What the evidence shows
A short list with uneven coverage
Water damage is the one service every Fort Collins-area site lists. Mold follows on 7 of 9. Fire and smoke and sewage cleanup each reach 6 of 9. Storm damage trails at 3 of 9, so after a hailstorm or a roof failure you'll be choosing from a much smaller group.
Insurance claim help appears on 6 of 9, free estimates on 4 of 9, and a response time on 3 of 9. 6 of 9 name an industry standard such as IICRC S500 for water, which is self-reported. 1 of 9 is a franchise location and is scored the same way as the local independents.
Records do their part here
Median coverage is 78%, well over the line, because the Secretary of State's business entity data adds items a website can't supply, such as whether the entity exists and when it was formed. The weak point is the score. The 6 companies that cleared the bar score a median of 47, pulled down by missing response times and warranty terms.
Checking a company in Fort Collins
Start with the city. Colorado's DORA says roofers and general contractors aren't licensed by the state, so ask the city where the property sits, such as Fort Collins or Loveland, about a local license. The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment states that it doesn't regulate mold. You can look up a company's registration and standing on the Secretary of State's Business Database Search. For a home built before 1978, the EPA runs lead renovation certification in Colorado, so ask whether the firm holds it. We haven't logged IICRC or EPA Lead-Safe checks, and profiles show them as Not verified.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why isn't Fort Collins ranked when some companies cleared the bar?
A ranking needs 8 companies at 70% coverage and this area has 6. Ranking so few would treat a thin sample as a verdict, so their scores stay in a side-by-side table until more companies clear the bar.
Who licenses restoration contractors in Fort Collins or Loveland?
Not the state. When we checked in September 2026, Colorado's Department of Regulatory Agencies said general contractors and roofers aren't licensed at the state level and pointed homeowners to their city. Call the building department for the city where the property sits and ask what it requires.
