No one knows the devastation a brush fire can cause more than a California homeowner.  With some of the most active brush fire districts in the world coupled with some especially dry summers, it makes sense that California homeowners would be especially keen on protecting their homes. Obvious signs are a warm summer afternoon with low humidity - a perfect atmosphere to cultivate a brush fire.

Natural disasters seem to be striking with regularity recently not only around the world, but also within the U.S., and even inside the state of California. This is prompting many homeowners to reexamine their homeowners’ insurance coverage, which we at Sutherland-Scherff fully recommend.
