Weather & Ground
Weather and ground conditions in Waller County
Most of Waller County is flat coastal prairie with heavy clay soils that stay wet after rain and crack in summer drought. The Brazos River forms the county's western edge, with sandier bottomland soils near the river.
Gulf moisture fuels frequent summer thunderstorms, and on flat open prairie a barn or house is often the tallest point around.
A lightning protection system protects the structure; it does not replace personal lightning safety.

Waller County lightning protection FAQ
Do you protect large warehouses near Brookshire?
Yes. Flat-roof commercial buildings need air terminals across the roof and at rooftop units, with down conductors spaced around the perimeter.
Can a horse barn and arena share one system?
Connected structures can be designed together, while separate buildings each need their own grounding. We'll plan the layout on site.
Does wet clay soil help grounding?
Moist clay often conducts well, but it cracks and dries in summer. We design grounding to perform in both wet and dry seasons.
Do you serve the Waller County side of Katy?
Yes, along with Brookshire, Pattison, Waller, Hempstead, and Prairie View.
