It Started With One Client
For Chris and Shannon Wood, Falcon and the surrounding community have always been home.
Their story began in the fourth grade at Peyton School. They grew up together, graduated together, and married in 1999. Not long after, they built their first home in Falcon right behind Safeway, back when their construction photos showed little more than a bare foundation and the Safeway in the background.
In 2005, Chris and Shannon took another leap together and opened Pikes Peak Insurance Agency with just one client. Today that one policy has grown into almost 3,000, but the heart of the agency has stayed the same: family, relationships, and taking care of the people in the community they call home.
Chris and Shannon have four children, Brian, Bailee, Kilee and Jaxon, and family is still a big part of Pikes Peak Insurance. Kilee and Jaxon now work alongside their parents at the agency. Brian lives in Grand Junction with his wife, while Bailee and Kilee give back to the community by coaching the Falcon Bombers. And when Chris isn't at the office, there's a good chance you'll find him on a football field, helping Jaxon coach.
In August 2020, Pikes Peak Insurance moved into the State Bank Building on McLaughlin Road, just minutes from the neighborhood where Chris and Shannon still live today.
And maybe that's what makes Pikes Peak Insurance a little different.
The people looking after your home, your vehicles and your business aren't strangers in a call center somewhere. They're your neighbors. Their kids grew up here and graduated from Falcon High School. They shop at the same stores, support the same schools, coach on the same fields, and care about this community because it's their community, too.

What Being Independent Actually Buys You
Four things a captive agent down the road structurally cannot offer.
19 carriers, one application
We are not owned by an insurance company, so we have no quota to fill and no reason to prefer one carrier over the one that actually fits you.
The same people every year
Switching carriers at renewal does not mean starting over with a stranger. Same office, same names, same extension you already have saved.
Someone in your corner at claim time
Call us before you call the carrier and we deal with them alongside you. An independent agent can advocate for you, which is the moment the whole relationship earns out.
Local, without being small
Our office is in Falcon and we know these neighborhoods, but we write coverage across Colorado and Arizona, and life insurance in .
A Bigger Toolbox, the Same Front Door
Pikes Peak Insurance Agency is now part of Inszone Insurance Services, one of the country's larger independent brokerages. For you, the front door has not moved: same office on McLaughlin Road, same team, same number to call.
What changed is what we can reach for on your behalf. A national network brings more carrier appointments, specialist underwriting for the risks a small agency would have to turn away, and back-office support that keeps our agents doing the part that matters instead of paperwork.
Practically, that means more options when your home is hard to place, better answers on commercial coverage, and a wider net when a carrier hikes your renewal. It is the reach of a national brokerage with a Falcon phone number attached to it.
