Older neighborhoods and hillside homes
Kansas City, Kansas has steep, older neighborhoods such as Strawberry Hill, Rosedale, and Argentine with brick and frame homes, chimneys, and big trees, plus newer homes out toward Piper. We route conductors to suit each house. See residential lightning protection.
Where the Kansas and Missouri rivers meet
The city grew up where the Kansas River joins the Missouri, and the river bottoms are full of rail yards, warehouses, and industrial plants with large flat and metal roofs. Those buildings need terminals along the edges and around rooftop units, with bonding of metal equipment. See commercial lightning protection.
Churches and schools
KCK's ethnic churches, many with tall twin towers or steeples, and its schools need a system planned around their highest points. See church and steeple lightning protection.
Village West and western Wyandotte County
Commercial buildings around Village West and the Legends, along with newer homes and acreage in western Wyandotte County, sit on more open ground. See lightning protection inspection.

FAQ
Kansas City lightning protection FAQ
Is this for Kansas City, Kansas, not Missouri?
Yes. This page covers Kansas City, Kansas and Wyandotte County.
Do you serve Edwardsville and Bonner Springs?
Yes. We serve all of Wyandotte County. Call (682) 490-2850, Monday through Saturday, 7am to 7pm.
Can you protect a warehouse roof?
Yes. See commercial lightning protection.
What affects the cost of lightning protection in Kansas City, Kansas?
It depends on what we are protecting. A one-story ranch house needs far less material than a two-story home with several chimneys, and a farmstead with a shop, barn, and bins is a bigger job than the house alone. Roof type, building height, and ground conditions in Wyandotte County 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 Wyandotte County?
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.
