About Foothills Fire Block
Foothills Fire Block is a Colorado-based wildfire mitigation and home hardening company helping homeowners, HOAs, and property managers reduce wildfire risk in the Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI). We serve foothill and mountain communities including Vail, Aspen, Summit County, Boulder, Ken Caryl, Evergreen, Morrison, Golden, Castle Pines, and Conifer.
We’re not just a “tree crew with chainsaws.” We’re a science-based mitigation partner focused on how homes actually ignite—most often from wind-driven embers that exploit vulnerable openings (vents, eaves, decks, fences, gutters, and debris). Our work is built around practical, measurable risk reduction: defensible space, ember-resistant retrofits, and home ignition zone strategies that preserve the look and value of high-end properties while improving survivability.
Our team is led by a Certified Wildfire Mitigation Specialist (CWMS)—a professional credential that signals advanced training in wildfire behavior, WUI risk reduction, and evidence-based mitigation planning. CWMS matters because homeowners don’t need guesswork or scare tactics—they need clear priorities, correct sequencing, and work that aligns with recognized best practices
"Wildfire mitigation isn't about building a concrete bunker. It’s about breaking the physics of the ignition sequence. By systematically removing the kindling from your home's immediate perimeter, we ensure that when the embers inevitably fall, they simply fade to black" -Scott CWMS
