Dairies, barns, and horse property

Erath County built its name on dairy, and the milking barns, freestall barns, commodity sheds, and feed storage around Stephenville and Dublin are big metal buildings sitting on open pasture. Add horse barns, covered arenas, and hay barns on the cutting-horse and cattle places, and there's a lot of exposed roof out here.

A strike on a barn can start a fire, kill livestock, and take out pumps, controls, and milking equipment. We plan the house and outbuildings together so the grounding ties in. See farm and ranch lightning protection.

Homes in town and around Tarleton

Stephenville has older brick homes near the courthouse square and downtown, rental houses around Tarleton State University, and newer homes on acreage spreading out along US-281 and US-377. Rental owners often don't hear about a strike until a tenant reports a dead circuit.

On a residential system we place air terminals on the ridges, chimneys, and dormers, run aluminum conductors down the least visible corners, and ground them at the base of the house. See residential lightning protection and new construction lightning protection.

Churches and businesses

Churches with steeples in Stephenville, Dublin, and the small communities around them, along with ag supply stores, shops, and metal commercial buildings along the highways, all need a layout planned around the roof. See church and steeple lightning protection and commercial lightning protection.

Close to home, done to standard

We serve Stephenville and Erath County, from homes in town to horse properties and dairies out in the county. Joe Linzy is a third-generation lightning rod installer, and every system is designed with the goal of following NFPA 780 and installed to UL 96A: air terminals on the high points, a continuous conductor path, bonding for metal on the roof, and grounding designed for the site.

Spring hail is common in Erath County and can bend or loosen air terminals. If you already have a system, have it checked after a big storm or a new roof. See lightning rod repair.
