In today’s climate, living in or building within a wildfire-prone area presents real challenges—rising insurance costs, stricter building requirements and the constant worry that a stray ember could threaten what you’ve built. Fortunately, it doesn’t have to be that way.
At EverLog Systems, we manufacture concrete logs, siding and timbers that deliver the look of wood, yet perform like reinforced concrete. Because our products are non-combustible and designed for fire-resistance, insurance carriers in many high-risk zones offer preferential coverage—recognizing the difference that design and materials make.
In this article, How to Build a Fire-Resistant Home in 8 Steps, we break down practical ways to design and maintain a home that’s as resilient as it is beautiful. From creating defensible space to choosing non-combustible materials like EverLog concrete siding and structural logs, these steps can make the difference between worry and assurance when wildfire season arrives.
