Steel loses nearly half its strength at 1,100°F (593°C) and concrete also weakens under high heat. That’s why fireproofing is non-negotiable in modern construction. But here’s the missing piece: if your fireproofing is underestimated or overestimated, you lose either way.

Underestimation

Projects get delayed. You stumble upon inspection failures which leads to costly rework and also safety risks.

Overestimation

You order extra materials, labour and get less profits due to overestimating your project.

Our FireStopping and Fireproofing Estimating Services

How Fireproofing is Different From Firestopping?

Fireproofing

Firestopping

It is the insulation coating on your walls, home and other parts to resist fire and heat. It is known as a passive fire protection.

It is about sealing gaps, joints and penetrations to stop fire and smoke from spreading between rooms or floors.

It focuses on making the structure (walls, columns, beams, and floors) itself fire-resistant, such as.

It focuses on blocking the openings within the structure, like around pipes, cables, or ducts.

Materials are applied over surfaces, for example, coatings, sprays, or boards that protect steel or concrete from heat.

Materials are inserted or applied into gaps for example, silicone sealants, firestop pillows, wraps, and putty pads.

The goal is to maintain structural stability during a fire.

The goal is to contain fire and smoke within one room to save the overall building.

Estimators calculate the insulation materials required for complete fire resistance, helping with accurate budget planning and cost control.

Estimators calculate all sealing materials and quantities required for precise installation planning and compliance.
