Prepare for the Unexpected With Engineered Fire Protection Solutions

Structure fires cause thousands of injuries and billions of dollars in property damage each year. They often strike when you least expect them.

Don’t be caught off guard. Firestopping & Fire Consulting (FFC) helps Iowa builders ensure they meet the highest standards for fire resistance during construction. We do this through firestop installation, fire consulting, and firestop training services. Our work slows the spread of fire down dramatically, giving people and firefighters extra time to exit the building.

We bring decades of experience and are up to date on the latest changes to local building codes and fire standards. This ensures you receive the top safety recommendations in the industry.

Our team isn’t here to just help you check a box. We’re here to equip you to contain and stop fires, long before they start.

We use only code-compliant firestop materials to make sure your building's fire compartments remain intact.
