Certified Firestopping Solutions You Can Trust
At OJ Specialty Contracting, we provide expert firestopping and acoustical sealant systems for commercial and residential projects across California. Our team specializes in installing firestop sealants, fire-rated joint systems, through-penetration assemblies, intumescent coatings, and perimeter fire containment—all designed to meet stringent building codes and life safety requirements.
Why Firestopping Matters
Fire containment isn’t just a code requirement—it’s critical for protecting lives and property. Firestopping helps prevent the spread of fire, smoke, and toxic gases through walls, floors, and ceilings by sealing penetrations and joints in fire-rated assemblies. These passive fire protection systems work alongside active systems like sprinklers and alarms to keep your building safe and compliant.
How Firestopping Works
Firestopping creates compartments within a structure by sealing openings in fire-rated walls, floors, and joints. This helps maintain the fire-resistance rating of the assembly and slows the spread of fire.
Important: Firestop materials alone don’t carry a fire rating—the entire system (including penetrations, sealants, and surrounding components) must be tested and approved by agencies like UL.
