FAQ
Fire-Resistant Siding in Berry Creek — FAQ
It is extreme and the defining factor. Berry Creek was devastated by the 2020 North Complex (Bear Fire) and sits in heavy timber on steep, wind-prone ridges. We apply our most rigorous hardening practice and current WUI standards on every project here.
Yes — we install non-combustible, hardened exterior assemblies to current California WUI rebuilding standards and document the materials used for code and insurability.
Re-cladding combustible wood, board-and-batten, or T1-11 in hardened non-combustible fiber cement is the single highest-value survival upgrade available for a surviving forest home.
Class A non-combustible fiber cement, uncompromisingly detailed at eaves, soffits, vents, decks, and ground transitions to current WUI standards for heavy-timber exposure.
No — we will not install combustible cladding here. The exposure is too severe and too recently proven; non-combustible, hardened assemblies are the only responsible choice.
No, and we won't claim it does. Hardened siding is one layer of a whole-home and whole-property strategy that also depends on vents, decks, defensible space, and the surrounding forest.
