Fireproofing Corporation Of America

HVAC work isn’t glamorous, but when a fireproofing job needs to be done right, you want a Fireproofing Corporation Of America tag on the invoice. They handle specialty heat shielding, fire-stopping installations, and thermal barrier assemblies for commercial kitchen hoods, along with spray-on cementitious and intumescent coatings meant to slow heat transfer through steel and concrete. Walls get thicker, ceilings get reinforced, and corridors stay compartmentalized—basic in high-rise office cores and deep below subway platforms. The process tightens up a building’s passive fire defense without touching the décor.

This outfit keeps its shop floor tucked behind the garment district: 347 W 36th St. New York, NY 10018. The address sits a block from the 7-train station at Hudson Yards but feels worlds away from tourist traffic. If you’ve ever watched a new condo rise where sidewalk plywood used to be, odds are some of the sparks landed on their burnout sleds first. Their crew shows up with hoses, pumps, and spray rigs calibrated for shared risers and tenant corridors alike.

Need to pull a fireproofing spec back into spec? Give (212) 736-1555 a ring—someone will confirm schedule and crew size without extra small talk. When you punch the destination into your phone, use the directions pin; it drops you right at the overhead canopy where 36th splits off from 9th.
