Reduction of Flammable Vegetation

This space is needed to slow or stop the spread of wildfire and it helps protect your home from catching fire—either from embers, direct flame contact or radiant heat. Proper defensible space also provides firefighters a safe area to work in, to defend your home.

Installation of Fire Resistive Vents

Stopping embers from entering your attic is of paramount importance during ember storms caused by wildfires. With fire-resistant Vents can protect your home and comply with California wildfire protection codes.

Installation of Non-Combustible Gutter Guards

When properly installed (and maintained), these can reduce the amount of vegetation litter and debris that accumulate in your gutter, and, therefore, reduce the need to clean it.
