Is Your Home Firewise?

Many homes in the Steamboat District are built nestled in timber, grass, and brush. This can be detrimental to your home; a home like this can be destroyed by wildfire before the fire department arrives.

Use this checklist to help make your home fire safe or contact our office for more information.
