Reducing Your Wildfire Vulnerability, Empowering You with Knowledge and Protection.
Our Mission: To Protect Your Home, Family, and Community from Wildfire.
​
The threat of wildfire is more present than ever, but you don't have to face it alone. Fire Defense Systems was founded by firefighters with a single, clear mission: to bring frontline, real-world wildfire experience directly to homeowners, HOAs, and communities. We provide the most comprehensive wildfire risk assessments and actionable mitigation plans available, empowering you with the knowledge and strategies to make your property resilient.
​
What is a Professional Wildfire Risk Assessment?
A wildfire risk assessment from our team is the single most important step you can take to safeguard your property. It's a detailed, on-site evaluation where our experts analyze every factor that contributes to your unique fire risk. We go beyond simple checklists to deliver a complete picture of your property's vulnerabilities and strengths, including:
​
-
Home Ignition Zone Analysis: We meticulously inspect the critical space around your home, identifying flammable vegetation, landscaping features, and other "fuel" for a fire.
-
Structural Vulnerability Inspection: We examine your home's construction materials, from roofing and siding to vents, decks, and windows, identifying specific areas that need "hardening" against embers and flames.
-
Topography and Fuel Load Evaluation: We assess how your property's slope, location, and surrounding vegetation affect potential fire behavior.
Based on this in-depth analysis, we deliver a clear, prioritized, and actionable mitigation plan. This isn't just a report; it's a roadmap to resilience, with step-by-step guidance on creating defensible space, making strategic home hardening upgrades, and drastically improving your property's ability to survive a wildfire.

Unlock Better Insurance Options and Secure Your Investment
​
In today's challenging insurance market, a professional wildfire risk assessment is more than just a safety measure—it's a critical financial tool. Many insurance carriers are requiring homeowners in high-risk areas to demonstrate proactive risk reduction. A certified assessment and a completed mitigation plan from Fire Defense Systems serve as powerful proof to insurers that you have taken verifiable steps to protect your property. This documentation can be the key to securing or retaining your homeowner's insurance and can potentially lead to more favorable coverage options.
