Permanent lighting in Camas
Prune Hill is why we carry Deep Pebble Track. The two-story homes built there from the late 1990s on have three, four, sometimes five gables facing the street, rooflines of 260 to 340 feet, and elevations high enough that a standard pebble from the road looks polite rather than lit. Down the hill, the 1920s mill-era homes off Fourth Avenue and around Crown Park are single-story with a front gable, and a full install is under 160 feet. Camas homeowners tend to ask two questions first: what does it cost per foot, and will the HOA sign off. We answer both here.
From $32 per foot, controller included. Free measure anywhere in Camas, usually within three days.
Gables add up faster than you think
A gable is two sloped runs meeting at a peak, so a 24-foot-wide gable adds about 30 feet of lit roofline, not 24. A Prune Hill house with four gables and a 60-foot front eave can measure 200 feet on the front elevation alone. That is why our Camas estimates run higher than the Google Maps footprint suggests; at the measure we tape every run so the quoted number is the install number.

Homes and rooflines here
Most Prune Hill and Lacamas Shores homes are in HOAs with an architectural committee. Channel in a fascia-matched color, warm-white nightly and holiday colors on a schedule is the combination that gets approved; we send the product sheet and a photo of the track color with your application. Fascia is usually painted wood or composite, both fine for 3M VHB. Newer builds around Lacamas Lake often have aluminum drip edge, so the magnetic package rarely applies here.
HOAs: common; our approval packet is built for it. The HOA guide and template letter.
What it costs here
Typical Camas homes we measure run 180 to 320 feet of lit roofline. That range in the two packages we recommend most here, controller included.
| Package | Rate | 180 ft | 320 ft | ≈ Monthly at 320 ft |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Deep Pebble Track | $37/ft | $6,660 | $11,840 | $1,019/mo |
| C9 Track | $32/ft | $5,760 | $10,240 | $881/mo |
Monthly is a 12-month, 5.9% APR example. Running cost on Clark Public Utilities at 8.79¢/kWh: about $1.22 a month for 320 pebbles at four hours a night.
