Wildland / Urban interface
In short form, the wildland and urban interface in short form is where unnocupied or uninhabited environment transitions to an urban environment where there is urban development. Our company has experienced Level 1 firefighters as well as Type 1 certified wildland firefighters with certifications from CIFFC, CIF and NFPA. Zach is a certified forest technologist and has years of experience working as a Forest Technician for the Province of Nova Scotia. Our company is offering wildland and urban interface hazard assessments as well as hazardous tree removal from the wildfires of 2023 throughout the province. Since the events of this summer, being smart about risks relating to wildfires and preventing further damage to your property from trees or areas that have been burnt or affected is beneficial for a multitude of reasons for safety, value of property and overall aesthetic condition of your home & property. Working around charred forests and scorched trees is very different than working with green and living trees, make sure you give us a call to have professionals assess, give you strategies or do the work to get your property safe from future damage. - Zach Rafuse, CFT.
We are offering removal, land clearing, hazard assessments, preventative action safety plans, forest type classification and reccomendation. We are happy to work with insurance companies to make sure you are safe for the future.
