FAQ

Fire Protection FAQs

Is fire protection work subcontracted?

Sprinkler and alarm systems are always designed and installed by licensed fire protection contractors — we manage scope, schedule, and inspections as your GC. It's flagged as a separate licensed scope in every estimate.

What's a deferred submittal?

A scope (commonly sprinkler reconfiguration) submitted for permit after the main building permit — we manage the timing so it never stalls the schedule.

Do tenant improvements trigger sprinkler changes?

Usually, yes — new walls change coverage requirements. We price it as a clearly-flagged allowance until the licensed sub's design is complete.

Can you fix failed fire inspections?

Yes — we diagnose failure points, correct rated assemblies and device issues, and get you to reinspection.
