About
Built for property owners in Southern California's fire country.
Charred Guard was started to give homeowners the same zone-by-zone read on their fire risk that fire agencies use — explained in plain language, so you always know where things stand and what to do next, on your own timeline.
WHY WE STARTED
Reports people could act on
Too many wildfire assessments end up as dense PDFs nobody reads. We build reports that tell you the three things to fix first, and why they matter.
HOW WE INSPECT
The same standard, every time
Every property is checked against the same Wildfire Prepared Home criteria and local fire hazard data, so results are consistent and comparable over time.
WHO IT’S FOR
Owners, insurers, and inspectors
Homeowners use our reports to plan hardening projects. Insurers and agents use them to verify defensible space compliance.
Our approach
Independent, criteria-based, and documented.
- Independent.We assess your property, we don’t sell the fix, keeping the incentive on getting the finding right.
- Criteria-based.Findings are measured against Wildfire Prepared Home’s published criteria and California Fire Hazard Severity Zone data.
- Documented.Every finding is photo-documented and organized by zone, so the report holds up whether it’s shown to a contractor, an insurer, or yourself in a year.
