A few useful answers

Before we
walk the land.

Is Range Roots a consulting business or a maintenance crew?

Range Roots focuses on assessments, written management plans, contractor scopes, and follow-up monitoring. Implementation is scoped separately with suitable contractors. The first conversation establishes the property’s needs and the role Range Roots will take.

What do I receive after a consultation?

The agreed scope sets your deliverables before fieldwork. A baseline visit may include a written action summary and photos. A management plan can add management zones, treatment priorities, a seasonal schedule, and a contractor scope. Monitoring adds repeat observations and progress notes.

Can you certify my property through Wildfire Partners?

Official assessments, certificates, financial awards, and final inspections are handled by Wildfire Partners and its approved providers. Range Roots can help organize vegetation priorities and implementation around an existing assessment. We do not claim program approval or insurance certification.

Do you provide pesticide treatments or regulatory studies?

Pesticide-specific advice and applications are separately scoped against verified licensing and site requirements. Wetland delineations, protected-species surveys, engineering, and formal program plans may require specialist providers. Those requirements are established before accepting the assignment.

How are projects priced?

Consulting is quoted by scope, acreage, terrain, access, field time, and the level of documentation you need. Larger or technical assignments receive a custom proposal. We agree on the deliverables and fee before the project begins.

Where do you work?

Range Roots is based in Longmont and focuses on Boulder, Larimer, and western Weld counties. Our core area includes Longmont, Boulder, Niwot, Lyons, Berthoud, Loveland, Erie, and the Carbon Valley. Foothill and other Front Range assignments are considered by scope and travel.
