Best Fireproofing Estimating Services in Canada
Construction Estimating Inc stands as Canada's premier provider of fireproofing estimating services. Our specialized team understands the critical importance of fire protection systems for life safety, property protection, and code compliance across Canada's diverse construction markets.
With over 9 years of experience serving fire protection contractors across all provinces, we provide comprehensive cost estimates for all fireproofing applications including spray-applied fireproofing (SFRM), intumescent coatings, firestopping systems, and fire-rated assemblies. Our expertise covers both passive and active fire protection systems designed to meet Canadian fire safety codes and NFPA standards.
We specialize in detailed quantity takeoffs for fireproofing systems that ensure compliance with the National Building Code of Canada, provincial fire codes, and municipal safety requirements. Our estimators understand UL designs, fire resistance ratings, and the complexities of structural steel protection, penetration sealing, and compartmentalization systems essential for Canadian construction projects.
Our fireproofing estimates cover everything from cementitious spray-applied materials to advanced intumescent coatings and firestopping assemblies. We provide detailed calculations for structural steel protection, penetration seals, fire-rated walls, and specialty applications to ensure complete life safety compliance for Canadian fire protection contractors.
Spray-Applied Fireproofing
Comprehensive estimates for cementitious and mineral fiber SFRM systems. We calculate coverage areas, thickness requirements, and application rates for structural steel protection and fire resistance ratings up to 8 hours.
Intumescent Coatings
Detailed takeoffs for thin-film and thick-film intumescent systems. Our estimates include surface preparation, primer application, and finish coats for architecturally exposed structural steel and decorative fireproofing applications.
Firestopping Systems
Accurate estimates for penetration seals, joint systems, and through-penetration firestopping. We provide comprehensive calculations for UL-listed assemblies, fire-rated construction, and compartmentalization systems.
