FireRoofs Assessment

A scored, code-cited wildfire assessment that uses satellite imagery, homeowner photos, and California building codes to produce a detailed property report with insurance discount mapping and prioritized action items. Covers all defensible space zones plus home hardening.

CAL FIRE QE-100 (2024)

The official Defensible Space Assessment form used by CAL FIRE Qualified Entities under PRC 4291.5. A pass/fail checkbox inspection covering Zone 1, Zone 2, and surrounding hazard items. Does not evaluate home hardening, insurance, or provide scoring.

Fire Safe Council HIZ Guide (2011)

A national blank-form template from the National Wildland/Urban Interface Fire Program. Five sections covering surroundings to HIZ extent. General guidance without California-specific codes, no scoring, and no insurance integration. Used as a starting point by local Fire Safe Councils.
