OUR SERVICES
Fuels Reduction & Fuel Breaks
We specialize in large-scale fuel reduction and the construction of fire breaks designed to slow or stop wildfire spread. Using mastication equipment and hand crews, we clear dense vegetation, open strategic corridors, and improve access for emergency response and future maintenance.
OUR SERVICES
Burn Zone Restoration
After wildfire damage, our crews assist with safe recovery and site rehabilitation. We remove hazard trees, clear debris, and stabilize terrain to prevent erosion. Each project supports long-term recovery and helps restore access for rebuilding and future vegetation management.
OUR SERVICES
Defensible Space
We create safe buffer zones around homes, businesses, and critical infrastructure to meet fire safety standards. Our defensible space services remove ladder fuels, trim vegetation, and ensure compliance with local and state wildfire regulations — helping protect properties and improve firefighter access during wildfire events.
OUR SERVICES
Brush Clearing & Mastication
We clear dense brush, small trees, and overgrown vegetation to improve access, visibility, and safety. Our mastication equipment and skilled operators ensure efficient, low-impact clearing suited for utility corridors, large parcels, and wildland-urban interface zones.
OUR SERVICES
Orchard Removal
Our orchard removal services handle full tree, stump, and root ball extraction with precision and efficiency. We process and haul away debris, leaving the site clean and level for replanting or new property use. Ideal for agricultural transitions, property development, and land repurposing projects.
