Our Process

How Fire Proofing Works

A proven, methodical approach refined over 20+ years of professional installation.

01

Project Review & Specification

We review architectural drawings and fire protection specifications to determine the required fire ratings, material types, and application thicknesses.

02

Site Preparation

Our crew prepares the structural steel and surrounding areas, ensuring clean surfaces for proper SFRM adhesion and protecting adjacent finishes.

03

SFRM Application

Fire-resistive material is spray-applied to the specified thickness on beams, columns, deck assemblies, and other structural members per project specifications.

04

Inspection & Documentation

We verify proper thickness and density, prepare documentation for building inspections, and coordinate with inspectors to ensure code compliance.

Why Choose Us

Why Our Fire Proofing Stands Out

Fireproofing is a critical passive fire protection system that safeguards structural elements — including steel beams, columns, metal decking, and concrete assemblies — from the extreme temperatures generated during a fire. Spray-applied fire-resistive materials (SFRM) are the industry standard for commercial construction, providing fire ratings of up to 4 hours for floor and roof deck assemblies, steel beams, columns, and joists. Sky Insulation delivers professional fireproofing services for commercial, industrial, and multi-family construction projects throughout the Denver metro area. Our certified fireproofing crews apply SFRM products to exposed structural steel and other building components, thermally insulating them to delay or prevent structural failure during a fire. This passive fire protection approach is essential for meeting the fire resistance requirements outlined in the Denver Building Code and International Building Code (IBC). From high-rise office towers and mixed-use developments to schools, hospitals, and manufacturing facilities, Sky Insulation provides code-compliant fireproofing solutions that protect occupants, preserve structural integrity, and satisfy inspection requirements. With over two decades of industry experience, Sky Insulation understands that fireproofing is not just about compliance — it is about protecting lives and investments. Our SFRM applications also provide secondary benefits including thermal insulation and acoustic treatment for large open areas with exposed structural members.

FAQ

Common Questions About Fire Proofing

SFRM (Spray-Applied Fire-Resistive Material) is a cementitious or mineral-fiber material sprayed onto structural steel, metal decking, and other building components to provide passive fire protection. It insulates structural members from extreme heat during a fire, delaying or preventing structural failure.

SFRM can provide fire resistance ratings from 1 to 4 hours depending on the material, thickness, and structural assembly. The required rating is determined by building type, height, and occupancy per the Denver Building Code and IBC.

The Denver Building Code requires specific fire resistance ratings for structural assemblies based on the building's construction type, height, area, and occupancy classification. Most commercial, multi-family, and institutional buildings require some level of structural fireproofing.

Installation time depends on the project scope, structural steel tonnage, and access conditions. Our experienced crews work efficiently to minimize schedule impact, and we coordinate closely with general contractors to align with construction sequencing.
