Question 1

What areas does Total Fire Compliance serve?

Accepted Answer

We serve healthcare, government, industrial, and commercial facilities throughout Florida and the Southeast, with crews mobilized for multi-site and multi-campus programs nationwide.

Question 2

Are your crews qualified to work in occupied healthcare space?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Our crews are trained on ICRA, ILSM, and infection-control protocols, badge through facility security, and work night and weekend phases so patient care is never interrupted.

Question 3

What documentation do we receive after the work?

Accepted Answer

Every project closes with an inspection-ready package: UL system numbers, barrier locations, before/after photos, and a deficiency log showing what was corrected and when.

Question 4

How fast can you mobilize for a survey deadline?

Accepted Answer

For an urgent Joint Commission, state, or AHJ survey we can typically walk the building within days and deliver a prioritized deficiency report in 24–48 hours after the walk.

Question 5

Do you carry insurance and licensing?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We are fully insured and licensed, and we provide certificates of insurance, safety records, and manufacturer certifications with every proposal.

Question 6

How is a project priced?

Accepted Answer

Pricing is scoped per penetration, per linear foot, or per barrier depending on the service. After a walkthrough you receive a line-item proposal — no allowances, no surprise change orders.

Question 7

Do you provide UL system documentation?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every install includes the specific UL system number, photographs, and an inspection-ready submittal package.

Question 8

Can you work in occupied healthcare environments?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Our crews are trained on ICRA, ILSM, and infection-control protocols for active patient-care areas.

Question 9

How do you handle deficiency surveys?

Accepted Answer

We deliver a deficiency report with location, photo, recommended UL system, and remediation cost within 24–48 hours.

Question 10

What deliverable do we get?

Accepted Answer

A structured report — barrier-by-barrier — with photos, deficiency type, location, and corrective recommendation.

Question 11

Do you re-inspect after corrections?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We perform verification walks and update documentation as items are closed.

Question 12

Do you coordinate with the building's IT team?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Active cabling is tested, tagged, and preserved before any abandoned-cable removal.

Question 13

Why does this matter?

Accepted Answer

An unprotected outlet box compromises the entire wall's fire rating. Putty pads restore listed-assembly integrity.

Question 14

Is wall stenciling required?

Accepted Answer

NFPA 101 and many AHJs require permanent identification of fire and smoke barriers — stenciling is the most accepted method.
