Defensible Space Creation Service Overview

Understanding Defensible Space

In the regions prone to wildfires, like Northern Nevada, creating a defensible space is crucial for safeguarding your property. A defensible space is a carefully planned landscape designed to slow or halt the spread of fire, providing valuable time for firefighters to protect assets. Our service at Pinnacle Landscaping focuses on designing such spaces that do not compromise on aesthetics.

The Three Zones of Defensible Space

  • Zone 1: This zone is closest to the house and involves the strategic management of vegetation. We prioritize the removal or reduction of combustible materials and ensure plant and tree spacing adequately prevents fire from spreading.
  • Zone 2: In this area, we focus on plant health and maintenance to further prevent the risk of fires reaching the home. This involves regular pruning, the use of fire-retardant plants, and creating breaks with gravel, pathways, or driveways.
  • Zone 3: This area extends further out and is maintained to slow down any approaching wildfire. We employ techniques such as thinning overcrowded plants and cutting back dead or overgrown vegetation.

Testimonials

Our clients love us

Here's some of what they had to say

Friendly, professional, and did a wonderful job on my parents yard - tore out old fence, extended fence line and leveled with DG and garden beds. Thank you!

Chris and the crew from Pinnacle Landscaping rescued us from the nightmare left behind by a rock wall "contractor" that we originally used to make minor repairs to an existing wall, which was the centerpiece of our front yard. Because none of the original rock was usable, Pinnacle hauled it all away and constructed a well-designed beautiful concrete block wall at a very fair price last spring. Given all the compliments we received from friends and neighbors, we asked Pinnacle to remove the still-intact lower rock wall and replace it with the same color concrete blocks as last fall. Needless to say, Pinnacle exceeded all of our expectations, and we would highly recommend them for similar or other projects. Thanks, Chris!!
