NOW
Each year, hundreds of homes in the wildland interface are lost to wildfires. According to the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CAL FIRE), as many as 80 percent of the homes lost to wildfires in the past could have been saved if the owners had followed a few simple fire-safe practices.
Fire Prevention
California is prone to wildfires, and brush mowing helps reduce the amount of dry, flammable vegetation that could easily catch fire. By keeping the vegetation under control, you're reducing the fuel that could feed a fire, making it less likely for flames to spread to your property or neighboring areas.
Firebreak Creation
Brush mowing is often done to create firebreaks, which are cleared areas of vegetation that can help slow or stop the spread of fires. Creating these firebreaks around your property can be a key measure in fire prevention.
Protect your Homeowner’s Insurance policy
California Insurance companies are putting policies at risk of cancellation due to unmitigated fire fuel/brush on your property. Maintaining a clean and defensible area around your home may help insurance providers understand the lower risk of your particular property.
