Water, fire, and mold restoration for Fort Collins and Northern Colorado homes and businesses, handled by one team from the first call to the final repair. We’ve worked across NoCo since 2005, mitigation and the rebuild under one roof.
Whatever you’re facing, start here. Forefront Building + Restoration handles all of it. Pick what fits your situation.
Water Damage Restoration
Burst pipes, failed sump pumps, appliance leaks, and sewage line backups. We extract the water, clean and disinfect, and dry the structure properly, catching the moisture you can’t see before it turns into a mold problem.
Colorado is not too dry for mold. Basements, trapped water, and slow leaks say otherwise. Containment, removal, and a clear read on what’s really a problem and what isn’t.
Colorado storms can put hail and wind damage on a roof in minutes. We handle storm and hail roof damage and the insurance side that comes with it, without the door-knocker pressure.
No need to hand reconstruction off to someone else. After we handle the damage, the same company puts your home back together: framing, drywall, flooring, paint, and fixtures.
A restoration project is only as good as the people running it. One company handles your project from the first call to the final walkthrough, people who have been doing this work across Fort Collins and Northern Colorado for two decades.
One Company, Start to Finish
We handle both phases. We won’t tear out the damage and leave you on your own to find a contractor to rebuild. The same company that handles the damage puts your home back together, so there’s no second company to track down.
We Do What's Best for You
We never want to push you toward a claim you don’t need. With years of experience in the industry and with insurance, we help you make the best decision for your situation. We’ll tell you what we see, what it’s likely to cost, and whether filing even makes sense. Then you decide.
We Answer the Phone
When you find damage in your home, getting information fast matters. We make it easy to get someone on staff on the phone, so you know who’s handling your project and what’s happening without having to chase anyone down.
IICRC Certified
From water to mold to smoke, our work meets the industry’s measured standard, not just whatever looks dry. Moisture gets documented and verified before we call it done, and we take pride in meeting that standard so we can protect you and your property.
What Fort Collins Homes Deal With
Most of our Northern Colorado calls come back to water, and most of that comes back to the same handful of causes.
Frozen & Burst Pipes
Colorado winters swing hard: a cold snap one day and warm enough to be outside the next. That deep freeze followed by a fast warm-up is what makes pipes burst, especially a line in an exterior wall or an unheated crawl space. The classic NoCo loss is a line that bursts while the family’s away over the holidays, running unnoticed, and the longer it runs, the more the damage spreads.
Failed Supply Lines & Appliances
The small lines feeding a fridge, dishwasher, water heater, or toilet are the single most common water loss we get called for. When a supply line breaks, it isn’t a trickle. It’s closer to a garden hose running full blast inside your house. If it runs an hour or more, it’s past a puddle: drywall sagging from the ceiling below, water running from the can lights. An appliance failure is often the slower version, sometimes just a floor that starts to buckle over time. Either way the water travels a lot farther than what you can see, wicking up drywall and soaking into the pad.
Sewage & Water Line Breaks
A clean-water break is one problem; a sewage backup is a contaminated one, and not always a cleanup you want to handle yourself. It can take more than extraction, including containment, disinfection, air filtration, and proper disposal, and we handle all of it. We make sure it’s actually safe before anything gets rebuilt.
Spring Snowmelt & Basement Seepage
It’s usually not the snowpack melting off that gets you. It’s the heavy March or April snowstorm that dumps a foot, then melts off in a day or two when the weather swings back warm. That fast melt is when a sump pump gets its hardest test, and when it can’t keep up or fails outright, a basement that stayed dry all winter starts taking on water. A heavy summer monsoon can do the same thing.
If you’re dealing with any of these, the next step is the same: give us a call and we’ll help you sort out what’s urgent and what can wait. (303) 660-6216
How We Work With Your Insurance
Sometimes homeowners aren’t sure whether they should file a claim, and if they do, they’re not sure how to handle insurance from there. That’s where our experience helps. We work with every carrier, and we’ve spent years with adjusters and the claims process. We can bridge the gap between you and your insurance company and make things easier on both sides.
We work directly for you, representing your home and your best interests, while helping your carrier take the best care of you they can. We know the easier we make things for your carrier, the better they can take care of you. So we document thoroughly, stay in step with your adjuster, and don’t get ahead of the process. You’re not stuck translating between us and your insurance company. That’s part of what we do.
What Happens When You Call
You Call, We Listen
Tell us what you’re seeing. We help you figure out how urgent it is and whether it needs a same-day response or can wait until morning.
We Come Out & Assess
A Free Damage Assessment, on your schedule. We find where the damage has actually traveled, including what you can’t see, and walk you through your options. No cost, no pressure.
We Handle It, Insurance Too
Mitigation, cleanup, and coordination with your carrier, with you in the loop the whole way.
We Put It Back Together
The same company that dried or cleaned your home rebuilds it. No handoff gap.

