Nick Lambert

Nicholas (Nick) Lambert is the founder of Faithful Disaster Restoration, Inc., which he established in 2005. Over nearly two decades, the company has grown into Montana's largest locally owned and operated restoration firm. Faithful Disaster Restoration is also the highest-rated restoration company in Montana, a testament to its strong culture and dedicated staff.

Since 2021, Nick has been a silent owner, stepping away from daily operations. His experience in building and scaling a service-oriented business has made him a sought-after consultant for other service business owners.

In 2023, Nick founded 1.21 Leadership Consulting and Culture Training, driven by his passion for transforming business cultures and enabling owners to step back from daily operations to pursue their dreams.

Nick is an entrepreneur at heart.   He is currently working at several business ventures outside of the restoration field.

Nick is also author of an upcoming book called “Never Say Die”.

Nick lives in Northlake, Texas, with his wife, Jennifer, and their three children, Madison, Makenzie, and Camden. He enjoys sports, concerts, and all things 80s.
