Is your home really prepared for the next fire season? In our region where sun and wind beats down relentlessly and fire season seems to hit harder each year, complacency isn't an option. In January 2025, thousands of Southern California residents faced unimaginable losses, where entire neighborhoods were reduced to ashes.
But, Did you know 90% of homes are first ignited by embers or other fires set by embers and not the main fire itself?

At August Roofing and Solar, we understand the anxieties that come with living in Los Angeles, Ventura, and Santa Barbara counties during high winds. That's why we've developed comprehensive Home Hardening and Fire Protection services, designed to turn your roof system into a formidable shield against the very real dangers of wildfires.
How to Protect Your CA Home Against Fires
Here’s how we bring decades of expertise and advanced methods to make your home safer from fire:
Fire-Resistant Roofing

We use Class A-rated materials designed to withstand embers, radiant heat, and direct flames - keeping your roof and attic strong and secure.
Advanced Vent Upgrades

Our CRS Fire & Ice retrofit kits upgrade existing vents to block ember entry. This includes corrosion-resistant wire mesh and Class A sealants, ensuring compliance with California’s newest wildfire codes.
Securing Vulnerable Areas

We fortify eaves, gutters, and roof attachments with non-combustible materials, ensuring no ember pathways remain. Plus, we install protective gutter covers and metal flashing to eliminate risks.
Compliance You Can Trust

Every step meets or exceeds the latest Wildland Urban Interface (WUI) standards and the 2024 Chapter 5, Section 503 regulations.
Vulcan Vent Retrofits for Attic Protection

We install Vulcan ember-resistant vents for gable, soffit, and eave openings to prevent embers from entering your attic. These vents include a stainless-steel ember screen and intumescent matrix that expands to block fire entry when exposed to high heat.
