Are these homes designed to be resilient to wildfires? 

While it's important to note that no home is completely fireproof, we have taken great care in selecting exterior finishes and details that enhance fire resilience. Our pre-designed homes incorporate materials and features designed to mitigate fire risk and increase safety. Some of these include non-combustible siding, roofing & soffits, aluminum framed windows, ember-resistant venting, and ignition-resistant decking. Our goal is to provide homeowners with designs that prioritize safety and resilience in the face of wildfires.
