THE WORK

DEFENSIBLE SPACE IS NOT OPTIONAL HERE.

Anza, Aguanga and the surrounding high country burn. California requires defensible space around structures in wildfire-prone areas, up to 100 feet, and insurance carriers increasingly demand proof of it. We clear brush, cut fuel breaks and grade fire access so a defensible property is what the fire actually meets.

When fire season goes bad, our dozers go to work for the agencies: fire line construction and wildfire suppression support under CAL FIRE Emergency Equipment Rental Agreements. The same operators and machines that cut lines on active fires cut the preventive breaks on your property.

STRAIGHT ANSWERS

QUESTIONS WE GET.

How much defensible space does California require?

California requires up to 100 feet of defensible space around structures in wildfire-prone areas, split into zones with different fuel rules. Local requirements and insurance carriers can ask for more. We clear to what your parcel actually needs, not a one-size guess.

What is a CAL FIRE Hired Equipment contractor?

A contractor approved to supply equipment and operators to CAL FIRE under Emergency Equipment Rental Agreements (EERAs) during fire emergencies. S&K dozers and operators work fire line construction and suppression support under that program.

When should I do brush clearing in Anza?

Before fire season: late winter through spring is ideal, while fuels are manageable and before restrictions tighten. If you are behind, call anyway. Late clearing still beats no clearing, and we will tell you honestly what can be done safely.
