Homes on the hills above the Kansas River
Lawrence sits on hills above the Kansas River, with the University of Kansas on Mount Oread and older neighborhoods near downtown and Massachusetts Street. Many homes are tall, steep-roofed, and surrounded by mature trees. Neat conductor routing keeps the system from changing the look of an older house. See residential lightning protection and tree lightning protection.
Campus, downtown, and church roofs
University buildings, downtown storefronts, and church steeples each need their own layout. We plan around towers and parapets first and bond rooftop metal into the system. See commercial lightning protection and church and steeple lightning protection.
Farms toward Eudora and Baldwin City
Douglas County still has cattle and crop farms, orchards, and acreage homes with barns, shops, and grain bins on open ground, especially to the south toward Baldwin City. See farm lightning protection.
Clinton Lake and the river valley
Storms moving through the Kansas River valley and over Clinton Lake bring lightning, hail, and wind to homes on open lots and lake-area acreage. A check after a big storm is a good idea. See lightning protection inspection.

FAQ
Lawrence lightning protection FAQ
Do you serve Eudora, Baldwin City, and Lecompton?
Yes. We serve Lawrence and Douglas County. Call (682) 490-2850, Monday through Saturday, 7am to 7pm.
Can you protect an older home near downtown?
Yes. We plan neat routing that respects the building.
Can you install during construction?
Yes. See new construction lightning protection.
What affects the cost of lightning protection in Lawrence?
The size and shape of the roof, how tall the building is, how many chimneys and roof peaks it has, and how many separate buildings you want covered drive most of the cost. Rocky or dry ground can add grounding work. We look at the property and give you a free written estimate before any work starts.
Will lightning rods make my building more likely to be hit?
No. Lightning goes where it goes; a protection system just controls what happens when it arrives. Air terminals on the roof catch the strike, and conductors and ground rods carry it to earth so it does less harm to the building.
Will lightning rods lower my insurance in Douglas County?
Policies differ, so check with your agent before you count on a discount. What we can do is give you a written record of what was installed and where, which is useful for your insurer and for anyone who inspects the system later.
