the world of permanent holiday lighting. Fueled by a desire to provide affordable and hassle-free solutions, we founded ShawTech Lighting.

We recognized the need for a better way, and ShawTech Lighting was born.

Frequently Asked Questions
Here are some of the more common questions we get about our kits from potential installation partners.
Once approved as a partner, discounts are applied automatically based on your installer account status when you log in and check out. You do not need to use promo or coupon codes.
You can check out our installation instructions here. The video at the beginning will give you a good overview of how to install our kits.
Most of our customers take 8-12 hours to install a kit on their house. However, you will be installing multiple kits and will get faster over time. For a 100ft roofline, you can probably get it down to 4-8 hours with two people.
No. Every house is different and the biggest factor on determining if the kit is suitable for a particular house is the style of roof. Prior to accepting any job, you need to verify that you can install the lights on that home to begin with. Think about how you would attach the lights and where you could install the controller box.
e do not provide formal installation training beyond our written and video documentation. Most customers are able to complete installs using these resources, but support is always available if questions come up.
Installation Partners receive email support for product, installation, and troubleshooting questions. If an issue cannot be resolved by email, our team may assist using screenshots, videos, or scheduled calls, depending on the situation.

We are a small team, but will do our best to provide the support you need.
The biggest danger is falling off a ladder or roof. Do as much of the wiring as possible on the ground, because splicing wires on a ladder is neither fun nor safe.
When splicing any wires, make sure the controller box is unplugged to avoid damaging the kit or electrocuting yourself.
There is very little maintenance required. We have had customers using their lights for 3+ years without any maintenance required.
The most common maintenance required is to clear out any dust build up around the vents on the controller box so that it can get the airflow required to stay cool.
It's uncommon for LEDs to fail early, but if that happens it's a simple process of cutting it out and splicing in a new one.
All products include a 3 year warranty against defects, no matter who installs them.
Yes — products may be returned within 30 days of purchase for a refund of the purchase price less a 7.5% restocking fee. If any cables, LEDs, or aluminum channel have been cut or modified, additional deductions may apply. All returns require prior written authorization.
