In Colorado, the beauty of living near nature comes with a growing concern: wildfires. The ever-increasing threat makes it crucial to fortify our homes with fire-resistant materials.
In the past, some Homeowners Associations, or HOAs, have required specific materials for fences, siding, and roofing that may actually increase the risk of wildfire damage.
The devastation caused by wildfires can be catastrophic, particularly for homes built with flammable materials like wood.
But a new law passed in Colorado changes this. Now, HOAs can no longer prevent homeowners from using fire-hardened building materials that can offer much-needed protection.
Let’s learn more about how this law could empower you as a homeowner.

But a new law passed in Colorado changes this. Now, HOAs can no longer prevent homeowners from using fire-hardened building materials that can offer much-needed protection.
According to the bill, ‘ANY PROVISION…THAT PROHIBITS THE INSTALLATION, USE, OR MAINTENANCE OF FIRE-HARDENED BUILDING MATERIALS…IS VOID AND UNENFORCEABLE.
This empowers homeowners across the state to choose materials that will protect their homes. These include fire-resistant siding like stucco and roofing materials like metal.
With stone-coated steel metal roofing, your home is better protected against flying embers. It’s durable, low-maintenance, and an excellent long-term investment.
In wildfire-prone areas, a metal roof serves as a strong first line of defense, preventing embers from penetrating and spreading flames.
Thanks to this new legislation, you can protect your family and property with peace of mind, knowing that your HOA can no longer prevent you from using these fire-hardened materials.
