Our Process

How Fire Mitigation Works

01

Site Assessment

We walk the property and discuss risk areas, priorities, and access—especially around slopes and tight foothills lots.

02

Plan & Boundaries

We define exactly what vegetation/debris is included, and confirm haul-off and disposal expectations.

03

Mitigation Work

We complete cleanup and removal work with attention to safety, slope footing, and protecting structures and landscaping you want to keep.

04

Final Cleanup

We leave the area visibly cleaner and more open, with clear pathways and reduced accumulation near the home.

Fire Mitigation
Boulder County’s foothills and open space edges can accumulate needles, leaves, deadfall, and brush—especially after wind events. Fire mitigation is often about practical cleanup: reducing fuel near structures and creating more space for safer outcomes. Greater Boulder provides fire mitigation support focused on defensible space cleanup and vegetation management tasks such as removing deadfall, clearing brush, reducing ladder fuels (where appropriate), and hauling away debris. If your project requires certified arborist work or specialized crews, we’ll communicate that early—our goal is to help you make progress safely and responsibly.

Why Our Fire Mitigation Stands Out

Foothills-Ready Approach

We understand Boulder County terrain, wind, and seasonal fuel buildup near open space and canyon corridors.

Practical, Visible Progress

Fire mitigation often starts with cleanup and reduction—work you can see immediately.

Safety-First Work Habits

We prioritize safe movement, controlled removal, and respectful handling of your property.

Clear Communication

You’ll know what we’re doing and why—plus what to handle next if specialized work is needed.

Common Questions About Fire Mitigation

It’s cleanup and vegetation management intended to reduce fuel near a structure—like removing deadfall, needles, brush, and dense growth close to the home.

Large tree removal may require specialized, licensed arborist services depending on location and scope. We can discuss options after a site visit.
