Ember Stop coating being applied to a wooden fence with a roller

Ember Stop Coating

The protection that never sleeps

A fire-resistant coating for the entire exterior of your home — roof, siding, and outdoor wood like fences, decks, and pergolas. Applied like a stain, it resists ignition and slows flame spread every day, with nothing to deploy and nothing to remember.

  • Applied by roller, brush, or sprayer across exterior surfaces
  • Covers roof, walls, and outdoor wood ignition paths
  • No coating makes a home fireproof, but Ember Stop makes exterior surfaces difficult to ignite.

An Ember Clear crew clearing dry brush to create defensible space around a home

Ember Clear

Brush grows back, so we come back

Our local crew clears the overgrown, flammable vegetation around your home to build defensible space and starve an approaching fire of fuel. Fuel regrows every season, so Ember Clear returns when your defensible space is due for a trim.

  • Defensible space built to local guidelines
  • Seasonal return visits when regrowth is due
  • No contracts, no surprise visits

Ember Rain exterior sprinklers soaking a home's roof, walls, and the ground around it

Ember Rain

Too wet to catch

A manual exterior sprinkler system that soaks your home and the ground around it before embers arrive. You turn one valve and the whole ignition zone goes from tinder-dry to dripping.

  • Soaks the roof, walls, and ground in minutes
  • One manual valve, no power required
  • No pumps to program, no electronics to fail
