"John Sherlock and his wife Corrine called within 1/2 hour of looking for Lightning Rod installers. He was available and was over to talk with us within one hour. He sent all his credentials and licenses and insurance coverages of his business and they came over the next morning and completed the installation extremely fast. He gave a fantastic offer, and lifetime warranty coverage and will even come over and take down system when we replace the roof and place back up at no charge! His wife even saw some plants we had not put in the garden still sitting in containers, and offered and planted them in the spaces we wanted, just to help out. Very friendly, helpful, professional, extremely knowledgeable and even suggested adding Lakeland Electrics Surge Protector protection they provide to go along with the Lightning rods. Yes would have them again on any home anytime."

"We replaced the original roof on our house. I expressed my concerns about re-installation of the lightening rods to my roofer. We have had at least three direct hits since they were originally installed in 2013. My roofer called William who was very helpful. William offered to come out an make sure everything was 100% after re-installation. He came the day after I called and I'm glad he did. While the reinstall was the best he had seen (his words) there were issues after 5 year and 3 strikes that needed addressed. He fixed those and now I have a new roof and I am certain the lightening rods will work as intended. Highly recommend this company."

"I needed an electrician to change a circuit breaker. Before the electrician arrived I had removed the external panel. All he did was loosen a screw on the circuit breaker, remove it and install the new breaker. It took all of 15 seconds to complete. For this he charged $205.00. He didn't even replace the panel cover."

"Extremely Disappointed – Unprofessional and Unreliable Service I don’t usually leave reviews, but after my experience with this electrical company, I feel it’s necessary to warn others. From the start, working with this contractor has been nothing but frustrating and disappointing. This company was hired as a subcontractor during the construction of my new home. One of the tasks was to terminate several Cat5 cables—a simple, straightforward job that should’ve been completed without issue. When they sent an electrician out in December, he managed to complete two of the cable terminations but said he needed help accessing the remaining cables. Instead of following through, the company avoided responsibility and continuously made excuses, claiming the job was “outside their scope” despite already starting the work. At no point was it communicated to me that terminating the remaining cables would be my responsibility. In fact, the same company completed other terminations throughout the house without issue. What’s worse is that after waiting months for a resolution, I—someone with no electrical experience—was able to locate and make the cables accessible myself. If I could manage that, there’s no reason a professional couldn’t have done the same. On top of all this, I was given two completely different price quotes for the same job. Initially, I was told the first hour would be waived and subsequent hours would be billed at a fair rate. Later, that rate increased without explanation. When I asked about the conflicting quotes, instead of providing clarity, the contractor refused to continue the work altogether. Let me be clear: This issue was never the homeowner’s responsibility—it was a clear lack of communication, follow-through, and professionalism on their part. If you’re considering hiring this company, think twice. They’ve shown a complete disregard for their responsibilities and zero concern for customer satisfaction. I would not recommend them to anyone."

While a lightning protection system reduces the risk of damage to your home, there are some drawbacks to keep in mind. The system requires regular cleaning and inspections to operate correctly. Without proper maintenance, it might malfunction during a storm, leaving your home vulnerable. Additionally, the installation cost and the appearance of rods on your roof may be concerns for you.
No, copper doesn't attract lightning. Lightning naturally strikes the tallest point in an area, regardless of the material. Copper is used in lightning rods because it's an excellent conductor of electricity. When lightning strikes the rod, the copper safely channels the electrical current through cables into a grounding system buried in the earth, effectively protecting your home from damage.
The number of lightning rods your home needs depends on its size and the type of protection system you choose. For example, a 3,000-square-foot home requires six to eight copper or aluminum lightning rods to ensure full coverage. Alternatively, a single Early Streamer Emission (ESE) air terminal system can protect the entire home. It's best to consult a UL-certified professional to determine the exact number of rods needed for optimal protection.
