Colorado Builder and Remodeler Elected Second Vice Chairman of NAHB

Bob Peterson, a Fort Collins, Colo.-based remodeler and home builder with more than 40 years of experience in the construction field, today was elected 2025 second vice chairman of the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) during the association’s International Builders’ Show in Las Vegas.

Peterson is the founder of Associates in Building + Design, Ltd. (ABD), a company he started in May 1990 that specializes in custom homes and high-end remodeling. Peterson’s daughters, Heather Schreiner and Alison Johnson, now own and manage ABD, where he serves as a consultant.

“Our focus this year will be working with policymakers to ease burdensome regulations that needlessly raise housing and remodeling costs,” said Peterson. “We will also seek to keep housing a top national priority and work with officials at all levels of government to ease the barriers that hinder the construction of new homes and apartments.”

Peterson has been active in the NAHB leadership structure at the local, state and national levels throughout his career. He currently serves on NAHB’s State and Local Issues Committee, the NAHB Budget and Finance Committee and as NAHB National Area 13 Chairman. Peterson also previously served as the National Chairman of the NAHB Remodelers and was inducted into the NAHB Remodelers Hall of Fame in 2021.

Peterson twice served as the president at the Colorado Association of Home Builders and Northern Colorado Home Builders Association. In 2008, he was Colorado Home Builder of the Year. He was NAHB’s Remodeler of the Year in 2007, the Colorado Remodeler of the Year in 2002, and Northern Colorado Home Builders Association Remodeler of the Year in 1997. He is also the recipient of many other local and state design awards.

Committed to continuing education, Peterson is certified to teach seven NAHB designation courses nationwide. In conjunction with NAHB, he trains his peers through several continuing education classes.

Peterson resides in Windsor, Colo., and holds BA and MA degrees from the University of Northern Colorado.

NAHB’s newly elected senior officers serve on a multi-year leadership ladder. Peterson will become chairman of NAHB’s Board of Directors in 2027.
