FireSmart Treatments Protect your Home from Wildfire
Wildfire has become an increasing threat for residents living in southeast British Columbia. Many homeowners are unaware of the risks associated with not addressing forest fuels around their properties. Insurance companies are increasingly responding the the threat of loss due to wildfires by requesting that homeowners meet FireSmart Canada’s guidelines. We have a highly skilled crew that includes Local FireSmart Representatives and a network of Forestry Professionals with years of experience providing consulting, planning and effective forest fuel modification in the Wildland/ Urban Interface (WUI).
Our professional arborist representatives provide fire mitigation measures that match recommendations made by FireSmart Canada guidelines to help reduce the risks by creating defensible space around homes and valuable structures. We employ arborists with FireSmart training and are Local FireSmart Representatives. Green Leaf Tree Services Ltd. has extensive experience providing small and large-scale fuel mitigation treatments for residents, municipalities, and government. Don’t wait until it’s too late- Give us a Call today to have your home assessed for wildfire hazards.

“Green Leaf has made three trips to our home as we annually, begrudgingly, remove more trees from our yard. As much as we love the trees we are becoming more firesmart with our property especially given the events of the past few summers. Scott and his crew are the epitome of professionalism and treat your yard and property with care and respect. They work efficiently, quickly and safely and always clean up once the job is done. We have recommended them to neighbours and would not hesitate one bit to call them again.”
