Made a hole in the roof, small fire and somehow damaged the water line and driveway.

We are seeing more homes hit recently due to the denser population and severe storms.

If you decide to get a lightning protection system be sure to get a UL certified installer. A1 and Triangle do installations here in the Villages.
And yet, ANOTHER! If this doesn't convince you of the need for surge protection and lightening rods, I don't know what will! Two homes in one week! The other was in the village of Charlotte and information was posted on this forum.
