The Nance Family has a long history in Colorado’s construction industry. Clyde Nance was a superintendent for General Contractors in the area like GH Phipps and Swinerton during the 1950’s and 1960’s. Clyde’s son, Ralph Nance, spent the majority of his career in earthwork after spending many summers working for Clyde doing concrete and carpentry. Ralph and his wife, Dee, made the decision to start their own company, Front Range Excavating, Inc., in the summer of 1988. Since then, Front Range Excavating, Inc. has laid the groundwork for over a thousand projects around the greater Denver Metro Area. Their legacy continues with their son, Scott Nance and his wife, Tricia, who now own and continue to operate FRE Civil Contractors.
After 20 years in the earthwork business, Scott and Tricia saw an opportunity to increase their service offerings. Now, in addition to earthwork, they self-perform wet utilities and offer full-service civil construction packages for their customers, in addition to the roll-off dumpster services for commercial and residential customers through Construction Roll-Off LLC.
Construction Roll Off is honored to be featured as an investor spotlight for the Arvada Chamber B.O.L.D. 2026 initiative. B.O.L.D. 2026 is a five-year program focused on regional economic strength and resiliency, developed by the Arvada Chamber of Commerce in collaboration with private and public sector leaders and partners from Arvada, Jefferson/Adams Counties, Metro Denver, and the state of Colorado.
Our decision to invest in the B.O.L.D. 2026 initiative stems from our belief in the importance of providing high school students with more education about career opportunities in the trades. We hope that these initiatives will spark growth in the construction industry and highlight the numerous opportunities available for young people to build successful careers without the necessity of a college degree.
