Fresno County sits at the edge of one of California's most active wildfire corridors. Ember intrusion, inadequate defensible space, and unscreened vents turn a safe distance from the fire line into a direct ignition point. We assess your exposure and document what needs to change.
The CAL FIRE "home hardening" framework identifies the specific features that determine whether a home survives an approaching wildfire. We assess all of them.
Vegetation, mulch, wood furniture, and combustibles within 30 feet of the structure assessed. This zone determines whether a home ignites from radiant heat or direct flame contact.
Most Critical ZoneUnscreened foundation vents, ridge vents, attic vents, and weep holes are the most common ember entry points. We identify every unscreened opening on the exterior.
Primary Ignition PathWood decks, fences connected to the structure, and under-deck storage create direct flame pathways to the home. We assess material, condition, and exposure.
Debris-filled gutters and non-Class A roofing are leading ignition points. We document gutter debris accumulation, roof material type, and visible damage that creates ember collection points.
Tree crown spacing, shrub density, and slope-driven fire behavior factors from 30–100 feet from the structure evaluated against CAL FIRE defensible space requirements.
Every finding documented with photo, severity rating, and recommended action. Emailed same day — useful for insurance review, HOA submissions, or CAL FIRE inspection preparation.
Same-DayDefensible space preparation takes time. A spring assessment gives you the months you need to address vegetation, replace combustible materials, and screen vents before the first red flag warning of the year. Book now.
