Mechanical Insulation
Our mechanical insulation services are designed to optimize system performance, improve energy efficiency, and maintain occupant comfort while supporting fire and safety objectives. We insulate pipes, ductwork, boilers, chillers, and equipment using premium materials—fiberglass, mineral wool, closed-cell foam, and specialty facings—selected to match your application and California’s Title 24 requirements. Proper insulation controls heat loss, prevents condensation, reduces noise, and extends the life of mechanical systems, delivering measurable operating-cost savings over time. We coordinate closely with HVAC, plumbing, and industrial trades to ensure correct sequencing, precise fabrication, and clean installations on accelerated construction schedules. From hospitals and schools to high-rise residential and industrial facilities, our team provides field expertise, specification compliance, and quality assurance that meets owner and contractor expectations. Choose California Fire Stop, Inc. to deliver turnkey insulation that performs reliably and integrates seamlessly with firestopping and other life-safety systems.
Seismic Expansion Joints
In seismic-prone California, expansion joints are critical to structural safety and building performance. California Fire Stop, Inc. installs and maintains seismic expansion joint systems that accommodate building movement from earthquakes, thermal cycling, and differential settlement while maintaining fire, smoke, and water barriers. We work with Watson Bowman and other industry-leading products to specify and install joints for floors, walls, roofs, and curtain walls—tailored for hospitals, airports, parking structures, campuses, and high-rises. Our approach integrates expansion joint installation with firestopping, waterproofing, and architectural finishes so the joint functions without compromising code compliance or aesthetics. We understand OSHPD, IBC, and NFPA requirements and coordinate with structural and architectural teams to deliver solutions that reduce downtime, simplify inspections, and preserve long-term structural integrity. Trust our seismic joint experts to keep occupants safe, buildings resilient, and projects inspection-ready across California.
Intumescent Coatings
Intumescent coatings deliver high-performance fire protection for exposed structural steel and architectural elements without bulky encasements. At California Fire Stop, Inc., we apply water- and solvent-based intumescent systems that expand under extreme heat to form an insulating char, preserving steel strength and providing UL-classified fire ratings. Our certified applicators focus on meticulous surface preparation, accurate mil-thickness application, and rigorous quality control to ensure consistent, code-compliant results. These coatings are ideal for projects that require aesthetic finishes—exposed beams, columns, and open ceilings—while still meeting strict insurance and building-code demands. We serve commercial high-rises, residential towers, schools, and industrial facilities, advising on lifecycle maintenance and recoat strategies to protect your investment. If your design calls for concealed or exposed protection with minimal visual impact, our intumescent solutions combine engineering expertise and craft-level application to meet performance, schedule, and appearance goals.
Fire Wrap
Fire wrap systems protect critical building components and mechanical systems where traditional protection is impractical. California Fire Stop, Inc. installs UL-classified, lightweight flexible wraps for grease ducts, kitchen exhaust systems, cable tray penetrations, fuel lines, and other vulnerable assemblies. These wraps are engineered to limit heat transfer, slow flame spread, and preserve compartmentation—extending evacuation time and protecting adjacent systems. Our installers are experienced in tight, congested conditions and coordinate with mechanical and electrical trades to integrate wraps with firestopping and insulation systems. Whether you’re planning new construction, a retrofit, or completing a life-safety upgrade, our fire wrap solutions are selected and installed to meet ASTM, UL, and local code requirements. Rely on California Fire Stop, Inc. for dependable products, professional installation, and documentation that satisfies inspectors and protects occupants and assets.
Joint Sealants & Architectural Caulking
Proper joint sealants and architectural caulking protect buildings from water intrusion, air leakage, and premature deterioration—while also contributing to fire and smoke compartmentation. California Fire Stop, Inc. seals expansion joints, window and curtain wall perimeters, precast and masonry joints, and wet-area transitions using premium silicone, polyurethane, and hybrid sealants selected for adhesion, movement capability, and UV durability. Our technicians deliver clean, consistent tooling and finished lines that meet both aesthetic expectations and performance requirements in California’s diverse climate. Integrated with waterproofing and firestopping systems, our caulking work helps prevent mold, energy loss, and structural damage—reducing long-term maintenance costs for owners and contractors. We provide specification review, mock-ups, and warranty-backed installations so your façade, envelope, and interior wet areas remain attractive, weather-tight, and code-compliant.
