Near the Colorado line
Goodland sits on I-70 near the Colorado border, in the Mountain Time zone part of Kansas, on some of the highest ground in the state. Homes and steeples have little taller around them. See residential lightning protection and church and steeple lightning protection.
Elevators and commercial roofs
Grain elevators and shop roofs are among the most exposed buildings in town. See commercial lightning protection and farm lightning protection.
Sherman County farmsteads
Wheat, corn, and cattle operations put barns, bins, and farmhouses on wide-open prairie. We plan the whole farmstead. See farm lightning protection.
Wind, dry ground, and grounding
Sherman County soil is often dry for long stretches, and dry soil does not carry current as well as moist ground. We set ground rods and conductors with that in mind, and we use fasteners that hold up to the steady High Plains wind so cable does not work loose over time.
High Plains storms
Storms build over the high ground of far western Kansas and Colorado in late spring and summer and move fast across open country, often with hail. See lightning protection inspection.

FAQ
Goodland lightning protection FAQ
Do you serve Kanorado and all of Sherman County?
Yes. We serve Goodland and Sherman County. Call (682) 490-2850, Monday through Saturday, 7am to 7pm.
Can you protect elevators?
Yes. We put air terminals on the headhouse and the tallest points, then bond the bins and legs into the grounding.
Do you protect barns and farmhouses together?
Yes. See farm lightning protection.
What affects the cost of lightning protection in Goodland?
Every system is priced for the building, so we don't quote a flat number. The main factors are roof size and height, the number of chimneys, dormers, and ridges, the roof material, how many buildings need protection, and the soil where the ground rods go. We give a free written estimate for Sherman County properties after looking at the site.
Will lightning rods make my building more likely to be hit?
No. A lightning rod does not draw lightning to a building. It gives a strike that was already going to hit the structure a planned, low-resistance path along conductors to ground, so the current is less likely to pass through framing, wiring, or plumbing.
Will lightning rods lower my insurance in Sherman County?
It is worth asking your agent. Some insurers take lightning protection into account on homes, barns, and churches, but policies differ. We can give you a written description of the system we installed for your records.
