We needed lightning rods on our residence and 2 large out buildings. Tom contacted us, set up an appt to come by for measurements and an estimate. He provided detailed info on our options. We decided what to have installed on each structure and he set a start day. His crew was very efficient & worked swiftly to complete the jobs. They left no mess and did high quality work. This company IS the real deal, they still provide great customer service and complete the work on time as was promised to us. Thank you so much Tom/crew!

Tom Hamilton installed lightning rods on our home 25+ years ago. We recently had him come to check the system and do a modification. We had a lightning strike years back after his installation with no damage. He is the right person to trust with doing the job well and is prompt and efficient. I Recommend his business knowing he will do the best job possible. His price showed an excellent value.

Very responsive, gave updates on time of arrival and was on time. Had given us a very good proposal and completed every bit of it plus! I would recommend Tom to anyone looking for professional lighting protection. He was so caring about every detail and drove from Illinois to western Wisconsin to complete the project. There was nothing left undone, I couldn't have hoped for a better experience. Thank you Tom! Joe in New Richmond Wisconsin.

Tom and his crew did a great job of installing and explaining the process of installing our lightning protection system. Called us back right away to get the process moving. Cared about our needs. His pricing was also highly competitive to some of the bigger names in the area. I would highly recommend contacting Tom if you are looking to have a lightning protection system installed.

We hired Tom Hamilton Lighting Rods to install a protection system on a new commercial build. He was extremely knowledgeable, and his crews were professional through the entire process. The system integrates well with the building design and the peace of mind knowing the structure, contents, and anyone inside is protected from a strike is invaluable. We highly recommend Tom Hamilton Lighting Rods for quality, price, and security. Barrington Hills Farm.

In August 2020 our home was hit by lightning. It started a fire and we where forced to leave our house for an extended time. After doing some research a house can be struck by lightning again. We where not willing to take that risk. Tom was referred to us. We met with him and he spent a significant amount of time educating us. His father started the business and he has continued it. I now feel protected in my home. We highly recommend Tom Hamilton.

I am the general manager for Baney Construction, a general contractor in Rockford Illinois. We used Hamilton Lightning Rod as a subcontractor; Tom did a great job for us. From start to finish he was very easy to work with and took great care of our customer. The work was done quickly and at a great price. When I spoke to our customer after the job she couldn't have been happier.

She felt very informed and was ecstatic about the state-of-the-art system he installed. I would definitely recommend Hamilton Lightning Rod to anyone looking for a lightning rod system.
