Matador Fire installs a Managed Fire Protection System on your property — a reservoir of professional-grade, non-toxic retardant that coats your home on demand. It cuts the chance of ember ignition and buys first responders time to reach a home that's still standing. No $50,000–$125,000 roof sprinkler build, no waiting — you stay in control.
Even if the flames miss you, your insurer might not. Across the West, carriers are pulling out of high-risk zip codes — and a home no one will insure is a home you can't sell or refinance. Defense is no longer optional.
Think of it as a fire hydrant that lives on your property and sprays retardant instead of water. A sealed barrel of professional-grade, non-toxic fire retardant, a pump, 100 feet of hose, and a nozzle — engineered to coat your home and the ground around it in a protective layer that stops embers from catching.
Every system is a complete kit sized to your home. Pick the pump that fits how you live — both deliver the same professional-grade coverage.
Highest flow and pressure, fully independent of the grid. Ideal when a wildfire may knock out power — it runs no matter what.
Push-button quiet, zero fumes, nothing to pull-start. Battery-backed so it works even in a power outage.
The same class of retardant chemistry professional crews rely on — engineered to stop combustion, not just wet a surface.
In the 2025 season, professional firefighters applied this retardant chemistry and 432 treated homes came through. *Chemistry validation by professional crews — not a Matador Fire operations record.
Matador Fire is led by a founder who also serves as a Reserve Deputy Sheriff. Public-safety discipline, built into the company.
Enter your address. We pull your home's footprint from public records, recommend a system, and show you exactly how the 100-ft coverage blankets your property. Drag the systems. Add more. Watch the price update live.
We've placed your first system with 100 ft of hose ready to protect the structure. Drag it to a strategic spot on the map, then continue — you'll add more systems and lay out coverage next.
Place systems at strategic spots around the property, then lay each hose along the perimeter so together they reach every structure and area of the yard you want protected.
I’m 67 years old and have a lot of memories stored in my home. I worked with Matador Fire to add more security to my vents, yard and overall property. I can’t thank these guys enough!!
I feel so much better having worked with Matador Fire to protect my home. I have a wood-paneled, ranch style home and having the retardant placed on-property and my vents hardened gives me and my family the best chance for success.
Nate, the CEO and founder, and his staff have earned my confidence… I actually have a lot more peace of mind when I go to sleep at night.
As a firefighter, I’ve seen that what you do before a wildfire hits often decides if a home is still standing. Matador Fire fits that mindset—it doesn’t replace firefighters, but its long-term retardant can buy us precious time to work when we arrive.
Each system stages professional-grade fire retardant on your property with a self-contained gas or electric pump and 100 ft of hose. When fire threatens — in the critical window before an evacuation order — you coat your home and its perimeter. That sharply reduces the chance of ember ignition and buys first responders time to reach a home that's still standing. No plumbing, no sprinkler heads, no changes to your house.
Yes. It's a non-toxic, professional-grade retardant — rated EPA Category 4, the lowest toxicity category — with no heavy metals, and it's Cal Fire tested to California Title 19, Section 1237.1 (State Fire Marshal standard). It doesn't stain: it rinses off with water and a light brush.
No. It goes on with a milky finish while wet and washes away cleanly with water — no staining of paint, fascia, glass, or plants. A single coat is all that's needed.
Two on-site visits per year for inspection, maintenance, and training. We test and prime the pump (and, on electric units, confirm the battery and charger) so the system is ready the moment it matters — and we make sure you're comfortable operating it.
Both deliver the same coverage. The gas system runs fully off-grid, which is why many customers choose it in wildfire country. The electric system is battery-backed, so it also runs during an outage.
Both gas and electric systems reach about 35–45 feet vertically — roughly a two-story home. Taller or unusually complex properties get a tailored, custom solution.
It depends on your home's footprint and which sides are most exposed. Each system stages 50 gallons of retardant, covers about 7,500 sq ft, and reaches 100 ft. The map planner shows you the layout, and your technician confirms the final count on site — you can add or remove systems at installation.
The system is designed to be simple enough for any homeowner. For those who'd rather not, our team can apply the retardant for you on red-flag warning or mandatory-evacuation days — just ask and we'll build that into your plan.
Everything in one annual plan: professional install, the complete kit, the retardant fill, two maintenance visits a year, a lifetime guarantee on all parts, and free retardant refills if you spray before a mandatory evacuation order.
California's mitigation rules increasingly recognize active wildfire defense, and insurers are watching home-hardening closely. We can't promise a specific discount, but an insured, defended home is a home you can keep covered. (Confirm specifics with your carrier.)
