Hilltop homes in the Hill Country
A lot of Kerrville's nicer homes sit on the ridges and bluffs above the Guadalupe River, built for the view. That same high ground makes the house the tallest thing around, and a strike on a stone-and-metal-roof home with a tall chimney and big glass can do serious damage to the roof, the wiring, and everything plugged in.
We place air terminals on the ridges, chimneys, and roof peaks, keep conductors tight to stone corners and trim so they stay out of the view, and plan the grounding around what's under the house. On a new custom home, conductors can usually be hidden in the walls and attic. See residential lightning protection and new construction lightning protection.
Ranches, hunting lodges, and camps
Outside town, Kerr County is cedar, live oak, and limestone ranch country, with deer leases, exotic game ranches, lodges, and barns spread across the hills toward Mountain Home and Harper. Along the river near Hunt and Ingram, summer camps have cabins, dining halls, and chapels that fill with kids during peak storm season.
We plan whole properties at once (main house, guest cabins, barns, and lodges) so the grounding ties together and nothing gets left out. See farm and ranch lightning protection.
Churches, Schreiner, and downtown
Kerrville has a lot of churches, from historic stone sanctuaries near downtown to large newer campuses on the edges of town, plus the buildings around Schreiner University and the older commercial blocks along Water Street. Steeples and bell towers are the most exposed parts of any town.
We route conductors to follow the lines of the building so the system doesn't change how it looks. See church and steeple lightning protection and commercial lightning protection.
Limestone ground and how we build
Much of Kerr County is thin soil over solid limestone, and a standard ground rod often stops a foot or two down. We may use extra electrodes, angled rods, or a ground ring, and design the grounding for your site rather than guessing.
Linzy Lightning Protection is a family business, and Joe is the third generation of his family to install lightning rods. Every system is designed with the goal of following NFPA 780 and installed to UL 96A, using aluminum conductors and fittings in most cases, and copper where the roof or building materials call for it. Already have a system? After hail or a new roof, it's worth a look. See lightning protection inspection.

FAQ
Kerrville lightning protection FAQ
Do you serve Kerrville and the rest of Kerr County?
Yes. We serve Kerrville, Ingram, Hunt, Center Point, Mountain Home, Comfort, and the ranches between them. Call (682) 490-2850, Monday through Saturday, 7am to 7pm.
My house sits on a hill above the river. Does it really need protection?
Homes on high ground are some of the best candidates. Being the tallest point around makes a strike more likely, so it's worth a look.
Can you protect a hunting lodge or guest cabins on a ranch?
Yes. We plan the whole property together, including lodges, cabins, barns, and the main house, so the grounding ties in.
The ground here is solid rock. Can you still ground a system?
Yes. Rocky ground changes the approach, not whether it can be done. We use extra electrodes, angled rods, or a ground ring as needed.
Do you work on church camps along the Guadalupe?
Yes. We protect chapels, dining halls, and cabins, and schedule work around your camp season.
