Steeples, gyms, and campuses that serve and shelter your community.
Why It Matters
Texas weather doesn't wait
Texas has several storm climates at once: Gulf moisture fuels frequent storms along the coast, spring storms sweep across North Texas and the Plains, and West Texas sees lightning over dry, open ground. A properly designed system doesn't stop lightning; it gives a strike a safe path to ground.
A lightning protection system protects the structure; it does not replace personal lightning safety. When thunder roars, go indoors.
Reduce fire risk
A direct strike can ignite roofing, framing, and attic materials. A protection system routes that energy away from combustible areas.
Protect electronics & equipment
Lightning-induced surges can damage appliances, computers, well pumps, and control systems, even from nearby strikes.
Guard tall & isolated structures
Barns, steeples, hilltop homes, and buildings on open ground are more exposed and benefit most from protection.
Designed for local conditions
Soil, terrain, wind, and coastal air all differ across Texas, so each system is designed for where it's built.

FAQ
Common questions about lightning protection
Does a lightning rod attract lightning to my building?
No. Lightning protection systems don't attract lightning or make a strike more likely. They provide a safe, low-resistance path so that if lightning does strike, the current travels to ground instead of through your structure.
What parts of Texas do you serve?
We serve five regions: Dallas-Fort Worth, Greater Houston and the Gulf Coast, Austin and the Hill Country, Midland-Odessa and the Permian Basin, and Amarillo and the Panhandle. Visit a regional page to see the cities and counties we cover.
Do I still need surge protection if I have lightning rods?
Yes. Lightning rods protect the structure from a direct strike, while surge protective devices help protect wiring and electronics from surges traveling on power, phone, or data lines. A complete system includes both.
Can you add protection to an existing building?
Yes. Most systems are installed on existing homes, barns, and commercial buildings. We can also coordinate with builders and roofers on new construction and re-roofing.
How much does a lightning protection system cost?
Cost depends on the size, shape, and roof type of the building, plus soil and grounding conditions, which vary a lot across Texas. We provide a free on-site estimate so you get an accurate number for your property.
