FIRE DEFENSIBLE SPACE
Fire Risk Assessment
California residents know all too well the dangers unkempt trees pose during wildfire season. The establishment, and maintenance of defensible space around the Central Valley, East Bay, South Bay, and Tri-Valley homes and businesses play a critical role in minimizing the spread and damage caused by fire. If you’re concerned about fire risk, our arborists can provide a detailed fire risk assessment of your property.
What is Defensible Space?
Defensible space is a buffer zone created between a building or structure and the landscape around it. This includes trees, bushes, tall grasses, and any other wildland area on the property. The California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (Cal Fire) has recommended guidelines in place for safeguarding property against wildfire. Currently, California law requires that homeowners in State Responsibility Area (SRA) ensure their properties follow the Board of Forestry and Fire Protection 2 defensible space zones.
