Step one is a free consultation
Nothing gets mounted until the design is settled. That visit covers which edges to run, where the power is, and how you want to use it. The consultation is free and it does not commit you to anything.
Why the design comes first
Your house has its own lines, so the plan gets drawn around it. The design should work with the house, following the roof edge, the gables and the entry. Businesses get the same treatment across storefronts, entries and building corners.
On the day
Installation is professional, meaning the ladders, the track and the wiring are theirs to deal with. The channel goes up along the planned lines and is color matched to the house. Power, controller and phone setup are part of the job, not left on your kitchen table in a box. Before the crew leaves, you get shown how to run it, so you can actually use it that evening.

Beyond that you can go about your day.
After the system is up
From there the system is yours to run. Most people land on one white they like for ordinary nights, then change it when there is a reason to.
