A practical directory of companies whose own websites describe defensible space, fuels reduction, or structural home hardening. Every listing shows its source and the date it was checked.
This directory currently includes 23 hand-checked listings, 13 of them with a License verified badge. Browse and search default to verified contractors. It is not a complete roster of every contractor in the region.
Services labeled clearly
Vegetation and fuels work is separated from structural home hardening so you can match the job to the right kind of contractor.
Licenses shown carefully
We mark a license verified only when Oregon CCB or Washington L&I showed an Active record for the named business. Expired, suspended, unmatched, or partial findings are labeled plainly.
No scare tactics
Factual hiring help only. No guaranteed insurance discounts, no quality rankings, and no invented reviews.

Guides
Oregon defensible space
The statewide wildfire hazard map and its mandatory defensible-space rules were repealed in 2025. A model code is available for cities and counties to adopt, and OSFM still publishes recommended zones and free assessments.
Washington defensible space & WUI
As of November 2026, Washington has no statewide defensible-space requirement. DNR’s new hazard maps were still in draft, and the limited statewide WUI construction rules in statute take effect when those maps are finished. Local governments may adopt more.
Home-hardening checklist
A practical checklist for roofs, 1/8-inch vent mesh, gutters, decks, siding, windows, and the first five feet around the house, drawn from IBHS, NFPA Firewise USA®, and Oregon and Washington agencies.
