Local Properties
Typical properties we protect in Johnson County
Hay barns & equipment sheds
Hay production and cattle are common on the county's rural tracts. Stored hay is highly combustible, which makes hay barns a priority for protection.
Metal shops & workshops
Many rural homes have detached metal shops for equipment, vehicles, or a home business, and these need proper bonding and grounding.
Rural subdivisions
Newer homes on larger lots around Joshua, Godley, and Alvarado are often two-story and sit on open former farmland.
Historic churches & courthouse towns
Older brick and frame churches in Cleburne, Grandview, and Alvarado often have tall steeples and older wiring.
Weather & Ground
Weather and ground conditions in Johnson County
Johnson County straddles the transition from the Blackland Prairie on the east to the Cross Timbers on the west. The east side has heavy clay that shrinks and swells, while the west side has sandier ground, which affects how grounding is laid out.
The county sits in the Barnett Shale area, and many rural properties have natural gas wells or pipeline easements nearby. We keep grounding and trenching clear of pipelines and call 811 before digging.
A lightning protection system protects the structure; it does not replace personal lightning safety.

Johnson County lightning protection FAQ
Is it safe to install grounding near a gas well or pipeline on my property?
Grounding work is planned to stay clear of wells, pipelines, and easements. We call 811 for utility locates before any digging and can coordinate with the operator if needed.
Why does soil matter for grounding in Johnson County?
Clay on the east side and sandier soil on the west side conduct differently and move differently with moisture. We choose electrode type and layout based on your site.
Can you protect a hay barn and a shop on the same property?
Yes. Each structure gets its own air terminals, down conductors, and grounding, and we can plan them together in one visit and estimate.
Do you serve Burleson and Crowley-area properties?
We serve the Johnson County side of Burleson and nearby areas, along with Joshua, Keene, Cleburne, and the rest of the county.
