SII is primarily a commercial construction contractor and will work on multi-family dwelling projects. We generally do not solicit single family residential work unless very large.

Fireproofing, like all fire resistive products, does not have a rating by itself. Ratings are assigned to complete assemblies such as floors, roofs or walls which must be constructed in strict accordance with published test results in order to achieve the rating indicated. The use of fireproofing in conjunction with other components makes it possible to achieve ratings of up to 4 hrs.

Ratings are based on Building Code requirements and are determined based on the size of the building, its height, the number of stories, its use and whether it is sprinklered or not.

Fireproofing costs are based on many factors including the type of fireproofing used, what it is protecting and the ratings required.

Some fireproofing products are intended for tempered interior use whereas others can be used in untempered conditions and still others may be used for exterior use. Most fireproofing products are intended to be concealed from view in its end use, while others are intentional left exposed to view for dramatic effect. Of course, costs will vary among products and uses.

When properly installed and maintained, fireproofing will last for the life of the building.

Spray-applied fireproofing and insulation is SII’s forte. Although we are always eager to provide service to our customers, we generally do not solicit Batt or Rigid insulation work.
