Lightning protection & surge protection: protection that prevents costly damage

Installation, repairs and inspections of lightning protection systems (LPS) and surge protection (SPD) for companies, municipalities, schools and apartment buildings. We ensure continuity across grounding and bonding so the protection works as one system — no improvisation, with protocols suitable for audits and insurance.

Protection for the building and the technology inside

We don’t do “just a wire on the roof”. We align LPS with grounding, bonding and surge protection.

Protocols for inspections, audits and insurance

Clear deliverables, labeling and handover that make sense for facility management and auditors.

Serviceable installation

Clean routing, correct connection details and access for future inspections and repairs.

Fast response after an incident

After a lightning strike or fault we diagnose, repair and return the system to a safe state.

Who it’s for

When you want peace of mind—during storms and inspections.

Lightning and surge risks are often “silent” until something breaks. We set up protection that is functional, traceable and serviceable.

Industry & manufacturing

Halls, warehouses, switchboards and sensitive equipment—focus on operational continuity and minimal downtime.

  • LPS + SPD for critical technology
  • measurements and protocols
  • service planning (staging / outages)

Companies & office buildings

Offices, operations and logistics—protect IT, validate measurements, and link to electrical inspections and documentation.

  • SPD for power and data lines
  • handover for facility management
  • maintenance recommendations

Municipalities, schools & public buildings

Solutions that hold up in real operation and inspections—safety, traceability and clean handover.

  • inspection reports and documentation
  • clear safety standard
  • handover that the caretaker can use

HOAs / apartment buildings

Repairs and modernization of older LPS, adding surge protection and verifying the grounding electrode.

  • repair / renew LPS
  • add SPD
  • grounding tests
What we solve

External lightning. Internal surges. One coherent solution.

Best value comes from a complete system: LPS, SPD, grounding and bonding. This reduces damage, downtime and “unknowns” during inspections.

New lightning protection systems (LPS)

Design and installation of external lightning protection: air terminals, down conductors, grounding, correct connection details and labeling.

  • routing and adjustments (roof / façade)
  • penetrations and fixings
  • completing missing parts and standardizing the installation

Repairs & modernization of existing LPS

Older systems often suffer from corrosion, loose joints or unclear bonding. We bring order and service logic.

  • repairs of down conductors, joints and fixings
  • standardized routing and removal of improvisations
  • adding labeling and service points

Lightning protection inspections (initial & periodic)

Verification of installation quality, joints and system continuity. Clear reports and recommendations for safe operation.

  • visual inspection and condition of joints
  • verification of bonding and equipotential connections
  • documentation and recommended improvements

Surge protection (SPD)

Internal protection against overvoltage—protects switchboards, electronics, IT and technology from storms and switching events.

  • SPD design and installation in switchboards
  • verification of coordination
  • recommendations for sensitive technologies

Grounding electrodes, grounding & bonding

Without good grounding, neither LPS nor SPD will work well. We solve it as one system.

  • grounding electrode checks / additions
  • bonding of conductive parts (equipotential bonding)
  • audit-ready and inspection-ready setup

Post-strike / fault response

If an incident happens: we check the system, diagnose damage, propose repairs and steps to reduce repeat risk.

  • LPS inspection and joint checks
  • SPD and switchboard checks
  • recommended improvements and prevention

Most common issue: protection exists, but it doesn’t work as a system.

Older buildings often have LPS without clear grounding continuity, missing bonding or missing surge protection. We treat these parts together— that’s where the real benefit comes from.

Deliverables

Outputs that work in real life.

Clear scope, clean protocols and practical recommendations. Not “it’s done somehow”—but serviceable protection you can operate long-term.

Site survey & quick pre-scoring

  • assessment of LPS condition (down conductors, joints, fixings, corrosion)
  • check of grounding and bonding continuity
  • risk capture and prioritized plan (urgent vs planned work)

Solution proposal & budget

  • repair / modernization / new installation options
  • SPD recommendations based on the building type
  • timeline and staging (phases, outages)

Execution / service in practice

  • clean installation, correct details, labeling and service access
  • coordination with site operation (safety, access, outages)
  • switchboard modifications for SPD where needed

Measurements, protocols & handover

  • inspection report / protocol according to scope
  • photo documentation and maintenance recommendations
  • documents for audits, facility management and insurance
Process

Fast, clear, no chaos.

We tailor the approach to whether you need an inspection, a repair, or a full new installation—always around safety and site operations.

Frequently asked questions

Do you install and repair lightning protection systems?

Yes. We build new lightning protection systems (LPS) and repair/modernize existing ones. We also verify grounding and bonding continuity so the system works as a whole.

What is the difference between LPS (lightning protection) and SPD (surge protection)?

LPS (external protection) safely conducts lightning current into the ground. SPD (surge protection) protects internal wiring and electronics from overvoltages caused by storms and switching events. The best outcome is when both are correctly coordinated.

Do you perform lightning protection inspections?

Yes—initial and periodic inspections depending on the building type and operational requirements. Output is a clear report and recommended improvements to reduce faults and damage risk.

How can I tell the lightning protection system is in poor condition?

Typical signs include corrosion, loose joints, damaged fixings, missing parts, unclear routing, or improvised add-ons. Often issues are discovered during inspection or after an incident.

Can you retrofit surge protection into existing switchboards?

Yes. We assess the installation and switchboards, recommend suitable SPD and implement changes so the protection is functional and serviceable.

Do you test the grounding electrode and verify grounding quality?

Yes. Grounding quality and bonding continuity are crucial for both LPS and SPD. We check it and recommend repairs or additions where needed.

Can you work while the building is operating (without long shutdowns)?

In most cases, yes. We stage work and plan it around site safety and operations. Outages are required only where truly necessary (e.g., switchboard work).

What if the building has no lightning protection documentation?

That’s fine. We perform an on-site survey and map the actual state. We then deliver outputs so facility management and future inspections have a clear baseline.

Do you handle damage after a lightning strike?

Yes. We inspect the LPS and critical joints, check SPD and switchboards, and propose repairs plus preventive steps to reduce repeat risk.

Which buildings benefit most from this?

Industrial and technology sites, public buildings, companies with IT and sensitive electronics, apartment buildings, and sites in exposed locations—where preventive protection has the highest value.

Do you also handle bonding / equipotential bonding works?

Yes. For lightning protection we often address main equipotential bonding and grounding continuity. That prevents “blind spots” and keeps the system safe and serviceable long-term.

What do you need for a quick quote?

Building type, location, a short description (inspection / repair / new LPS / SPD) and ideally photos of roof components, down conductors and switchboards. The exact scope is confirmed during the site visit.
