Fire Safety Inspections

Did you know that over 40% of businesses never reopen after having a fire? Of those that do reopen, 25% close within the next year after struggling to get back on their feet. These statistics from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) are quite sobering, and one of the reasons the Estes Valley Fire Protection District (EVFPD) works to ensure our businesses are fire safe. 

The mission statement of the Estes Valley Fire Protection District includes providing, “…the citizens and guests to the Estes Valley with superior fire prevention, fire protection, and emergency services”. As you might expect, we take our mission seriously, and work hard to live up to the standards put upon us by the public and those we impose on ourselves. 

Contact us at Prevention@EstesValleyFire.org to schedule your inspections. Let us help you make your business safe for you, your employees, and your customers.
