Wildfire risk on the Front Range
The Waldo Canyon (2012) and Black Forest (2013) fires were among the most destructive in Colorado history, and the wildland-urban interface on the west side, in Black Forest, and along Ute Pass remains at risk. Smoke and ash from nearby fires can damage homes that never burned: HVAC systems, insulation, and soft furnishings may need professional cleaning.

Frequently asked questions
Can wildfire smoke damage my home if it didn't burn?
Yes. Smoke and ash enter through vents and gaps, leaving odor and residue in ductwork, attics, and fabrics. Professional cleaning usually resolves it, and smoke damage is often covered.
Is fire and smoke damage covered by insurance?
Fire is a covered peril on almost every homeowners policy, including smoke and soot cleanup and the water used to put out the fire. Your policy and adjuster decide what is paid.
Should I clean soot myself?
No. Wiping soot can smear it permanently into paint and fabric. Wait for a professional assessment.
Had a fire?
Once the fire department clears the home, request help before you start cleaning.
