HOME HARDENING SAFETY STARTS WITH VENTING
WHY VULCAN VENTS? Fine mesh screen stops ember ingress while allowing for adequate airflow when fire isn’t near. When exposed to flames, the fire-resistant coating on the inner honeycomb matrix will expand and effectively fill the space between the cells, creating an effective barrier. Built and tested to be an effective defense against ember storms. The core of the Vulcan fire and ember-resistant vents are manufactured out of corrosion-resistant, high-grade aluminum honeycomb complete with an intumescent coating made by Firefree Coatings. The hexagonal intumescent coating is designed to quickly swell up and close off when exposed to high heat. The expanded material acts as an insulator to heat, fire, and embers.The intumescent coating begins to expand when exposed to radiant heat starting at 350F, then fully expands at 500F at rate of 70 to 1, effectively sealing off the vent and protecting it from the intrusion of firebrand embers and direct flame.

Our patented GutterGlove design blocks unwanted debris while allowing water to flow freely to your downspouts. Easy to install under existing roof shingles and along the gutter's edge, these guards reduce fire risk by dry debris build-up. With installation typically completed in just one day and prices starting at $15.99* per linear foot, protect your home effortlessly!
VULCAN RETROFIT VENTS
Vulcan Retrofit Vents can be easily installed in existing venting, offering homeowners firesafe defense without compromising adequate ventilation. Attic ventilation serves two main functions: to lower attic temperatures and to remove excess moisture. Lowering the temperature in the attic can help reduce air-conditioning energy costs and roof deck temperature, optimize the service life of a roof covering, and minimize ice damming. Some benefits of removing excess moisture include reducing the possibility for mold and mildew growth and minimizing the potential for wood rot.
ATTIC VENTILATION
Ensure your home is protected from wildfires with ember-resistant vents. These vents allow outside air to flow into your attic while blocking embers from entering, providing an extra layer of defense for your home. Enjoy peace of mind knowing that your attic is well-ventilated without compromising safety. Invest in ember-resistant vents today to safeguard your home and family.

"Absolutely Outstanding Experience with Tom at Norcal Firescaping!
We had Tom from Norcal Firescaping replace all the foundation and eave vents around our house -- and I can honestly say, the entire experience was far beyond what we expected. Tom completely under-promised and over-delivered. Not only did he do top-quality work with the vents, but he also went above and beyond by fixing our broken gate -- without us even asking!
He was professional, efficient, and incredibly easy to work with. The whole process was smooth from start to finish. It's rare these days to find someone who cares this much about doing the job right -- now I understand why he's so busy. Tom is the real deal, and we feel lucky to have found him.
If you're looking for someone who does excellent work, keeps his word, and leaves your property better than he found it -- Tom's your guy. Highly, highly recommend Norcal Firescaping!"

Working with Oliver from SOCAL Firescaping Building and Home Hardening was a slam dunk. His knowledge, kindness, and thoroughness made the whole process of upgrading our eave soffit and foundation vents a breeze.
When we spoke to our house insurance provider, it felt great to confidently report the fire-safe characteristics of our home thanks to his expertise. We highly recommend SOCAL Firescaping for anyone looking to enhance their home's safety.

Tom responded promptly to my phone call then came for the on-site estimate. The written estimate arrived within the next week. He and his assistant arrived as schedule to perform he work. They were knowledgeable, efficient, and left the place clean when the work was completed. Both were professional, pleasant, and easy to work with. Of the 3 companies listed on he City of Berkeley website for home hardening, NorCal Firescaping was the most responsive. I couldn't have asked for a more positive experience. I highly recommend Tom and his company! Hire him. He knows what he's doing. You won't regret it.
