Courtesy home wildfire assessment

A group of people discussing something outdoors, near a house and grass, with one person standing separately.

Summit Fire & EMS wildfire specialists offer FREE, no-obligation home wildfire assessments to owners and residents of existing homes. Walking your property one-on-one over the course of about an hour,  you can learn the best ways to make your home more likely to survive a wildfire through practices such as creating adequate defensible space, "hardening" your home against embers and selecting the best materials when it come to replacing decks, siding and roofs. Additionally, you'll learn what you need to know about personal preparedness, such as making backup copies of those irreplaceable family photos and vital documents, consulting with your insurance agent about adequate coverage and preparing an evacuation kit to have in your vehicle during wildfire season. 

After filling out this form, we will call or email you to schedule your courtesy assessment at a later date. With a record-breaking fire season and the community's response to our call to action, we cannot schedule any additional requests for a temporary basis. Thank you for your understanding. 


WE WILL CALL YOU TO SCHEDULE a time based on the availability of our wildland team. This may take several weeks as we are in the middle of wildfire season. We appreciate your understanding.
