Individual FireSmart Assessment

To book an assessment, call 604-384-7323 or email firesmart@slrd.bc.ca and provide:

• Your property address
• Preferred time - weekday, evening or weekend
• A phone number so we can call you back

All SLRD homeowners are eligible to receive a free FireSmart Home Assessment conducted by a formally trained Wildfire Mitigation Specialist. 

• Requests for an assessment must be made by the residential property owner, as it appears on the property title; lessees may only request an assessment if provided with a signed letter of consent by the property owner.
• FireSmart or the SLRD do not share the assessment or any details of the assessment with the insurance industry.

A FireSmart Home Assessment provides residents with:

• An in-depth, on-site assessment of your home conducted by a trained Wildfire Mitigation Specialist.
• A detailed follow-up report with customized mitigation actions designed to measurably reduce the wildfire risk to your property.
• An opportunity to earn FireSmart acknowledgement for your mitigation achievements through a certificate. The certificate is given upon successful completion of required mitigation actions and an on-site follow-up inspection.
• A mitigation certification that homeowners can share with their insurance providers.
• FireSmart Home signage for their property (upon successful completion of required mitigation actions and an on-site follow-up inspection).

Homeowners may be eligible for financial assistance in the form of a rebate if they meet requirements and grant funding is available. Learn more about the Rebate Program.
