Terms of Use

Effective Date: September 17, 2026

Welcome to Zone Zero Sacramento. These Terms of Use govern your access to and use of www.zonezerosacramento.com and any related pages, forms, information, referral services, and other features provided through the website.

By using this website, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the website.

1. About Zone Zero Sacramento

Zone Zero Sacramento is a privately operated informational and contractor-referral website.

Important: We are not affiliated with CAL FIRE, the California Board of Forestry and Fire Protection, the California Office of Administrative Law, the California Department of Insurance, Sacramento County, any city, fire district, insurance company, or other government agency.

Zone Zero Sacramento does not perform construction, fencing installation, wildfire inspections, insurance services, legal services, engineering, architectural services, or code-enforcement services.

2. Informational Purpose Only

The information on this website is provided for general educational and informational purposes.

Wildfire regulations, Fire Hazard Severity Zone maps, defensible-space requirements, building codes, insurance requirements, local ordinances, and agency guidance may change.

Although we work to provide accurate and current information, we do not guarantee that every page is complete, current, or applicable to your particular property.

You should verify important information directly with the appropriate government agency, fire authority, local jurisdiction, insurance company, HOA, or licensed professional before making construction, compliance, or financial decisions.

3. Zone Zero Regulatory Information

California's laws and regulations concerning ember-resistant areas, defensible space, and the first five feet surrounding structures continue to develop.

References on this website to “Zone Zero,” the “first five feet,” “ember-resistant zones,” “non-combustible fencing,” or similar terms should not be interpreted as a representation that a specific statewide requirement currently applies to every property.

Whether a requirement applies may depend on factors including:

  • The property's location
  • Fire Hazard Severity Zone
  • State or Local Responsibility Area designation
  • Local ordinances
  • Fire-district requirements
  • Construction date
  • Building or fire codes
  • Insurance requirements
  • Future regulatory changes

Property owners are responsible for verifying the requirements applicable to their own property.

4. Contractor Referral Service

If you request assistance, Zone Zero Sacramento may provide your information to one or more independent fencing contractors or other participating service providers that may be able to assist with your project.

Participating contractors are independent businesses. They are not employees, agents, partners, or representatives of Zone Zero Sacramento.

We do not control the contractor's:

  • Pricing
  • Workmanship
  • Scheduling
  • Warranties
  • Licensing status
  • Insurance coverage
  • Materials
  • Recommendations
  • Representations
  • Performance

Before hiring a contractor, you should independently verify the contractor's license, insurance, references, contract terms, and qualifications.

California contractor-license information can be verified directly through the Contractors State License Board.

5. No Guarantee of Contractor Performance

A referral or introduction does not constitute an endorsement, warranty, certification, or guarantee.

Zone Zero Sacramento does not guarantee that:

  • A contractor will contact you
  • A contractor will accept your project
  • A particular product will satisfy applicable requirements
  • A project will qualify for an insurance discount
  • An insurer will approve a mitigation measure
  • A local authority will approve a proposed fence or gate
  • Work performed by a contractor will meet your expectations

Any agreement for construction or services is solely between you and the independent contractor.

6. Compensation Disclosure

Zone Zero Sacramento may receive compensation from participating contractors or service providers when we provide a referral, lead, introduction, or other marketing service.

You are under no obligation to hire a contractor referred through this website.

The price, scope, and terms of any project should be discussed directly with the contractor.

7. Property Assessments

Any property review provided through this website is intended to help identify potentially relevant publicly available information and project considerations.

A property review from Zone Zero Sacramento is not an official inspection, fire inspection, code determination, legal determination, insurance determination, or government-issued compliance assessment.

Maps and publicly available data may contain inaccuracies, boundaries may change, and property-specific conditions may not be visible online.

Official determinations should be obtained from the authority having jurisdiction.

8. Insurance Information

Information concerning homeowners insurance, wildfire mitigation, discounts, underwriting, or California's Safer from Wildfires framework is provided for general informational purposes only.

Zone Zero Sacramento is not an insurance company, insurance broker, insurance agent, or insurance adviser.

Insurance eligibility, discounts, inspections, documentation requirements, underwriting decisions, and coverage vary by insurer and property.

Always confirm insurance requirements directly with your insurance company or licensed insurance professional.

9. No Legal, Engineering, Architectural, or Code Advice

Nothing on this website constitutes legal, engineering, architectural, building-code, fire-code, or regulatory advice.

You are responsible for obtaining any professional advice, permits, HOA approvals, engineering, inspections, or governmental approvals required for your project.

10. User-Submitted Information

When you submit a form, you agree that the information you provide is accurate to the best of your knowledge.

You should not submit information that you do not have the right to provide.

Information submitted through this website may include your name, phone number, email address, property address, project description, photographs, fence measurements, and other details relevant to your inquiry.

Our handling of this information is described in our Privacy Policy.

11. Calls, Text Messages, and Email

Submitting a general inquiry does not automatically authorize unlimited marketing communications.

Where a form specifically asks you to consent to calls, text messages, automated messages, or marketing communications, the consent language presented on that form will govern those communications.

Consent to marketing communications is not a condition of purchasing any product or service unless explicitly permitted by law.

Message and data rates may apply to text messages.
