How to Find a Reputable Govee Installer
Although some home or business owners choose to install their own lights, many opt to hire a professional Govee installer to save time, reduce chance of errors, and avoid dealing with ladders and tools. Many who buy the lights with intention of installing find they are still in the box for months or even a year later! Choosing an experienced Govee installer will help your permanent light install go more smoothly and ensure you get it done in time for the holidays, but the time to schedule is now.
Here’s a helpful guide to finding a trustworthy installer before the Halloween / Christmas / Hanukkah season is in full swing.
1. Start Your Search Early
The busiest time of year for installation services is just around the corner. To avoid last-minute rushes and ensure quality work, begin your search now. Early planning allows you ample time for research, quotations, and scheduling.
2. Use the Govee Installer Directory
The Govee Installer Directory is a great resource for finding professional installers. This directory lists experienced installers who are familiar with Govee products and installation procedures. Just enter your city or zip code to find installers near you, including a profile with all their information. If one is not available near you, a form can be submitted for help in finding one. You can also search local groups on Facebook or NextDoor, or more widespread groups on Facebook or Reddit, but this will take more work on your end.
3. Check Credentials, Reviews and Experience
Verify the credentials of potential installers. Look for professionals with previous experience. Reading customer reviews can also give you insights into their reliability, workmanship, and customer service. Be sure to view pictures of prior installations, or ask to see one in person.
Ensure the installer has specific experience working with Govee products. Familiarity with the brand can save you time and reduce the likelihood of installation issues. If you are using mounting brackets or track, you can look at accessories on the Govee Installer Directory, and discuss options with your installer. Make sure they are familiar with installing using these accessories. For example, if using Bear Light Studios track, ask your installer has experience or are a Bear Light Studios PRO Installer. Most accessory suppliers do offer extensive video training on their websites if your installer has not used the mounting option before.
4. Request Estimate
Remember, the cheapest option isn’t always the best—consider reputation and quality of work as well. Remember, this is an installation that will serve you for years to come, so spending a little more may be warranted. Sometimes timing will dictate your choice, especially as the holiday season approaches and installer schedules fill. If possible, have your installer visit your location to provide and estimate so you can go over all the details and get to know each other. Sometimes this is not possible, as installers do sometimes travel quite a distance to do your installation. If this is the case, make sure you raise any questions or concerns prior to install day.
5.Confirm Availability Before the Holidays
Popular installers get booked quickly, especially during the holiday season. Confirm their availability early and schedule your appointment well in advance of Christmas to avoid last-minute stress. Ask what will happen in the case of weather delays.
7. Get your products
Make sure to buy your lights and mounting accessories so they are ready when the installer arrives! The installer should confirm how much of each item you need so there are no surprises during install. If your installer is a Govee partner, ask to order using their affiliate link. Buying your own Govee lights ensures you have the information needed in case you need warranty coverage or support.
8. Get Ready for the Holidays!
By following these steps, you can find a reputable Govee installer and have your smart lighting installed before the holiday festivities begin. This proactive approach ensures your home or business is stylish, functional, and fully prepared to impress guests during Halloween, Winter holidays and beyond.
Happy installing, and cheers to a bright and beautiful holiday season!
