Fire Safety for your Home!


Recently there has been an increase of record breaking temperatures all over the country which means a high possibility of wildfires. The summer months are over but Santa Ana Winds and high temperatures are still likely to occur during the Fall season. September and October are high risk fire months in Southern California and being prepared is well worth the effort.

Don't take chances, Take Charge! This Month KRC Rock is promoting fire-wise landscaping and the awareness of defensible space initiatives. With proper maintenance and practices, you can keep your home and family safe and help reduce the spread of wild fire. Protect your home and family from potential fire hazards through "firescaping" and creating defensible spaces.  

KRC Rock specialists are here to help you keep your residence "lean, clean and green" during Wildfire season.  The good news is, you don't need a lot of money to make your landscape fire safe. And you will find that a fire safe landscape can increase your property value and conserve water while beautifying your home. 
 
Get creative with your firescaping by adding fire resistant elements such as boulders, driveway and patio pavers, rock mulch and unique water features to help distance your house from threatening flames.
