On-site Wildfire Risk Assessment

We spend as much time as needed on-site with you, conducting a detailed evaluation of your risks:

  • Defensible Space: Assessing vegetation clearance and spacing

  • Home Hardening Measures: Inspecting vents, gutters, roof, siding, and other structural elements

  • Supplemental Water Supply Options: Exploring additional water resources for firefighting and providing information about exterior sprinkler system options

  • Insurance Considerations: Discussing strategies that may help reduce your homeowners insurance premiums

Recommendations for Specialty Contractors or Services

Depending on which measures you choose to implement, we assist you by providing options for specific, trusted and licensed contractors and service providers to accomplish each task.

We are also available for follow-up site visits after measures have been implemented to confirm they have been completed per the Plan of Action, and to provide a detailed report with video and photos for you to share if needed.

Pre-Construction Risk Assessments

Prior to beginning new construction or remodels, we can assist you in planning for home hardening, defensible space, and supplemental water supply systems. It’s much easier, and often less expensive, to take effective actions at this point.
