The Berthoud contractor picture

299: that is how many contractor and tradesperson records in our Colorado database carry a Berthoud address, enough for 39th place among the state's cities, with ZIP 80513 home to the largest share. Because Colorado leaves roofing, general contracting and HVAC to cities, we also pull municipal license lists. Berthoud firms hold 48 licenses on them (Arvada (19), Aurora (17) and Thornton (12)), among them 4 roofing licenses, 2 general contractor licenses and 7 HVAC/mechanical licenses. Most of the Berthoud list is made up of DORA-licensed tradespeople, specifically 180 electrical licenses (39 masters, 73 journeymen, 25 residential wiremen) and 97 plumbing licenses (34 masters, 28 journeymen).

10 profiles carry a state board discipline flag (5 plumbing, 5 electrical), and 6 of those licenses are still active. A flag can mean anything from a paperwork lapse to a serious finding, so read the board record behind it. Most entries are individual tradespeople (202), not companies. Only 20 active electrical contractor and 16 active plumbing contractor registrations are based here, and those are the businesses that can sell electrical or plumbing work to you directly. About 55% are active, in line with the 54% we see statewide, and 131 records have lapsed.

The median first-license year is 2001. 130 records predate 2000, and 23 licenses were first issued in 2024 or later.

Storm season in Berthoud

Per the RMIIA, Colorado's Front Range gets the highest frequency of large hail in North America, with three or four storms a year causing at least $25 million in insured damage. If a roofer knocks on your door after hail, two state rules apply: you can rescind an insurance-funded roofing contract within 72 hours of a written denial (C.R.S. 6-22-104), and promising to cover your deductible is illegal (C.R.S. 6-22-105).
