The Greenbrier Valley holds some of West Virginia’s finest farms and grandest homes — Lewisburg’s historic streets, the resort country around White Sulphur Springs, and horse and dairy farms spread across limestone valleys under the Alleghenies. We protect the whole property under one plan, every building covered.
From Lewisburg and White Sulphur Springs through Alderson, Ronceverte, and Union, the Greenbrier and Monroe County valleys are classic West Virginia farm country — broad limestone bottoms, fenced pastures, and farmsteads that have worked the same ground for generations — alongside the resort-area estates and second homes drawn by The Greenbrier and the valley’s mountain setting. Summer storms build over the Allegheny front and roll down these open valleys at full strength, and the tallest structure on every farm is the barn and the silo beside it.
WB Lightning Rods protects the valley the way we’ve protected farms and fine homes since 1950: complete systems built to NFPA 780 guidelines with UL-listed materials made in the USA — whole-farm packages for the valley farms, low-profile systems for Lewisburg’s historic and estate homes. 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.
Greenbrier and Monroe farms spread across wide, open valley floors. A bank barn and silo standing in that open ground are the highest points for a mile — exactly where lightning lands.
A dairy or horse barn holds the herd, the feed, and the equipment a farm runs on. Timber framing and hay storage make a barn strike a worst case — and losing the building is the smallest part of a barn fire.
Cells that build over the Alleghenies break across the valley all summer. Ridge-top and valley-floor properties alike take those storms at full strength.
One company for the whole property — farmhouses, dairy barns, horse barns, pole buildings, and silos, anywhere in the Greenbrier Valley.
Complete lightning rod systems for houses of every size, designed around your roofline — the work WB has done since 1950.
Low-profile systems for fine and historic farmhouses and resort-area homes — slate, tile, and metal roofs — designed around your roofline.
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 — farmhouse, dairy barn, horse barn, pole barn, and equipment shops — 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 the Greenbrier Valley specifically, not copied from a template.
Placed along barn ridgelines, silos, cupolas, and rooflines — the high points lightning seeks first on a Greenbrier Valley farm.
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 — including the valley’s limestone country — 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.
Dairy barns, horse barns, pole barns, equipment shops, and silos incorporated into the farm plan — no building left exposed.
A farm is never one building, and protecting it one building at a time leaves the gaps where losses happen. Our whole-farm packages price the property as one design — farmhouse, barns, pole buildings, shops, and silos, all protected — which costs less than protecting buildings separately and leaves nothing standing unprotected between them. Milking systems, well pumps, refrigeration, and feeding equipment all ride the farm’s electrical service, and the design accounts for every one of them.
The same thinking applies farm to farm. Neighboring farms that install on the same trip earn neighborhood discounts on multi-home packages, and because WB serves all of West Virginia statewide, a Greenbrier Valley farm and a second property in Beckley or the panhandle are one call, one company. Many quotes are built from satellite imagery, so the process can start with one call.
Real WB installations on working farms — dairy barns, bank barns, and horse barns 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 West Virginia storms the calm way.
That’s our specialty. Multi-building packages for farms cover the farmhouse, dairy or horse barns, pole barns, shops, and silos 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.
Price depends on roof size and complexity, the number of buildings, and grounding conditions. Farm packages price multiple buildings together, which brings the per-building cost down. Estimates are free — many are built from satellite imagery of your farm — and every system carries a lifetime warranty on parts and labor.
Yes — inspections and repairs are a big part of what we do. We inspect older systems, repair storm damage and wear, and bring older installations up to current NFPA 780 standards. We make old systems great again.
Yes. Silos are often the tallest structure on the farm, and pole buildings hold the equipment the farm runs on. Both are designed into the farm’s plan with their own terminals, conductors, and grounding.
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, milking equipment, well pumps, and refrigeration. 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. When several farms or homes on the same road install in the same trip, everyone shares the travel and setup — and we pass that saving on as a neighborhood discount on multi-home packages. It only takes one organizer to get it started.