Exceptional Work by Forefront Construction – Highly Recommended!
Forefront Construction went above and beyond on a complex project that included a roof replacement, custom metal work, and the completion of a beautiful second-story deck. Despite facing several unexpected challenges, their team remained professional, communicative, and committed to delivering top-quality results.
A special shoutout to Victoria, who was absolutely outstanding as the general contractor. Her leadership, attention to detail, and ability to keep everything on track made a huge difference. She was responsive, knowledgeable, and truly invested in making sure the project was completed to satisfaction.
The craftsmanship throughout—from the durable new roof to the precision of the metal work and the stunning deck—is impressive. I highly recommend Forefront Construction to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy contractor. Their work speaks for itself!

Jen and her team are miracle workers. As an insurance agent, it's critical I have contacts for my clients to call who are top notch. Forefront Building and Restoration fill this spot. They are always my first pick to help my clients. And if Forefront can't do the work, Jen always knows someone who can! I only give her 5 stars because I don't have a higher option!

Having your basement flooded is never fun. The first company that came out to review the damage weren’t great. It was intense situation where they wouldn’t give a quote and wanted to start immediately.
I took a breath and called my insurance agent, who recommended Forefront!! From that point on everything was easy. They took care of the insurance claim and dealing with that whole process with patients. Thanks Hunter you are the best! Then on to the remodel. They finished quickly and professionally. Before the walkthrough, Zach noticed the carpet installers slightly damaged a closet door on the side no one would see and had it promptly fixed. Thanks Zach, pretty sure I would have never noticed. Shout out to Jen in finance who updated the payment type so I could get my credit card points and answered any questions.
Great company, great people!!

I had an excellent experience with Forefront Roofing. Their professionalism and quality of work truly stand out. A special shoutout to Marco, the Client Relations Manager, who is knowledgeable and walks you through the process from start to finish. Marco is always responsive, attentive, and went above and beyond to ensure all my questions were answered and that I was completely satisfied. If you’re looking for a reliable roofing company with outstanding customer service, I highly recommend.
Yes. We do the mitigation (water extraction, drying, smoke and soot cleanup, mold removal) and the reconstruction that puts your home back together. One company from beginning to end. No handoff gap.
Yes. We’ve run restoration work across Northern Colorado since 2005, from Fort Collins and Loveland out to Timnath, Windsor, Wellington, and Greeley. We don’t keep a storefront up here, but the crews and equipment reach NoCo regularly. If you’re nearby and not sure whether we cover you, just ask.
We offer 24/7 emergency response. When you call, we’ll help you figure out whether your situation needs someone out the same day or can wait until morning, and get you on the schedule either way. With water especially, the sooner drying starts, the less it spreads into materials you’d rather not lose.
That depends on your situation. A claim that gets denied or pays out less than your deductible still goes on your history and can factor into future rates. That’s information for deciding, not a reason to avoid filing. Sometimes filing is exactly the right move, and that’s what insurance is for. A Free Damage Assessment tells you what you’re facing and what it’s likely to cost before you file, so you can decide with everything on the table.
Yes. We work with every carrier and handle the claim side with you, from documenting the damage to coordinating with your adjuster. Our job is to represent your home accurately and keep the process easy on you.
