December 2023 – Service Begins!
FireCare Community Services Association
Protect Your Property, Home and Family from Wildfire
FireCare Community Services Association (FireCare) is a British Columbia Non-Profit Association dedicated to helping prevent fires that can cost people’s homes and lives.
We help Home Owners make their property,
homes and families safer from wildfire.
FireCare provides Home Owners with a thorough and easy to understand Wildfire Property Risk Assessment (PRA).
FireCare can help you understand your property and home’s risk from wildfire based on the standards set by FireSmart BC*. We also provide workable solutions for the Home Owner to remediate issues outlined in our PRA Report, as well as Operators and Workers that can tackle the remediation that the Home Owner cannot or does not want to handle on their own.
*FireCare follows FireSmart BC Guidelines, but is ‘not’ affiliated with FireSmart BC.
All of FireCare Operators & Workers are ‘fully covered’ by WorkSafe BC
