Our Services

We offer targeted fire mitigation and property hardening solutions in Granby and the surrounding mountain communities.

Defensible Space Creation

Defensible space is your first line of defense. We clear dead vegetation, thin tree crowns, and remove lower branches to create zones that slow fire spread around your Granby home.

Our work focuses on the three zones: immediate perimeter (0–5 feet from structures), intermediate zone (5–30 feet), and extended zone (30–100+ feet). Each zone has specific requirements we follow to meet defensible space standards.

We haul away or chip all debris on-site. Property owners in Granby appreciate working with crews who clean up thoroughly and document what was removed for insurance purposes.

Roof & Siding Hardening

Embers travel far ahead of fire and can lodge in gutters, under eaves, and behind siding. We seal vulnerable points and coordinate roof or siding repairs that reduce ember intrusion risk.

Common hardening work includes clearing gutters, installing gutter guards, sealing soffit vents, upgrading roof vents with 1/8-inch mesh, and replacing damaged fascia. In neighborhoods near the national forest boundaries around Granby, these upgrades directly improve home survivability.

Brush & Debris Removal

Accumulated brush and dead wood create fuel loads. We remove dead trees, cut standing snags, clear undergrowth, and haul all debris to local disposal facilities or chip on-site.

Our crews work safely around structures and existing landscaping. Property owners throughout Granby rely on us to remove hazardous material while preserving the healthy trees and aesthetic character of their land.

Why Fire Mitigation Matters

Wildfire risk in Grand County has increased. Mitigation work reduces property vulnerability and often lowers insurance costs.

Reduce Wildfire Risk

Defensible space and hardening upgrades make a measurable difference in structure survival during wildfires. Granby properties with cleared perimeters and sealed vents perform better when fire conditions arrive.

Embers travel miles ahead of visible flames. Clearing vegetation and sealing gaps prevents ember intrusion.

Lower Insurance Costs

Many insurers offer premium discounts or survivability credits for completed fire mitigation work. Documented defensible space and hardening improvements can reduce annual costs.

Check with your insurer before work begins. We provide detailed reports of all completed mitigation to help you claim available discounts.

Peace of Mind

Knowing your property has been assessed, hardened, and cleared according to defensible space standards provides confidence during wildfire season. You can focus on your family and community, not anxiety about preventable risks.

What does defensible space include?

Defensible space consists of three zones around your home: the immediate zone (0–5 feet) cleared of all vegetation and dead debris; the intermediate zone (5–30 feet) with thinned trees, no lower branches, and minimal undergrowth; and the extended zone (30–100+ feet) with selective tree removal to reduce fuel density.

  • Remove dead trees, branches, and fallen wood
  • Thin tree crowns so sunlight reaches the ground
