Wildfire pretreatment
in Santa Fe.

For Santa Fe homes and estates, confirm whether the property is within the city or unincorporated county. That distinction helps identify the appropriate local resource while WTG defines a separate application scope.

Preparing a Santa Fe property for review

Coordinate the property plan with the owner, caretaker and any association that manages adjacent land. Santa Fe County’s Wildland Division provides a local starting point for community planning resources.

  • City versus county jurisdiction
  • Estate representative
  • Existing local assessment

From assessment to written proposal

Share the address, property type and priorities. The assessment defines suitable fuels, access and exclusions; a mapped proposal then identifies the agreed work. Travel, product requirements and site conditions shape the quote. We do not post a universal price or assume that every square foot should be treated.

After application, documentation should record the completed scope and observations. Ongoing vegetation changes, weather exposure and maintenance inform further inspection and any reapplication decisions.

Retardant supplements defensible space and home hardening. It does not guarantee property survival, provide emergency response or replace evacuation guidance.
