Is my roof at risk?
Roofs often collect leaves and debris and provide areas where embers can get caught, such as in roof valleys and near dormers or roof-to-wall intersections. Using Class A roof coverings, like metal or asphalt fiberglass composition shingles, can reduce your risk. Adding metal flashing in roof valleys can provide extra protection.
Why should I retrofit my home for wildfire resistance?
Retrofitting your home can significantly improve its wildfire resistance, making it safer and more durable in the face of increasing wildfire risks. Here are some other benefits:
Your property may be easier to defend
During a wildfire, fire crews tend to defend structures that have the best chance of survival.
May be beneficial for obtaining insurance or keeping a lower premium
Potentially qualify for lower premiums with wildfire mitigation improvements.
May increase home value
A wildfire-resistant home may be more attractive to potential buyers, increasing its resale value.
Protect your community
Reducing your own risk also benefits your neighbors by reducing the likelihood of a fire spreading in your community.
Cost savings
Many retrofits are affordable and offer long-term savings on maintenance and repairs.
