Ground & Weather
Ground and weather conditions in Bossier Parish
Bossier City sits on the east bank of the Red River, with silty and clay bottomland soils near the river and Red Chute Bayou, and rolling red clay and sandy-loam hills to the north and east. Bottomland clay usually gives ground rods good contact; sandy hill soils can need deeper rods.
Spring storm lines often cross from Texas into Bossier Parish, and summer thunderstorms are frequent. Tall casino and hotel buildings, church steeples, and new two-story homes on open lots are among the most exposed.
A lightning protection system protects the structure; it does not replace personal lightning safety.

FAQ
Bossier City lightning protection FAQ
Do you serve Haughton, Benton, and Plain Dealing?
Yes. We serve Bossier City and all of Bossier Parish. Call (682) 490-2850, Monday through Saturday, 7am to 7pm.
Can you add lightning protection to a new home?
Yes. Building lightning protection in during framing lets us hide conductors in the walls and attic and set grounding before the yard is finished. We work with builders around Bossier City and can price from your plans. See new construction lightning protection.
Do you protect farm buildings?
Yes. Barns, equipment sheds, bins, and farmhouses on open ground are some of the most exposed buildings in Bossier Parish. We look at every structure on the place, then lay out terminals, conductors, and grounding so each one is covered. See farm lightning protection.
Can you work with my builder on a new home in Benton or Haughton?
Yes. We work with builders during framing so conductors can be concealed, and we can price the system from your plans. See new construction lightning protection.
Lightning struck my house in Bossier City. What should I do now?
Safety first: if there is any smoke, burning smell, or fire, leave the house and call 911, and let firefighters check the attic and walls. Then document the damage with photos, report it to your insurer, and have a qualified electrician and, if needed, a roofer look at the house. When the repairs are planned, call us. We serve Bossier Parish and can design a lightning protection system for the roof before the next storm season.
What affects the cost of lightning protection in Bossier City?
It depends on what we are protecting. A one-story brick ranch needs far less material than a two-story raised home with several gables, and a farm with a shop, barn, and bins is a bigger job than the house alone. Roof type, building height, and ground conditions in Bossier Parish also matter. Estimates are free and in writing.
Will lightning rods make my building more likely to be hit?
That is a common myth. Rods do not pull lightning out of the sky or make a strike more likely. If lightning does hit a protected building, the system carries the current over the outside of the building and safely into the ground instead of through the structure.
Will lightning rods lower my insurance in Bossier Parish?
Ask your insurance agent; it varies by company and policy. Some carriers look favorably on lightning protection, especially for churches, barns, and high-value homes. We provide a written description of the finished system you can share with them.
