Our Story: Firefighter-Owned and Operated
About Holladay Raines Fire Defense Systems
Founded by firefighters, Holladay Raines Fire Defense Systems was born from a deep-seated commitment to protecting the communities we serve.

Firefighter-Owned. Safety & Preparation is Who We Are.
Working on the front lines of wildfires across the Colorado landscape gave us a unique and urgent perspective on the importance of proactive defense. We saw firsthand how proper preparation could make the difference between devastation and a home left standing.

My name is Ian Holladay. I am a wild land firefighter from Fairbanks, Alaska.
As a firefighter, I have had the privilege to put in countless hours mitigating the risk fire can have on homes and communities. It is my privilege to be able to serve the public, do what I love, and make the world a more safe and better place.

Hi, I'm Julian Dow. I am a former wild land firefighter and logger from Central Washington.
My position as Lead Sawyer at Holladay Raines is without a doubt the best job I’ve ever had. I absolutely love working in the woods every day while helping to keep Colorado homes and forests safe. The company demands a very high standard of work while simultaneously allowing me the freedom to operate as I know best.

Our Mission
Our mission is to translate our real-world experience into practical, effective fire mitigation solutions for homeowners. We are a highly skilled team dedicated to making the Colorado Front Range a safer place for everyone. By performing expert risk assessments and creating defensible space and fuel breaks, we provide you with more than a service—we deliver peace of mind.

We believe that if we're not doing good work, then we're doing bad work. And we don't do bad work. We aim to meet the same quality of the brave men and women serving our country.

In a job that provides safety and protection, the is no room for error. We strive to make sure even the smallest pieces of our services are up to the highest standards.

We take care of our employees because we want them to have the freedom to enjoy their work, not worry about it. And when the day is over, we want them to enjoy their time off too.
