Wildfire attacks a home three ways: embers, flame and radiant heat. Each service below hardens your home against one or more of them, with permanent upgrades that work without power, water or anyone at home — installed by our licensed WUI retrofit team (CA Lic #1150345) across Ventura, Santa Barbara & west LA County.
Standard vents are one of the most common ways embers enter and ignite a home. We offer two solutions: a fast mesh retrofit using Wildfire Defense Mesh stainless steel ember mesh installed behind your existing louvers — or full vent replacement with Brandguard ASTM E2886-certified ember- and flame-resistant assemblies for homes in the highest-risk zones.
Most homes have 8–20 unprotected vents, and each one is a potential entry point for embers that travel miles ahead of a fire front. Where we install low-profile roof vents, we also apply Firetect WT-102 intumescent coating to the exposed plywood for an added layer of protection. We'll recommend the right tier for your home during the free assessment.
Open eaves create a hidden pathway for embers and flames to reach your roof structure. We enclose them with HardieSoffit fiber-cement panels that won't ignite under direct flame exposure.
HardieSoffit fiber cement is one of the most trusted fire-resistant building materials. Once your eaves are boxed, that vulnerability is permanently eliminated.
Gutters filled with dry leaves and debris are a ready-made fire starter sitting directly on your roofline. We install stainless steel, ember-blocking gutter guards that keep fuel out and stop fire from traveling up into your home's edge.
This is one of the most overlooked vulnerabilities on a home. Clean gutters alone aren't enough — gutter guards provide year-round protection without the maintenance burden.
FLAME- & RADIANT HEAT-RESISTANT
Phos-Chek FORTIFY is a professional-grade, long-term fire retardant from the same family of products used in wildland firefighting. We apply it to two of the highest-risk areas on a property: landscape vegetation in the zones closest to your home, and exposed structural wood such as eaves, framing, fascia, and the substructures embers reach first.
It bonds to the surface and resists ignition through fire season, giving the most vulnerable parts of your property a defensive layer they don't have on their own — applied in a single visit.

FLAME-RESISTANT
FireFree 88 is a fire-retardant base coating engineered specifically for wood siding and exterior wall surfaces. Paired with the FfE topcoat, it forms a two-layer system that resists ignition under direct flame and ember exposure while remaining indistinguishable from standard exterior paint.
It's the answer for homes with wood or wood-composite siding that can't reasonably be replaced with fiber cement. Instead of replacing the siding, we coat it. The result: visibly identical, materially transformed.

EMBER- & FLAME-RESISTANT
Wood decks and fences are one of the most under-protected wildfire vulnerabilities on a home. Embers settle between deck boards, ignite, and travel directly to the structure. A wood fence connected to the home is a fuse.
DeckGuard is a fire-resistant coating applied to wood decks, fences, and connected wood structures, formulated to withstand foot traffic, weather, and UV without sacrificing fire resistance.
