Pennsylvania’s #1 Lightning Protection Service
Bucks County runs from the Delaware River bluffs at New Hope and Washington Crossing to the farm fields around Doylestown and Buckingham. River-valley storms build over the water and hit the high banks first. We protect the whole property: house, barns, shops, and outbuildings, every building covered.
Central Bucks County is two landscapes in one. Along the river, New Hope, Solebury, Upper Makefield, and Washington Crossing hold older stone houses and newer homes on wooded bluffs above the Delaware, where the terrain funnels summer storms right up the valley. Inland, Buckingham, Doylestown, and Newtown are working farm country and estate country side by side — horse farms, bank barns, and big homes on open ground with nothing taller around them for a quarter mile.
WB Lightning Rods protects Bucks County the way we’ve protected Pennsylvania properties since 1950: complete systems built to NFPA 780 guidelines with UL-listed materials made in the USA, designed for the property — discreet and low-profile on historic stone homes, whole-farm packages on the farm country. Every system is installed by our experienced crew and personally supervised by the owner, and many quotes are built from satellite imagery, so getting protected starts with one call.
Homes on the high banks above the Delaware stand over the valley floor, chimneys and ridgelines over the tree line. When a storm line runs the river, the bluff-top houses are the first things it meets.
Bucks County’s stone farmhouses and river-town homes were built with massive chimneys and steep roofs — beautiful, and exactly the profile lightning seeks. Low-profile systems protect them without changing how they look.
From Buckingham to Doylestown, barns and silos stand alone in open fields. Those are the structures lightning finds first — and the ones a farm can least afford to lose.
One company for the whole property — river homes, historic houses, farms, and barns, anywhere in New Hope & Bucks County.
Complete lightning rod systems for houses of every size, designed around your roofline — the work WB has done since 1950.
Low-profile systems designed around fine architecture — stone, slate, and standing-seam metal roofs — with clean runs along rooflines and downspout lines.
Discreet, low-profile systems for older farmhouses and historic homes — clean runs along rooflines and downspout lines, protection you have to look for to see.
Barns, stables, and arenas protected along with the residence — horses, hay, and tack, all covered.
Agricultural buildings, equipment shops, and hay storage — the tallest structures on the farm, and the ones lightning finds first.
We protect all of your buildings — main house, barns, shops, guest houses, and outbuildings — with a lifetime of protection. Multi-building packages price the whole property together, so protecting everything costs less than protecting buildings one at a time.
Mature oaks, maples, and specimen trees protected with their own terminals and grounding, so a shade tree never becomes the strike path to your roof.
Neighbors who install together save together — neighborhood discounts on multi-home packages for your street, road, or lake shore.
Complete installations and repairs — that’s the work. Already have a system? We inspect it, repair storm damage and wear, and bring older installations up to current NFPA 780 standards. We make old systems great again.
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 made in the USA — and designed for Bucks County specifically, not copied from a template.
Placed along rooflines, chimneys, cupolas, barn ridgelines, and silos — the high points lightning seeks first on Bucks County properties.
Heavy conductor cables routed cleanly along rooflines and downspout lines, carrying strike energy safely down and away from the structure.
Deep-driven ground rods at each structure, sized for local soils — from river-valley ground to the rocky diabase ridges of Solebury — so strike energy disperses safely into the earth.
Metal roofing, gutters, water lines, and electrical services bonded to the protection system, so stray current can’t side-flash between metal parts.
Barns, pole barns, equipment shops, guest houses, and garages incorporated into the property plan — no building left exposed.
A Bucks County property is often more than the house — a bank barn, a carriage house, a shop, a guest cottage down the lane. Our multi-building packages price the whole property as one design, all of it protected, which costs less than protecting buildings one at a time and leaves no gap between them. Well pumps, gate operators, and outbuilding power all ride the same service, and the design accounts for every one of them.
The same thinking applies road by road and farm to farm. Neighbors who install together earn neighborhood discounts on multi-home packages, and because WB serves all of Pennsylvania statewide, a New Hope home and a second property anywhere in the state are one call, one company. Many quotes are built from satellite imagery, so the process can start with one call.
Real WB installations — homes, carriage houses, and farm buildings protected by our own crew.
Many quotes are built from satellite imagery of your home — fast, accurate, and no obligation. Call 1-800-557-9037.
Our experienced crew installs the system, and every installation is personally supervised by the owner, start to finish.
Lifetime warranty on parts and labor, with a 5-year maintenance check at no cost. Then you watch Pennsylvania storms the calm way.
No. We design low-profile systems for historic homes — slim terminals along the ridgeline and chimney, conductors routed along roofline and downspout lines to match the building. From the street, protection you have to look for to see.
Price depends on roof size and complexity, the number of buildings, and grounding conditions. Multi-building packages price the properties together, which brings the per-building cost down. Estimates are free — many are built from satellite imagery of your property — and every system carries a lifetime warranty on parts and labor.
That’s our specialty. Multi-building packages cover the main house, barns, pole barns, shops, and outbuildings under one plan — we protect all of your buildings, with a lifetime of protection, and pricing the property together costs less than protecting buildings one at a time.
Yes. A strike to a nearby tree, fence line, or the ground itself — or one that hits utility lines down the road — can send a damaging surge through wiring, well pumps, and electronics. That’s why grounding and bonding matter as much as the rods on the roof: a properly grounded system gives strike energy a direct, controlled path to earth at the structure itself.
Yes. A tall tree close to a house or barn can side-flash a strike into the roof, or send current through its roots toward the foundation. We install lightning protection for trees themselves — their own terminals and grounding — and we factor nearby trees into every property design.
Yes — New Hope, Solebury, Buckingham, Doylestown, Washington Crossing, and the rest of the county are regular routes for our crews, and we serve all of Pennsylvania statewide. Many quotes are built from satellite imagery so distance never slows down getting your estimate.
