Palos Verdes Brush Clearance & Hillside Vegetation Removal

Whether you're preparing for fire season or staying compliant with local laws, we specialize in hillside vegetation removal throughout Rancho Palos Verdes, Rolling Hills, Palos Verdes Estates, and surrounding neighborhoods.

🌿 Remove Overgrown Brush Before Fire Season Hits

Many properties on the Peninsula have 5,000+ square feet of hillside covered in brush, often growing 6–8 feet high. Homeowners typically request this vegetation be reduced to around 3 feet in height for improved fire safety, visibility, and to meet defensible space recommendations.

We use slope-safe equipment and eco-conscious methods to trim down overgrowth without damaging the landscape.

🔥 Fire Code Compliance in Palos Verdes

Most of Palos Verdes is considered a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone (VHFHSZ). To stay compliant, property owners are required to:

• Cut grasses to 3 inches or less

• Thin or remove dry shrubs and brush

• Maintain a 100-foot defensible space

• Limb trees 6 feet above ground

• Eliminate dead plant material or fire-prone debris

These rules are enforced by Los Angeles County Fire Department and CAL FIRE. Avoid citations and costly abatement by staying ahead of inspection season.
