Summer storms build over the Everglades almost every afternoon and roll straight across Boca's golf communities, waterfront estates, and custom homes. We've protected properties like yours since 1950.
Florida is the lightning capital of the United States, and Boca Raton sits right in the strike belt. WB Lightning Rods protects Boca Raton properties the way we've protected homes and farms since 1950: complete lightning protection systems for your home and farm, installed by our experienced crew and personally supervised by the owner on every job.
Boca's housing stock is exactly what lightning looks for: tall custom homes in Royal Palm Yacht & Country Club, The Sanctuary, and the western communities, with tile and metal roofs, cupolas, chimneys, pool cages, and mature royal palms and banyans standing taller than the rooflines around them. A direct strike can fire a roof, blow out electrical panels, and destroy pool equipment, gate systems, elevators, and smart-home electronics in a single flash — and a nearby strike's surge can do nearly as much damage without ever touching the house.
Air terminals at the high points intercept the strike, copper or aluminum conductors carry it down, and a deep grounding network puts the energy in the earth — away from your framing, wiring, and family.
Most Boca electronics losses never involve a direct hit. Layered surge protection defends panels, pool and spa equipment, gate operators, security, and home automation against spikes riding in on the lines.
Boca's specimen palms, banyans, and live oaks can be protected with their own air terminals and grounding — a struck tree can fall on the house or send ground current straight to its foundation.
One company for the whole property — homes, farms, barns, trees, and every building in between, anywhere in Florida.
Complete lightning rod systems for single-family homes — the work WB has done since 1950.
Low-profile systems designed around fine architecture, tile, and metal roofs.
Whole-property designs protecting the residence, dock, and boat lift — every structure on the water covered.
Barns, stables, arenas, and run-in sheds protected along with the residence.
Agricultural buildings, equipment sheds, and hay storage — the structures lightning finds first.
Multi-building packages for farms that price the whole property as one engineered network.
Specimen palms, oaks, and banyans protected with their own terminals and grounding.
Neighbors who install together save together — neighborhood discounts on multi-home packages.
Already have a system? We inspect it, repair storm damage, and bring older installations up to current NFPA 780 guidelines.
Building new? We design and install protection while the home or barn is going up — cleaner cable runs, nothing retrofitted after the fact.
Every WB system is built to NFPA 780 guidelines using UL-listed materials — and designed for Boca Raton specifically, not copied from a template.
Low-profile rods along ridgelines, cupolas, and chimneys — discreet on fine homes, placed where lightning seeks first.
Copper or aluminum cable routed cleanly along rooflines and downspouts, matched to your roof and architecture.
Deep-driven ground rods sized to South Florida's sandy soil, bonded together.
Pool cages, metal roofing elements, and nearby metal systems bonded in to prevent dangerous side-flashes.
Specimen palms, banyans, and live oaks protected with their own air terminals and grounding, designed around the landscape.
When several homes on the same Boca Raton street or in the same community install together, our multi-home packages lower the cost for every homeowner — the same neighborhood approach we've used to protect whole streets elsewhere in Florida. It's a natural fit for Boca's gated and club communities, and we can provide system documentation for HOA and architectural review.
West of the city, properties with barns, pole barns, equipment sheds, and equestrian facilities get whole-property designs: the residence and every agricultural building as one bonded network, with multi-building packages for farms. New construction or retrofit, systems can be installed before or after roofing — and WB serves all of Florida statewide, so Boca is one stop on a route that covers the whole Palm Beach corridor and Wellington's equestrian estates.

No. Rods don't attract strikes from miles away — they intercept a strike that was already coming to your roofline and give it a safe path to ground.
We use low-profile terminals and route conductors discreetly, including behind downspouts. On custom homes we plan the layout with the architecture in mind before a single hole is drilled.
Yes — metal structures near the house are bonded into the system, and surge protection covers the pumps, heaters, and controls that strikes most often destroy.
