Wildfire Sprinklers and Home Hardening That Protect Before You Evacuate.
Automated exterior sprinklers. Premier home hardening. Insurance-ready documentation. One company, one scope of work.
The Insurance Crisis Is Real
The FAIR Plan caps coverage at $3M. Your estate is worth three to five times that. More than 700,000 California homeowners have already been forced onto the state's insurer of last resort, and thousands more are joining every month. The math does not work. Waiting will not fix it.
But here is what most homeowners do not realize: California law now requires insurers to recognize documented wildfire mitigation when pricing your policy. The right upgrades, properly documented, can change how carriers evaluate your property. That is exactly what FireRoofs delivers.

More Than Sprinklers. Complete Wildfire Defense.
FireRoofs started with automated exterior sprinkler systems, and that is still the backbone of everything we build. But protecting a home in a fire zone takes more than water on the roof.
We now offer premier home hardening across every mitigation category that California insurers are required to recognize. Automated sprinklers, noncombustible fencing, ember-resistant vents, fire-retardant vegetation treatment, exterior cladding, defensible space clearance, and Zone Zero landscape hardening. We handle it all under one scope of work.
When the project is finished, you get a carrier-ready evidence packet that documents every upgrade, maps it to California's Safer from Wildfires regulation, and gives your insurer or broker exactly what they need to evaluate your property favorably.
One company. One project manager. One documentation package. That is the FireRoofs difference.
View All ServicesYour Insurance Carrier Sets the Timeline
Not every homeowner needs everything done at once. FireRoofs adapts to your insurance situation. We can sequence the work based on what your carrier prioritizes, what your timeline demands, and what your budget allows.
Every phase is fully documented so you earn insurance discounts immediately, even for partial mitigation.
1 to 2 Weeks
Insurance Deadline Response
Facing non-renewal? We prioritize emergency defensible space clearing in Zone Zero and out to 100 feet, install ember-resistant vents, and deliver basic documentation for your non-renewal appeal. This is the fastest pathway to demonstrate immediate mitigation when your deadline is measured in weeks, not months.
4 to 6 Weeks
FAIR Plan Exit Strategy
Stuck on the FAIR Plan? We target the mitigation categories that deliver the highest insurance discount ROI. Defensible space, Zone Zero clearing, ember-resistant vents, fire-rated roof assessment, and noncombustible fencing. Class A documentation package ready for broker submission. Sprinklers can be installed in this phase or later when budget allows.
6 to 8 Weeks
Integrated Protection
Full budget flexibility? We install automated exterior sprinklers, complete all home hardening work, and deliver the premier documentation package. This is the comprehensive approach where everything is done together under one coordinated timeline.
The right pathway depends on your carrier, your deadline, and your circumstances. We assess your insurance situation first, then recommend the sequence that gives you the best outcome.

Common Questions
Do exterior wildfire sprinklers actually work?
Yes. Roof sprinkler systems pre-wet the roof and surrounding surfaces, dramatically reducing ignition risk from radiant heat and airborne embers. In the 2007 Ham Lake Fire, 100% of homes equipped with exterior sprinklers survived while neighboring unprotected structures were lost.
How does the dual detection system work?
FireRoofs uses dual wildfire detection. The first layer is regional satellite wildfire monitoring that watches for wildfire activity within a 5-mile radius of your property. The second layer is on-property cameras with intelligent fire detection that confirm threats at your property.
What areas does FireRoofs serve?
FireRoofs serves 32 communities across the Bay Area and Santa Cruz Mountains, including Saratoga, Los Gatos, Woodside, Portola Valley, Los Altos Hills, Cupertino, Scotts Valley, and more. Find your city.
What is home hardening and why does it matter for insurance?
Home hardening means upgrading the physical components of your home to resist wildfire ignition. California's Safer from Wildfires regulation (Insurance Code 2644.9) identifies 12 specific mitigation categories that insurers must recognize. FireRoofs addresses all of these categories and documents everything in a carrier-ready evidence packet.

Let's talk about defense.
We walk your property before we design anything. The evaluation is free, and the system is built around what we find. Every lot is different: slope, vegetation, roof material, water pressure, wind exposure, number of structures. We assess all of it and design a scope of work that fits your property specifically. Sprinklers, hardening, documentation. Everything under one roof.
