Victorian brick along King Street and the side streets off it, and some of the fastest-growing subdivisions in Durham on every edge of town. Old and new sit a few blocks apart here, and they need different installs.

Bowmanville's core is some of the best nineteenth-century housing in Durham. Around it, most of the town has gone up since 2000. The two are quoted and fastened very differently.
The older streets around King, Temperance, Division and Church are brick, often with decorative trim and bargeboard on the gables, and some of it is on the municipal heritage register. We fasten into mortar joints and never the brick face, keep the track off decorative woodwork, and confirm heritage status before we quote. On a gabled Victorian, following the rakes is usually what makes the house worth lighting at all.
Northglen, Brookhill, the west end and the newer streets toward the 401 are builder elevations — brick or stone fronts, clad fascia over wood, one to three front gables — and they install quickly and cleanly. Port Darlington and the lakefront streets take real wind off Lake Ontario, so exposed elevations get tighter fastener spacing and an expansion gap at every joint as a matter of course.
Roofline on both the heritage streets and the new ones, a real commercial main street on King where facade and sign-band lighting earns its keep, and custom work on the acreage and outbuildings north of town.
Colour-matched track under the roofline holding addressable RGBW LEDs. Warm white every night, full colour when you want it, and no ladder in November.

Be the brightest thing on the block at 5pm in December. Facade, signage band and entry lighting that turns dark-at-4:30 into an advantage.

Pergolas, cabanas, docks, sport courts, fences, feature walls. If it can be lit and it survives an Ontario winter, we have probably built it.

Yes, into the mortar joints and never the brick face. Mortar is the sacrificial layer in a masonry wall and is meant to be repointed; a hole in the face is permanent and tends to spall after a few freeze-thaw cycles. We check the register and any designation before quoting so you know the approval path up front.
No. We keep the track off original decorative woodwork and follow the line of it instead, so at night the trim is what you see. On a gabled Victorian that is usually the whole point of doing it.
Very. Builder fascia is straight and the wood sub-fascia is where we expect it, so there is little fitting and the install is quick. The decision that moves the price is whether to follow the gable rakes, and we quote that both ways.
Yes. Fascia, sign bands and upper-storey accent lighting on King Street frontage run on the same hardware and app, with schedules set around your hours. If the building is heritage-listed we plan the fastening around that, the same as a house.
We will measure, hold track colours against your own fascia and leave you an itemised number. No deposit, no obligation.
