Home at dusk with Thraxel permanent lighting tracing the roofline

Peters Township has been building for thirty years, and most of the housing is plan homes from the 1990s onward: two-story colonials and craftsman-style builds with front-facing gables, stone accents and covered entries. New siding and clean fascia are the easiest surfaces to mount color-matched track against, and gable-heavy designs give the pixels something to trace. A typical Peters home breaks into four to six zones.

The township is also thick with HOAs, and each one has its own architectural review process. We have never had the permanent system rejected by one, because in daylight there is nothing to object to. The render we produce within 48 hours of the consult is the document the committee reviews, and we include the spec sheets on components and certifications.

From Kittanning, Peters Township is about an 80-minute drive, our farthest regular South Hills stop. We pair it with Upper St. Clair and Mt. Lebanon on a single loop, and neighborhoods where two or more homes book together move to the front of that loop. The Arrowhead Trail neighborhoods and the plans off Route 19 are where most of our Peters inquiries come from.

Services

Our work in and around Peters Township

Permanent lighting

Gable-tracing RGBWW roofline systems on Peters Township's newer colonials and craftsman builds, split into zones and run from the Thraxel Lighting app.

Christmas lighting

Warm-white C9 rooflines, wrapped entry trees and lit columns for McMurray-area homes, installed in November and serviced within 24 to 48 hours all season.

Landscape lighting

Patio, firepit, pool and pathway lighting on astronomical timers, designed alongside the roofline so the front and back of the house speak the same language.

New construction, patios and the backyard after dark

Peters Township lots are built for outdoor living: covered patios, firepits, pools and the occasional pavilion. Landscape lighting turns those spaces into usable rooms after sunset, and the same controller that runs the roofline can run warm white on the patio and color on the pool. One featured residential install ran 3 zones and 68 fixtures across more than 1,000 feet of run on 330 watts.

Everything is on astronomical timers that shift with the sunset automatically, so the patio lights come on at 5 p.m. in December and 9 p.m. in June without a schedule change. Annual preventive maintenance and service plans are available if you would rather never think about it.

FAQ

Common questions from Washington County

Does Thraxel install lighting in Peters Township and McMurray?

Yes. Thraxel installs permanent roofline lighting, seasonal Christmas lighting and landscape lighting throughout Peters Township, including McMurray and the plans off Route 19. The company is based in Kittanning, about 65 miles and an 80-minute drive away, and schedules Peters Township as part of a South Hills route with Upper St. Clair and Mt. Lebanon.

How do I get HOA approval for lighting in a Peters Township plan?

Submit Thraxel's render mock-up and component specifications to your architectural review committee. The render shows your actual house with the proposed lighting, and the spec sheets document UL, ETL and CUL certification and the color-matched aluminum track that makes the system effectively invisible by day. Thraxel's permanent system has passed every HOA review it has been part of, and the company helps prepare the packet.

Can the same system light my patio and pool?

Yes. Thraxel designs landscape lighting for patios, firepits, pool decks, pathways, trees and fence lines, and it can share control with the roofline through the app. Fixtures range from warm white to full RGB color changing, and all zones run on astronomical timers that adjust to sunset through the year. Annual preventive maintenance and service plans are offered for homeowners who want the system checked each season.

Is permanent lighting a good choice for a new-construction home?

Usually, yes. New siding and straight fascia are the easiest surfaces for color-matched track, and gable-heavy designs common in Peters Township give the pixels clear lines to follow. If you plan to add a porch or an addition within a year, it is worth telling Thraxel at the consultation so the zones can be planned around it. Financing at 0 percent APR for up to 24 months is available to qualifying buyers.
