Frequently Asked Questions
How often does my property need vegetation management?
Most residential properties in fire-prone areas require annual service before fire season (typically March-May). Properties with heavy vegetation or rapid regrowth may benefit from semi-annual or quarterly service. Commercial properties often need quarterly or monthly maintenance depending on use and regulations.
What's the difference between one-time clearing and vegetation management?
One-time clearing establishes initial defensible space or prepares a site. Vegetation management is ongoing maintenance to control regrowth and maintain compliance. Think of it like mowing your lawn - you need to do it regularly, not just once. Regular management is actually more cost-effective long-term.
Can you work around my schedule?
Yes, we schedule maintenance at times convenient for you. Many clients prefer service while they're at work or away. We can also coordinate with property managers, HOAs, or tenants for commercial and multi-family properties.
Do you provide documentation for compliance?
Absolutely. We provide detailed service records including dates, work performed, and before/after photos when requested. This documentation is valuable for CAL FIRE inspections, insurance claims, HOA reporting, and property management records.
What happens to the cleared vegetation?
For ongoing maintenance, we typically mulch material on-site as it's generally lighter brush and regrowth. This provides erosion control and returns organic matter to soil. For heavier clearing, we haul material away. We discuss options during your initial consultation.
Can I cancel or modify my maintenance schedule?
Yes, our programs are flexible. While we recommend consistent annual maintenance for fire safety, you can adjust timing, skip years, or cancel with appropriate notice. We're happy to work with your changing needs and budget.
