Call Gow Forestry
We do all project intake by phone so you get immediate guidance and faster scheduling. Skip the inbox delay—speak directly with Kevin Gow about forestry mulching, defensible space, lot clearing or wildfire mitigation.
If we are operating equipment when you call, leave a brief voicemail (name, location area, goal: e.g. ladder fuel reduction, zone 1 thinning, new build clearing) and we return calls the same business day or early the next morning during peak season.

Project Types We Commonly Handle
- Forestry mulching & understory / ladder fuel reduction
- Defensible space zone establishment & refinement
- Lot clearing & new build site preparation
- View corridor & access road reclaim
- Brush management for small farms & rural estates
Response & Scheduling
During peak wildfire season we triage inbound requests based on immediate hazard conditions (dense ladder fuels near structures, overgrown ingress/egress, community interface exposure). Off-peak we coordinate flexible scheduling and can stage phased, budget-conscious treatment plans.
Have This Handy When You Call
- Approximate acreage or square footage of treatment area
- Vegetation profile: brush height, sapling density, ladder fuels
- Access notes: gates, slope, soft ground, narrow drive
- Primary objective: hazard reduction, build prep, view, access
- If exploring DNR cost-share mention that up front
Unsure how to describe conditions? A quick call while you stand on-site plus a few follow-up photos by text lets us advise with high accuracy before scheduling.
Frequently Asked Pre-Contact Questions
Do you charge for assessments?
Standard local site visits for forestry mulching, defensible space or lot clearing scopes are free. Complex multi-phase or distant evaluations may be batched for efficiency.
How soon can work start?
Smaller projects often schedule within 1–3 weeks outside peak fire season. High-risk mitigation can sometimes be expedited.
Do you haul debris?
Mulching typically eliminates most hauling. Oversize material can be consolidated or removed upon request.
What about permits?
Most private rural fuel reduction and basic lot clearing projects require no permit; we flag edge cases (steep slope, water adjacency, sensitive habitat) during assessment.
Do you provide maintenance plans?
Yes—after initial treatment we recommend annual or bi-annual light follow-up for regrowth suppression and ignition zone integrity.
Can you coordinate with builders or HOAs?
We regularly interface with general contractors, real estate sellers and HOA reps to align vegetation management with broader timelines.
What to Include in Project Details
Helpful information: acreage or approximate square footage, dominant vegetation (brush height, sapling density, invasive species), slope considerations, proximity of fuels to structures, access constraints (gates, soft ground, narrow drive) and whether DNR cost-share exploration is desired. Photos accelerate scoping.
Not sure how to describe conditions? A brief call plus a few phone pictures of representative areas lets us advise quickly on feasibility, sequencing and whether multi-phase implementation would optimize budget & impact.
