Our team has the right experience to use fire breaks & controlled burns to protect your property from fires.
Our team at Tim’s Underbrush Cleaning and Yard Care LLC knows you care about your land, and we want to help you take care of it. One key part of land management you will need to consider is fire prevention, and our experts can help you take steps to protect your property from these disasters. Some of the most effective methods of fire prevention are fire breaks & controlled burns, and we encourage you to give us a call to learn more about how we can help you make use of them.
All methods of fire prevention are based on removing one or more of the three things fire needs to burn: heat, oxygen, and fuel. For example, dousing flames in water removes the heat, and smothering them removes oxygen. Fire breaks & controlled burns are designed to deprive a fire of fuel.
For those unfamiliar with the term, a fire break is an area deliberately cleared of trees and vegetation—once a fire hits this gap, the flames won’t be able to keep going in that direction, since there is no fuel to burn. We recommend installing fire breaks around the perimeter of your land to keep your property safe.
A controlled burn, on the other hand, is a fire set on purpose. Forestry experts will deliberately set an area of woods on fire, letting the flames burn away underbrush and fallen debris. Dry leaves, branches, and other debris are excellent fuel for wildfires, and burning it preemptively is a highly effective way to reduce the risk of future wildfires. During controlled burns, the experts also make sure the flames don’t spread too far or become hot enough to burn down mature trees, and overall this method helps keep the forest healthy.
