About Us
Engineered Fire Protection Solutions You Can Trust
A1 Fireproofing & Specialty Coatings is a licensed California specialty contractor (CA License #677386) based in Huntington Beach and mobilizing anywhere in California. We self-perform spray-applied cementitious fireproofing, intumescent coatings, protective coatings, patch and repair, and commercial painting for general contractors, developers, property managers, and building owners.
Our approach is simple: prep right, apply to spec, document everything, and leave the site clean. Fireproofing is life-safety work — we build every job to be inspected, because it will be. The same discipline runs through our Commercial Painting Division, from surface preparation to final coat.
Two trades, one contract. On projects carrying both a fireproofing and a paint scope, A1 delivers both with one subcontract, one insurance package, and one point of contact — fewer handoffs, tighter schedule, cleaner coordination.
